Unpack Csd Files Steam
May 26, 2011 www.goed.yolasite.com to download the phoenix program Hi today i am going to show you how to use the phoenix sid unpacker 1st mount a.
Examining the .csd
in a text editor shows a ZIP file header, and upon extracting the .csd
with 7zip, does show at least one file's contents, apparently unencrypted - I can open one of the DLLs from the game side by side, and it matches for the entire file, with an identical SHA-1. It's probable that the .csm
contains a set of byte ranges for each file within the .csd
file for Steam to restore the backup, but the on-disk format is thus likely to just be a series of zipped files concatenated.
However, this does make it less likely that the backups will be useful for populating a Steam cache, as the content on-disk on the cache is encrypted, and I have no desire to facilitate decrypting the content therein, or attempt re-encryption of a backup to rehost it via the cache.
For one, to do so would likely be a violation of the Steam terms of service (in spirit, even if not in fact), and second because if we wanted to do that we could simply host a fileshare containing backups of each title we were playing at a LAN. The seamless nature of using the Steam cache is its biggest asset as an event organiser.
Secondly, allowing re-encryption of content would then enable bad actors to utilise a Steam cache as an attack vector onto client machines.
I'm going to close this issue - thanks for your investigation of this, but I think it's safe to assume this avenue is no longer useful. I do hope to get back to improved methods of populating a cache shortly - I mentioned recently in another issue that there is a script we built using steamcmd
that allows for the downloading of titles that your account is licensed to own.
