Context

The devs are currently A/B testing a new method to update the game more efficiently by using chunks. This is noticeably more complex than the conventional method, hence this issue.

Motivation

The current install script is far from perfect but does serve its purpose for those who would like to use it. If this chunk-based method becomes mandatory, other 3rd party installers/launchers could benefit from any open-source implementation that is available.

API documentation (WIP)

Tree view of the data structure:

json
- Similar to the known resource
manifest file
- File names and patch offsets (?)
chunk data
- Also zstd-compressed
- Unknown relation with the files generated by the launcher

Main JSON

see updater/sophon/updater.py

Manifest file

see updater/sophon/updater.py

EDIT 2024-04-25: Received a proto definition and further explanation. Currently clarifying licensing matters.

Chunk data (segments?)

Source: Main JSON. URL:
- ".data .manifests[] .chunk_download .url_prefix" + "/" + <hash of length 17>_<hash of length 32>
File format: zstd-compressed
- zstd -d FILENAME -o output

Chunk data (launcher)

Source: unknown. Possibly assembled or renamed from the section above
Destination: GAMEDIR/chunk/
File name: (32 bytes), hash
- _tmp is used during download.

As of 4.8.0, pre-download zip archives are no longer provided by the resource.json file.

Solution 1: Use the HoYoPlay launcher

Chunk-based is used by default
zip archives are used if present inside the game directory

Solution 2: Use the freshly updated update_gi.sh script (incomplete CN support)

Same CLI syntax as usual.

EDIT 2024-07-17: Update according to latest Git commit.

I tried the predownload yesterday using the updated update_gi.sh script but it wouldn't budge

Today, it's complaining about the missing patch folder for 480.

Since there isn't anything version-specific anymore in the patch scripts (they're not doing much besides mentioning the dns blockage), I simply copied the folder to 480 after which it happily downloads the patch.

jq: error (at <stdin>:1): Cannot index array with string "version"
 -- exit cleanup done --
 ?=5

Must be from this code:

if [ -n "$sdk_json" ]; then
	sdk_version=`<<< "$sdk_json" jq -r -M ".version"`
	sed -i "s/^sdk_version=.*/sdk_version=${sdk_version}/" "$CONFIG_FILE"
fi

There is no sdk_version in my config.ini anyway and game_version shows 4.8.0 already.

@FichteFoll This issue is mainly about the "new" python script. Please open a new issue if you run into issues with the update_gi.sh script.

The errors should be resolved as of ~~5c2441c~~ ff5bb86.
