Quote: After some communication, as far as I know the current state on CASC files isBeing able to push into them is nothing I think that would be a problem with private servers. As the server is emulated, it most likely won't push/repair the clients archives magically. (just like stuff like warden is not active on emulated servers; even less blizzard being able to push stuff to warden when playing on a private server)
- reading is completely possible
- listfiles, i.e. filenames are currently not properly available -> you can extract files but don't know what file they are
- writing is not even tried

Quote: Just FYI the CASC file type is still being configured. And until there someone reverse-engineers the new file type and creates an editor (similar to the current MPQ editor). It will be unlikely any of the new data can be extracted.

You can find the code here:
https://github.com/justMaku/blte
It's highly experimental, but feedback is more than welcome.
I will be accepting any pull requests, so feel free to contribute, one thing that is missing for sure is the file header recognition for WMO, M2, and other WoW specific files - I've only added BLP and MP3, rest is up to you guys.
