But it fail. If you have any suggestion...
Uninstall your Python software and make sure you do a clean install of it using
Python 2.7.3 32-bit
Then check if you have the EXACT location where the game is located, just copy/paste from the window explorer page where the exe is.
double check for the cas.cat location, but from the looks of it you need to do a clean install for Python.
cheers

Effectively with Python 32bit it launch but still doesnt extract... I've got the "Chunk file not found" all the time... I will wait Deamon release a new script cause I'm really not an expert in this

I've just made a ZSTD wrapper for SWBF2 scrtipt to work with full game. As soon as someone who has the game (and not only few files like I do) will test it, it will be published here.
After that, everyone will be able to use my model/texture/facefixing tools as before.
To fix faces which were not in beta, I need their files.

If you don't have someone to test it already, i have the full game and could do it. Either way, can't wait for this!

ok this is the current state of testing
32-bit python 2.7.3 as usual
and you should change directories as usual
probably will dump most, if not all files

maybe its access rights. If not, check folder names.

I get the same error, even with the new version. I turned anti virus and anything else that could prevent the exe from running off, and also set it to be run as admin. Folder names are these:
https://cdn.pbrd.co/images/GU7uYtA.png
Only added one cat directory for now but i doubt that's the problem.

I dont think you can set it to run as admin when its called from python. Anyway i still think its about access rights. Thy putting a few files into your normal drive (not origin folder) and run it there.

also python sometimes messing up folder names with some special characters. Anyway, one user was able to run it already. So it must be just some naming/access problem. Usual for python scripts.

Yeah really seemed to be about being in origin folder. Put it elsewhere and it works now. Thanks a lot!

yeh. a full dump? i'm not interested. frosty editor and mod should be upgraded to allow selective extraction and maybe mod it to make this a good game. you know it's flawed.
and... somebody shoot the moderators or garry himself on facepunch. this numb box is terrible. i don't get why i'm blocked from the modelling forum behind a stupid 'we only do gmail accounts' (which i can't register with a new mobile crap). i'd still like responding to casual support question that i know the answers for, but... i can't.
it all sux. maybe i should just leave.

Tried first version on the updated full game script as you mentioned, for NFS Payback, but I had to delete the
.exe and the
.dll you made for the SWBF2 game (otherwise the .exe you made would crash instantly, since its made for SWBF obviously) and I used the
LZ77.dll and also to enable it in the script, after more than 2h of extraction an error popped out but I could not save it to post it here as python crashed.
There is a newly patched update for the NFSP game and wanted to try the script but no real success any possibility to make a version compatible please?
What files you need so I can upload for testing?
btw the script that extracts but shows error mid way, looks like this with the following modified lines by me:
Code: Select all
bf4Directory =r"R:\Origin\games\Need for Speed Payback"
targetDirectory = r"E:\3D Assets Game Geometry\NFSP_dump"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
tocRoot = r"patch\win32" #patched and xpack files FIRST
tocRoot = r"data\win32" #unpatched vanilla files SECOND
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
catPath = r"Data\Win32\configurations\streaminginstallpackage\cas.cat"
updateCatPath = r"Patch\Win32\configurations\streaminginstallpackage\cas.cat"
catPath2 = r"Data\Win32\configurations\superbundleinstallpackage\cas.cat"
updateCatPath2 = r"Patch\Win32\configurations\superbundleinstallpackage\cas.cat"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
LZ77 = cdll.LoadLibrary("LZ77")
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
try: readCat(cat, catPath2)
except: print "Patched cat not found."
if "tocRoot" in locals(): dumpRoot(tocRoot)
if "tocRoot2" in locals(): dumpRoot(tocRoot2)
If I still try the first script made for SWBF2 beta regardless of modification for NFSP it will not read and extract the patched cas/cat from update folder, keeps saying "Patched cat not found."

Getting the Chunk not found problem. All directories are set to the correct places.

I let it extract until it was done and it resulted in about 15gb extracted files out of ~50 that the game is. Most characters didn't extract (their folders are there but empty). The files that did extract work fine though so i'm not sure what goes wrong.
I get "Chunk not found" on a lot of entries too, while the folders are set properly.
If it helps i could provide more game files.
