Re: [TUTORIAL] How to "Uncook" assets (with some limitations for the moment)

So I finally got around to trying it and I was able to compile the custom build successfully! Specifically I'm trying to import content from Spellbreak and as far as I've been able to tell it runs on 4.22, which is the version I compiled. However, I ran into some issues when trying to import some assets. I get this error when trying to open most assets or even place them into a level:  And then Unreal crashes. The only thing consistently working is inspecting textures which is not very useful. Does anyone have any ideas on what I could try? I'm a bit lost here. |

You won't be able to load cooked resource if its format has been changed by game's developers. You'll need to reproduce their changes in UE4 source code.

i need to understand something if you dont mind to answer me ok?
normally cooked packaged cannot import to the engine right that mean you wont see any
assets in the editor what i did before what i did by your tutorial give me in empty result
so maybe you get a totall modification ue4 editor i dont know but normally the engine wont accept.
no mattar what you wont be avilable to get assets access. sorry to disappointed you
the only way you can work with ue4 assets is by gildor tool the UModel or the quickbms
that the only way, be welcome back to the reality

Hello mage200, It works for me with old 4.22 BnS and V4 Paks. UModel is still needed to find/save .uassets and export textures/sound. Only works with UE4.22 and UE4.23 though  |

UE4 has built-in possibility to use cooked content in editor. Here's the official documentation: https://docs.unrealengine.com/4.27/en-US/WorkingWithContent/CookedContent/And it really appeared in UE4.22, I've checked the source code history for finding that. |

Hello mage200 what client are you trying this with? I used the 4.22 client from the Blade & Soul Complete thread in Asian games section The Link still works that Kiritomo shared.

You can only uncook Skeletal mesh, animations and physics assets (physics assets duplicates with the uncooker same as duplicating with right click) Anything other than simple material wil crash editor.

Characters are linked to a character blueprint, the materials might be linked to a blueprint the animation bp will be inked to character blueprint, download any paragon character from epic and open in reference viewer in editor to see for yourself. The page you linked to is not intended for modders to open extracted content from shipped games in editor its for developers to use with own ip. short version- you cant do what you want to do.
