Can BO2 DLC5 maps be brought back by modding?

Fr0s_ty_ That error is the game telling you it's not a PC fastfile at all. The -1845493760 version is 0x92000000 in hex, which is the 360 build's version byte (146) read backwards. Console fastfiles are big-endian, PC wants little-endian 147. You're feeding Plutonium the raw 360 zone straight from the leak, so it's rejecting it. Hex editing the header to 147 won't get you anywhere either, everything inside is still big-endian console data.
To actually get it working you'd need to:
- Build a zone tool that reads 360 zones and writes PC ones (I started from OpenAssetTools and added Xenon loaders)
- Convert every asset type to the PC layout, rebuild the images into a PC ipak, and transcode the XMA audio
- Remap all the materials to PC shader sets, since console shaders are compiled Xenos GPU code and will never run on PC
- Ship a mod package + scripts to fill the gaps the console zone can't cover
- Then debug crashes one asset type at a time, diffing against retail zones as your reference
It's a byte-level format conversion. Took months of reverse engineering to crack what was halting loading. I do plan on releasing all of my source code at some point, so if you'd rather not fight through all that yourself, keep an eye out.

Here's a quick showcase video I made: https://youtu.be/7IQT6hc4vek?si=P56vKBVMzLFIj0OV
Nacht is nearing completion, will be transitioning to working on the rest of the maps next. If anyone's interested in bug testing, reply to this message or reach out to me on Discord: logo2k
Feedback is much appreciated. I'll probably start a new thread soon.

Logo This is nuts, I have been following this thread for about a week now and was so convinced that this was all a troll. This is crazy, will this release include the unreleased guns that were in the maps like the FAL OSW? This genuinely looks better than BO3's chronicles in terms of atmosphere. Super hyped!

Logo If theres a server for it I'd be interested in trying to help test the map pack, not sure how much use I'd be though compared to others but I know how to play zombies at least
binaryO_O Awesome, the more the merrier! Nothing to release quite yet but soon. I'll be posting a new thread as soon as there's something to release.
Here's a link to where progress is being generally posted, both myself and other unrelated ones: https://discord.gg/PPZDt4YSS

Mr.Something Yup, that's the plan. Whole thing should be done within a few weeks.
Logo eres un modder? Osea alguien que hace mods o eso creo que significa, saben si existe un mod donde añada no solo más Perks y más armas, si no que añada la blundergat a TranZit y electric cherry a TranZit. Todos los Perks, en total conté que hay 12 Perks en bo2 zombies, me gustaría tener esos 12 Perks en un solo mapa.

JinseiLord Hay otros mods publicados aquí en los foros de Plutonium. Creo que vi uno que añade todas las ventajas y armas.

Progress is going great, I was able to fully load in now and Nacht is playable outside of a few random crashes. Oh, and the bloom lighting is bugged out with the wrong colors. Did I mistakenly load into Rave in the Redwoods? lol
This whole DLC pack is certainly able to be ported, the floodgates are open after I cracked what was halting loading. The rest is relatively easy to work through.

yes.. it is currently in beta.

can someone please link the beta 2 update via a simple linked zip file? I'm on linux and a code or exe wont work for the OS
