UE4 Marketplace Asset Pack - texture Arch_D has no valid mipmaps

« on: September 18, 2016, 23:16 »

To preface this issue, I'd like to note that I am using the latest Windows release of UE Viewer available as of writing this post.

I recently purchased an asset pack from the UE4 Marketplace, and was interested in exporting the assets for use in another 3D program like 3DS Max or Blender.

All of the meshes export from UE Viewer and import into both applications perfectly. However, nearly every texture exports as a small 1KB TGA image that is 1px by 1px in dimension, which is obviously unusable.

For example, when exporting a texture called Arch_D, the command prompt reads the following error:

Code:

Loading package: Textures/Arch/Arch_D.uasset Ver: 482/0 Engine: 0 Names: 27 Expo
rts: 2 Imports: 3 Game: 10000

******** Textures/Arch/Arch_D.uasset ********
*** Unknown texture format: PF_Unknown (0)
WARNING: texture Arch_D has no valid mipmaps
Memory: allocated 403558 bytes in 532 blocks

However, not all textures produce this error. Another texture from the pack called BrickDamage_D exports no problem, with this in the command prompt.

Code:

Loading package: Textures/BrickDamage/BrickDamage_D.uasset Ver: 482/0 Engine: 0

I've uploaded both .uasset packages to Zippyshare below in the event you need to examine them first-hand.

Can anyone help?

This is not a marketplace (and well known) issue. This is an issue with assets which aren't cooked. UModel supports non-cooked meshes, but not textures. Textures are in PNG format there, which is not supported.

Well, is there any way to "cook" these textures then? Or a way to add PNG support for UE assets?

EDIT: I should clarify. I know how to cook a project from the command line using UE4. But I'm curious if there's anyway to cook these assets without having to first place every single model into a scene and then cooking that project.

UModel's source code is available on GitHub, anyone can add PNG support

It is not possible to cook separate package(s), only the whole project.

However, if you have access to editor and assets, you may export data from UnrealEd's UI. Something like Context Menu -> Assets -> Actions -> Export.
