TitanFall (.vpk) archives

[mono24]

Hm, I'll have to check that file - what command are you running?

Again, that was just an example, every single file has same result on both Titanfall games:

Code: Select all

gssmt.exe englishclient_mp_airbase.bsp.pak000_dir.vpk -x

Sorry, I haven't had a chance to check this yet - been busy.
englishclient_frontend.bsp.pak000_dir.vpk from Titanfall 2 and englishclient_mp_common.bsp.pak000_dir.vpk from Apex Legends are the test files I use - do they work for you? And are you copying across all the other .vpk files too? Extraction won't work unless all the pak00*_00*.vpk files are in the same directory.

[mono24]

...do they work for you? And are you copying across all the other .vpk files too? Extraction won't work unless all the pak00*_00*.vpk files are in the same directory.

Every single file i try has same result on my end as i mentioned, and i used the tool in the VPK directory, there for every file was there nothing has been changed/removed.

Can you try copying the .vpk files to your desktop say and run the extraction from there? It may not have permission to write to the Origin directory.

[mono24]

...It may not have permission to write to the Origin directory.

Your joking, right?
Who keeps their games in C drive yet alone "Program Files"?
And, no its not a permission issue at all, the program simply does no extraction only outputs a log then it crashes, nothing else happens.
Does it need some sort of prerequisites?

[tschumann]

No, that's how Windows has its permissions set by default - Program Files and similar don't seem to be writable by a normal user.

Did you copy gssmt into Program Files?

[mono24]

Hm, thought it was already self explanatory, my games are NOT in Program Files there for has nothing to do with permissions.
Everything resides in a different HDD, i did NOT have to copy it in Program Files as there are no games there to begin with, the tool does not work, or at least not on my end.

[tschumann]

Okay, I understand now.
I'm not sure what the problem is though - I tested on my computer and the files get extracted in the directory where gssmt is located. If it can't extract it segfaults. Do you get a crash dump? I can't remember where exactly they get created but somewhere in C:\Users\you
