All extensions not enabled ?

Hi all,
I'm trying to recover 3ds max files from an image of a reconstructed raid.
But in the options of photorec ,this extension is not listed.
Do I need to do something extra to enable some of the filesystem types list on on the wiki ?
Thanks for your suggestions.
Kind regards,
Koen

3ds uses the doc/xls/ppt OLE based file format.

Thanks Grenier for the reply.
That's what I figured out reading the code from the wiki meanwhile
.
http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/File_For ... y_PhotoRec
Code: Select all
const file_hint_t file_hint_doc= {
.extension="doc",
.description="Microsoft Office Document (doc/xls/ppt/vsd/...), 3ds Max, MetaStock, Wilcom ES",
.min_header_distance=0,
.max_filesize=PHOTOREC_MAX_FILE_SIZE,
.recover=1,
.enable_by_default=1,
.register_header_check=®ister_header_check_doc
};
source :
http://git.cgsecurity.org/cgit/testdisk ... file_doc.c
Question is , will it recover the file as .3ds file ,or as .doc file ?
My guess it'll return it with the extension .max instead of .3ds , correct ?
Code: Select all
case 12:
/* 3ds max */
if(memcmp(dir_entry->name, "S\0c\0e\0n\0e\0\0\0",12)==0)
return "max";
/* Licom AlphaCAM */
else if(memcmp(dir_entry->name,"L\0i\0c\0o\0m\0\0\0",12)==0)
return "amb";
break;

Correct. If you get your files as .doc, please send me one of your .3ds files.
