Hello.
Here are some common notes about Asian games made with Unreal Engine. I'm a bit tired to answer the same questions again and again, so decided to put them into this topic.
- Most games has encrypted executables. I can't do anything with the game without looking at code, but looking at "garbage" (encrypted code) will not help at all. When people provides me decrypted executable (sometimes, "dumped" executable - which will not work, but still could be analyzed) - this may work for me. Don't ask me how to "dump" - I don't know
If some professional would write a tutorial - that would be really good.
- Most online games receives updates frequently. Not just Asian's games, but really all online games. Sometimes updates has newer package version, which breaks compatibility with UModel. In some cases, this is just a version number change, in some cases - engine improvement, in some cases - protection against content extraction/modification.
- For most of supported games, UModel detects game by package version number. But if version changed, UModel will detect it as "Unreal engine N", but not as particular game. You may override this behavior with "-game=xxxx" command line option, or by explicitly selecting the game with startup GUI. Later I'm going to make nicer "Error dialog" window which would suggest user about possible options if UModel would crash, but currently it's still in
my TODO list.
- I'm not working with pre-alpha, pre-beta etc games - those definitely will receive an update breaking compatibility, so I'll need to perform all my work again.
- Most games in this forum section has similar content, so if some game is not supported - please consider looking at other games. It's not worth for me to spend hours of hard work just to allow someone to extract some model or texture.
- I'm not working in game modding area.
- Please don't ask me for download links - I'm never downloading games.
