Umodel command line to export all icons from Fortnite
« on: May 27, 2018, 20:18 »

I'm trying to export all Icons from the Fortnite game, using UModel. I've managed to get it all working with an AES key, but saving all Icons one-by-one takes a long time, could this be done using a command line?

Example:
umodel -export -path=c:/program files/epic games/fortnite -all UI/Foundation/Textures/Icons

This way it will load umodel, then export all files in the UI/Foundation/Textures/Icons folder.

Any ideas? <3

Re: Umodel bash script to export all icons from Fortnite

Code:
umodel.exe -path=... -export */UI/Foundation/Textures/Icons/*
Compare with your command to understand the difference. If this won't work - you're using too old umodel (I've changed something for batch processing recently). You're definitely using something old, because "-all" option has been removed.

When using umodel.exe UI the icon portraits background look weird... do you know why? Any setting I must change?

It's just the way it shows it, since there is a alpha mask behind the character, once you export it to tga you will see this,


Alpha On



Alpha off...

I've changed thread's name - replaced "bash script" to "command line", because there's nothing bash-specific here. Also I've updated command line help a little bit, removed "-all" option reference.

For future people interested in how this works, I'll write how I got it working...

  • 1. Download and extract the Umodel into a folder on your desktop
  • 2. Create a file called fortnite.bat
  • 3. Edit fortnite.bat with a text editor
Code:
umodel.exe -path="C:/Program Files/Epic Games/Fortnite" -out=\ExportOutput -export */UI/Foundation/Textures/Icons/*
  • 4. Now open the Command Prompt (CMD on Windows), and navigate to the fortnite.bat (using "cd C:/path/to/fortnite.bat")
  • 5. In the Command Prompt, now run "fortnite.bat"

You will be prompted for an AES key:
0x9D8C9A4A4FA082F213EED604B6E756237181685EEDA82216437617D7AA5231AF
This key is changed every new update. How to find the new one? Google Smiley

Game Version as of date:
Unreal Engine 4.19


This will save all the Images from the Fortnite game into the ExportOutput folder in the UModel folder on your desktop.

These files are now in a .TGA format, and they include an alpha channel. To convert these TGA files into transparent PNG files I used ImageMagick with PHP.

If you're using a linux DEB server with PHP7, you may install ImageMagick easily by running this command on your server:
Code:
sudo apt-get install php-imagick

Code:
<?php
// create new imagick object from image.jpg
$im = new Imagick"T-Constructor-HID-Constructor-009-SR-T01-L.tga" );

// change format to png
$im->setImageFormat"png" );

// output the image to the browser as a png
header"Content-Type: image/png" );
echo 
$im;


Voila~ Now you got a transparent background PNG image from the TGA files exported from the Fortnite Game engine!

The way I batch convert them is by using Sagethumbs extension for Windows,

I'm using FastStone Image Browser for image conversion - when I need to upload tga to web (tga doesn't work in browsers). There's no needs to use any command line, external tools, and php scripting.

What is the command if I want to save all the contents of the pak? And it is possible to get a list of files in a text file?

Code:
umodel -path=... -game=... -export *.uasset
This will export content from ALL pak files. If you want a particular pak file, you should isolate it in some directory, i.e. copy it somewhere without having other paks in the same directory.

If I use umodel.exe how can I use command line?
I created .bat file but I couldn't export all files in Pak...
(Maybe my English is too bad, so I couldn't understand example?)
