the extension can be guessed, bc some file formats have a header somewhere at the start of the file content... means when you unpack them, you can derive some extra info

in certain constellations, i think it still is possible to have some lost media in there.
have not looked that deep into how stormlib works though.

Had the same idea for those "listfile removed" mods. In theory could just peek at every file and find if it's an ADT, get their index and the WDT etc. M2's have a name, too (plus being referenced by the Dbc) etc etc.

well, then it wouldn't be in a release build though. Also the devs/artists most certainly ran without MPQ and it'd be part of the build process, I hope

I think it can make it faster to check if the file exist ?
