Frostbite model tools (Battlefield, Battlefront and others)

Tried the script on the Python full game dump and got this error.

Is it possible to convert an ebx file to txt in the newer games?

Did you managed to convert ebx2txt for NFS Payback? I still have no luck not even with audio conversion, tools/scripts for SWBF2beta or FULL do not work.

[daemon1]

this is for NFS audio

Still having issues with the audio extractor script. Loads the tools and nothing else happens. Is there anything special I need to do or look for?

No, audio script works like before and it extracts the audio. You need to set in/out paths, path to ealayer3.exe as is was in other games, and it should work.

I used the NFS fb3decoder and it detected everytthing and ran down a list of all the ebx files but there were no audio files extracted...

Edit: this was for the SWBF2 dumps

use SWBF2 decoder for SWBF2 dumps!

I have all the paths set fine. (Using your tool to dump the whole game in folders)

Code: Select all

#Choose where you dumped the files and where to put the decoded audio:
dumpDirectory   = r"E:\Kiennen\Games\EXTRACT\SWBF2Dump"
#dumpDirectory   = r"H:\my projects\FrostByte\extracted_data"
targetDirectory = r"E:\Kiennen\Games\EXTRACT\swbf2sound"

#Download Zench's tool so the script can handle EALayer3.
ealayer3Path=r"E:\Kiennen\Games\EXTRACT\ealayer3-0.7.0-win32\ealayer3.exe"

Then it just loads the tools and ends, unless I'm not patient enough and something will start to happen in a little.

Code: Select all

Should I try on a different system maybe? My PC always seems to give me weird issues.

use SWBF2 decoder for SWBF2 dumps!

Where can I find it?

Still having problems with the decoder. It reads in the EBX files but no sound files appear in the directory. Also got this error:

KeyError: 16685

Update: I manage to extract the lightsaber sound files by specifying the ebx directory to only lightsaber. I assume, error appears becasue not all chunks or ebx files has been extracted...

no its because some EBX files you have there are NOT audio EBX, and i had no time to fix it.
just remove non-audio EBX

this is for NFS audio

Thank you, it works nicely, now only thing left is the ability to convert ebx2txt and we are all set hehe.

Thank you that was quick.

that was for swbf2

i never had time to correct that old script to properly parse types. maybe some day
