Can you provide your script after you've set your folders?

Sure, here: https://cdn.pbrd.co/images/GUddmZD.bmp

without files i can't say what's wrong

Can you give me example of character (its filename) which didnt dump?

p.s. also good if you can tell me which SB file its in

Examples for character parts would be
bundles\res\characters\heads\heads_kylo (only one texture extracts 't_hair_kylo_02_ns 15c2bb9415242877 0d000000010000000000000000000000.Texture')
bundles\res\characters\hero\rey\rey_01\
bundles\res\characters\hero\rey\rey_02\ (these are all entirely empty)
bundles\res\characters\hero\rey\rey_03\

I'm not sure how to tell which .sb files they are in, but almost all .toc files display thousands of 'Chunk not found.' errors in the python log.
This is the full list of .toc files: https://jpst.it/17E95
They are also here if you need them or don't have all of them.
Only chunks0.toc, frontend.toc and the localisation ones extract without any error. I suppose the missing character things are in characters.toc.

weird. Other people were able to export Rey file with all her files.

can you send your whole script on pastebin?

Hmm i don't know what's going wrong then...
Here's the script https://pastebin.com/E7FQMZ5B

Now its all clear. you dont have to just list CAT names, you need to read them all too.
Here, near the end of a script:

Oh my sorry for the trouble, that fixed it. Thanks so much!

Tried the new version of the dumper, now it's saying:

Unpatched cat3 not found.
Unpatched cat4 not found.
Unpatched cat5 not found.
Unpatched cat6 not found.
Unpatched cat7 not found.
Unpatched cat8 not found.
abilities.toc

Despite, all the paths for the cat files are correct.

Currently reading thread now, maybe my stuff got answered.

#catPath = r"Data\Win32\installation\space"
#catPath2 = r"Data\Win32\installation\initialexperience"

catPath = r"Data\Win32\installation\initialexperience\cas.cat"
updateCatPath = r"Patch\Win32\installation\initialexperience\cas.cat"

---those are the modified lines I used, which extracted all 59GB of files. "catPath" and "updateCatPath" need to be changed for every single cat path; for instance, if you wanted to extract the cat files for the "space" folder, you would change it to:

catPath = r"Data\Win32\installation\space\cas.cat"
updateCatPath = r"Patch\Win32\installation\space\cas.cat"

---delete the "catPath / catPath2" lines, or add a # in front of them as they appear to be useless, and only caused "no chunk found" errors for me.

Additionally to what you already did, search for and replace it with

Code: Select all

#make the paths absolute and normalize the slashes
for path in "catPath", "catPath2", "tocRoot", "tocRoot2":

Sorry if it's a dumb question, but how do I use swbf2full? Do I just drop the bf2 exe to fb_zstd.exe?

no you need python to run the script. I'm not saying this is easy, but its a temporary solution

have you looked into how to decode the new version of ebx for audio/music? i can send samples from both battlefront 2 and nfs payback if needed.
