P3Q Datamining Roadblock: .anno files?

Hi everyone... I have been snooping through the files of P3Q and have found one roadblock in this kind of totally inadvisable quest that I'd like to drag other nerds into.

First of all, I'm using this mod of AssetStudio [the original one by perfare doesn't work for the Unity version that P3Q is made in, and even this new one shows some issues in the terminal... but at least everything loaded in.]

I'm also following this tutorial from the Pathologic Modding Wiki for changing assets.

Now... to the roadblock itself & some workarounds that haven't worked as of right now.

When you load in all of the files and sort by TextAsset, you'll get a lot of files whose containers end in .anno, and the contents are entirely unreadable.

They seem to be related to voiceovers in English and Russian, because the container path has voicover in it, and only ever mentions those languages.

I've tried bringing in the file into Notepad++ and changing the encoding, but nothing makes it more readable.

I've also looked up the file extension, and the closest I could find is this 20 year old page for a lipsyncing software. I've tried downloading the demo for it here [cue Silent Hill "My dick has led me to places I wouldn't go to with a gun" meme] and loading the .anno file in there, but it needs a .wav file to go along with it that I don't have. I've tried putting random .wav files in there and nothing happens.

[Love how creepy this application is though.]

So... that is my issue. I have no idea what these .anno files are and how to read them. I found one that was between Daniil, Andrey, and the Changeling, and it is driving me mad. I want the forbidden fruit.

Obviously I can and should wait for the full game, but I love roping people into my highly specific endeavors.

[My theory is that the 'text' in the file represents phonemes, which the game then uses to splice together animations for lip syncing. So, they might not even be readable... but... yes.]

In cooler news, I was snooping around the mesh files, and I think the P3Q Polyhedron uses the Exact same model as the P2 Polyhedron, but with some additional meshes and new textures.

[The additional parts I believe are called "Small_Part_##"]

I have to remember how I ripped buildings from P2 with all of their parts and props [I have the Polyhedron, along with Peter's whole damn house], but I think you have to go through the Scene Hierarchy tab + export as something besides OBJ.... I don't even remember.

Okay. Thanks everyone.

well if Nostradamus said so✨

Also I know that this will only speak to the french audiences so quick lesson : - "Macron" is...well...current french president - "pétasse" can be translated by "bitch" or "cunt" or any other lovely word you can think of it 😊🌼 - "tkt" is the abbreviation in text messaging of "t'inquiète" and the direct translation of "dw/don't worry" in this case
