Fortnite 35.00 Update (Umodel Crash)
« on: May 07, 2025, 18:34 »

Hello, usually I've been using the latest builds of Umodel to export stuff from Fortnite up until the new Star Wars battle pass. Once the 35.00 Update came in, I couldn't extract more stuff anymore because this error keeps showing up:



That error pops up with the latest May 5 Build too btw. I'm using Unreal Engine 5/5.5 options to open the .pak file, but like I said, extracting or opening the files causes said error to happen. Can someone help me with this?

PS: I know FortnitePorting is the usual tool to extract models, but my PC can't run the latest updates of that program since 2.0, and FModel crashes too, so Umodel is my only option, that's why I'm opening this thread asking for help.

Update (16/06/2024)

-Animations have been placed in their respective folders instead of being all over the place.

@MrUncleBingo: I'm not considering supporting Fortnite specifically. It's always using bleeding edge versions of the engine and it's not guaranteed that it will be using current stock engine (provided to developers) at any given moment. Currently the game is using 5.6, but there are no reports about other games using it, probably because it's just came out. It's good if the game will be supported with generic engine override (which doesn't exist yet in umodel) based on others games using stock engine, otherwise I can't help.

@spiritovod Oh so that's why the new update crashes out, it's using 5.6 and Umodel doesn't support that yet.

Probably once the program makes the jump there it will work, since the latest builds worked just fine with Fortnite this past months (since February or so, to give you an idea, I don't know if this helps).

I'm gonna wait until Umodel jumps to 5.6 then, i'm in no hurry since shortly before updating the Game, I managed to extract stuff from it to work with for a while, so I can focus on that for now. Thanks for answering!
