Frostbite model tools (Battlefield, Battlefront and others)

[daemon1]

the new tool i made - UFBE can unpack all unpatched files from Battlefield 1. No need for scripts.

Yes sir, I know and its very nice to have it as one option, but was hoping for a script that actually extracts everything including patched/DLCs and all

as soon as i'll have time, i'll add support for patches

[daemon1]

I've posted so many times. I extracted the entire Battlefront 2 Game with UFBE and all of useful files are .Meshset .Texture and .EBX
Could someone show mw how to convert them to .FBX | .DDs or .Png | .Mp3 or .Wav
Please don't redirect to crofty's website, i've tried or either I did something wrong, which I don't think or it doesn't work

Simple tut and tools anyone?

crofty's tutorial is very detailed and correct.
We can't help you if you don't say what exactly is not working, what do you do, and what happens.

[daemon1]

Can I somehow use UFBE to unpack SWBF1 patches? For example, rename folders.
Can you explain its logic in the search the files?

i have no idea what can happen if you try that. At your own risk.

most of the meshes are working fine but I still get crashes or errors when converting some meshes

yes i know that

this is a tool problem, i will fix this later.
as temporary solution, you can delete the ASCII sceleton in the beginning of the file (if you know the file format)

thanks for the fast reply ... I think I'll wait for the update

So I'll convert the characters first

While trying to extract nfs payback files, i hit the dump button and get error message as "399 files failed because of chunk not found"...
Also while scanning cas/cat, it says 0 cas records found. What am i missing ?

wrong game selected

I successfully extracted the payback cas files with your older "swbf2beta" python script !!
But the mesh extractor tools throw file not found exceptions after "frostbite_faceposer" crash...

Screenshot (82).png

Maybe it doesn't identify the chunk file related to the Meshset file.
Is there any way to identify which chunk file is for which meshset file ??
On the other hand, The texture converter tool identifies the related chunks and converts them to dds successfully..

all games are different. swbf2 mesh will not work with NFS

Are you planning to make one for this game too ?

UFBE 0.2.1 release, file moved to the first page. It will be updated there from now on.
Just small fixes:
- case-insensitive search
- cloth and other "special" meshes (which require no chunks) will now have a number in its name, allowing mesh tool to convert it
note: you have to delete "cache.dat" and scan bundles after UFBE update, or make clean run

SWBF2 tool updated (first post in the thread), again a few small changes:
- fixed meshes with lots of faces
- static meshes fixed (need no skeleton anymore, ascii format works)

they've been posted for a very long time now hehe, assuming those are the ones you need to check
