# 📥 WAITING FOR ASSET TRANSFER

**Status:** User is pulling 1.44 GB of RR3 assets from phone using Copilot CLI on their local Windows PC

---

## ✅ CURRENT ACTIVITY (User's Local PC)

User's local Copilot CLI is:
- Running ADB commands to pull from phone
- Extracting everything RR3-related
- Organizing into local folder
- **Size:** 1.44 GB (full game assets from EA CDN)

---

## 📋 WHEN TRANSFER COMPLETES - NEXT STEPS

### 1. Tell Me What You Got
Let me know:
- How many files extracted?
- What file types (.pak, .pka, .z, etc.)?
- Total size after extraction?
- Any interesting folder structure?

### 2. Transfer to OVH Server

**Option A: RDP Copy (Fastest if on same network)**
```
1. In RDP session to OVH server
2. Copy from your PC folder
3. Paste to: E:\rr3\phone-assets-full\
```

**Option B: Google Drive (Reliable, slower)**
```
1. On YOUR PC: Compress folder to ZIP
2. Upload to Google Drive
3. On OVH server: Download from G:\My Drive\
4. Extract to E:\rr3\phone-assets-full\
```

**Option C: Direct Network Share (If possible)**
```
1. Share folder on your PC
2. Map network drive on OVH server
3. Copy directly
```

### 3. Analysis Phase (I'll Handle This)

Once files are on server at `E:\rr3\phone-assets-full\`:
- Count and categorize all files
- Compare against asset manifests (114,307 files catalogued)
- Extract .z compressed textures
- Map file structure to CDN paths
- Identify cars, tracks, and content
- Create master asset index
- Verify MD5 hashes

### 4. Preservation

- Archive complete asset collection
- Document findings
- Prepare for Internet Archive upload
- Share with RR3 community

## 🎯 EXPECTED FILES

Based on asset manifests, you should get:

### File Types:
- `.pak` - 3D model packages
- `.pka` - Asset archives
- `.z` - Compressed textures (ZLIB)
- `.dds` - DirectDraw Surface textures
- `.pvr` - PowerVR textures
- `.bin` / `.dat` - Binary game data

- Cost EA millions to create
- Were downloaded from live CDN before shutdown
- May never be accessible again after March 2026

- Enable complete game preservation

**This is HISTORIC game preservation work!** 🏁✨
