Shenmue 3

AES key is the same as for the demo. It can be found on rin forums or zenhax in the corresponding topic.

Hello and good evening everyone, I was able to open Shenmue III with the provided AES key. However, when I try and extract the assets (such as props) ( after selecting Engine version 4.20) I get this error:


SerializeBulkArray <- SerializeOccluderData <- UStaticMesh4::Serialize <- LoadObject:StaticMesh4'AsianSpoon.AsianSpoon', pos=18A4A, ver=517/0 (unversioned), game=ue4.20 <- UObject::EndLoad <- LoadWholePackage:AsianSpoon <- ExportPackages <- CUmodelApp::ShowPackageUI <- Main:umodel_build=1145

This is an error I received after trying to extract a spoon, for example.

I tried selecting previous Engine versions up to 4.16 and newer versions too.

can anyone assist in identifying what I might be doing wrong? Thank you very much.

I've noticed that the game is not in compatibility table yet, so here is some summary:

Game: Shenmue III (steam page)
UE4 version: 4.20
AES key: in the same place as usual (link)

Skeletal meshes, animations and textures works fine with the latest umodel build (1440 at the moment). Some materials are custom. Static meshes works fine with specific umodel build (link, updated) - no special override is required, simply choose proper engine version. Also, don't try to load all possible animations for a model with Ctrl+A - the game has more than 4GB of animations, compatible with most characters models, and umodel can't load them at once - so you should use append option and add them manually. Tested on the latest game version at the moment.

Some samples of static meshes: link

P.S. Umodel doesn't support audio format used in the game. If you want to extract audio from it, first extract audio assets from paks via "save packages" option, then use vgmtoolbox (misc. tools -> extraction tools -> streams -> CRI HCA extractor) to extract hca audio from corresponding uexp files. Resulted hca can be played or converted with vgmstream.

Update: Post edited, since specific umodel build for static meshes is now available for the game.

Specific umodel build for static meshes added to my previous post. Actually, it was the same issue as in this topic, but I failed to understand the real reason behind that behavior.

Update: Applied quick fix for the specific build, updated version can now properly read materials for static meshes. Please check if you're using the updated build before submitting possible issues.
