Im trying to extract models from lollipop chainsaw and I have all these .xxx files
I have heard about UE Viewer but I dont know how to go about extracting the models with this and I cant find any tutorials either. All the tutorials I have seen are using a different file format.
Can anyone please guide me where to go from here.

Re: Extracting models from UE3
Here is a link to official UE tool FAQ - http://gildor.org/projects/umodel/faq
Also check out English forum section there you can find any help you need. If you still don't understand something, ask here maybe I can help. I have extracted models from that game.

Re: Extracting models from UE3
Ok so I have managed to extract the models with umodelGUI but the textures are low res. I read on Gildors site that the high res textures are stored separate and how you can find them with umodel but I dont know how to use umodel and Im using umodelGUI. Any ideas how and where I can look for the high res textures?

Re: Extracting models from UE3
the textures are stored in the .tfc files, just make sure they are all in the same folder as the model files.farakh wrote:Ok so I have managed to extract the models with umodelGUI but the textures are low res.

Re: Extracting models from UE3
A small advice - extract all files in one folder, put umodel files there and there create .bat file. Then umodel can handle all files automatically.
Example of .bat file is attached.

Re: Extracting models from UE3
That happens because you don't have umodel.exe inside your root game's folder and you're calling that program with a loader from another location, so It's using the small textures that come inside your .xxx files.farakh wrote:Ok so I have managed to extract the models with umodelGUI but the textures are low res.

Open your windows menu, go to run (or search in win 7) and type cmd. After that, copy the folder adess where you extracted your files and type in your cmd window:
Code: Select all
cd "the adress of your folder location" (wihout quotations)
Code: Select all
umodel -export -all -dds "the name of the file you want"
Tips: you must have umodel.exe inside the folder where you unpacked all your game data. The textures are inside of .tfc files that umodel can't extract by itself but I can by emulating the unreal engine.
See ya.

Thanks for your help guys. I extracted everything from the disc and umodel extracted everything, low res, high res textures, animations, static meshes, all the characters etc.
