The U4Pak unpacker isn't working for me, as my security keeps deleting it as a Trojan and when I turn it off and try to run it it doesn't run anything (when I run it with my security on again it deletes it saying it's malware.)
Is there another recommended unpacker for Unreal4 or is there a potential for someone to just post all the textures for the current characters in the resource section.
I should be able to get them out myself as instructed but just seems like a good resource to have out there for people jus trying to make colors or whatever.
EDIT: Yea it doesn't seem like any of the unpackers are working for me. Even when they don't get tagged as malware they open for 2 seconds on my taskbar and then close. Anyone ever had this problem before?
Also, if all the textures are too much too ask (because there is obviously a ton of them), is it possible that someone could just send me the textures for default Ryu and Zangief? That's really all I need.

Antivirus catching U4PAK is a false positive, you need to add it to exceptions but U4PAK won't work on official PAK files because they are encrypted, you need another tool to extract them, I'll send you that once I'll get back to my computer, answering from mobile right now. If you will still face issues then I'll send you textures but it's always good to learn first

Thanks guys. Any ETA on textures or sending me a link to an unpacker that will work? I know yall are busy with approximately 1 million mods and getting this forum up but if I get either of those promptly I should be able to figure everything else I need out on my own

thettimelivesSorry man, you're right the forum is keeping us occupied but here you go extract the files in the PAK folder of game (where all official pak files are located) and then click on Extract-All.bat to start extracting, it will make an "Out" named folder which will have all the content, make sure you have sufficient space on your HD around 35 GB or more to accommodate everything, also it takes a while to complete so give it some time.

I'll kick things off, here's a question: So I have an early prototype for Abigail: Issue is Abigail bobs his head constantly. If you transfer weights from his head to the helmet, it makes the helmet super stretchy and kinda bad looking. But if you lock his helmet to the body he bobs his head out of the helmet/eyeholes. So I'm guessing what I'm looking for is.... a way to lock his head/neck in one place so it stays in sync with the helmet (without messing up his facial animations). Any ideas? I try to make a mod of juggernaut the first day available but I have the same issue, I dont know if linking bones of the head to another bone like the chest. But maybe this cause errors in the animation and crash . Another solution can be lose all the facial animation changing all weight of head and neck vertex to the chest, lossing the facial animations but the head stay in his site

THEJAMK We think along similar lines. There's a way to cheat it by parenting bones differently I think. I almost have it cracked.... @brutalace : Do we know for sure about u4pak.exe being a false positive? Some dude on Zetaboards swore up and down it was an actual virus and not a false positive after you left. I haven't read anyone else saying the same thing, but Antivirus programs don't seem to like it. I've switched to just using the python script for safety, but it's more of a pain than u4pak. thettimelives : Well u4pak.exe has to run off a command line prompt. Instructions here. Double clicking it doesn't do anything lol. So that's normal. Are you trying to extract the game itself or a mod? To physically extract the game you need guickbms.exe and the proper script, not u4pak (Tutorial here.) I really should get on with a beginner tutorial/compilation of information. Plan to if I can ever get Juggernaut Abigail up and running. I need to compile info before Sakura Whathisface snaps and just deletes the zetaboards out of spite.

sleepyscrubMost of these small modding tools don't have much history online including usage statistics, owner history and digital signatures so the antivirus programs that are supposed to be called intelligent use heuristic analysis by looking at those statistics to see if it's some malicious program and as such often end up predicting wrong. Also most of these modding tools perform operations that are considered unsafe such us file injection and so on, that also lead antivirus programs to consider them malicious. We used to face these problems during USF4 modding too, there was a tool that used to inject textures and it always caused this issue. As for U4PAK, I am using it from good bit of time haven't faced any issue that infected my system but yes I always have to add it to exception list so it won't be deleted by AV program.

Do any of you guys ever have issues with loading those uassets? I dropped them into a content folder to try and load them and they keep freezing up my system (whether I dropped Gief or Ryu's texture folder all together, just pasting the files loose or one at a time and/or pasting them with Unreal open and closed.)
Unreal doesn't actually "freeze" per say, but it says "Loading (huge number) asset" and never ends up loading them. I don't ever use Unreal or any game engine for anything (I am familiar with several 3D applications however) and had a friend to upload these uasset files similarly, and he ran into the same issue,
Is there some easy fix for this or can someone just send me the eported image files (Trg,jpg, png whatever) for these textures (just Gief and Ryu default)? I hate asking for this stuff but I'm a scrub in these fields and it's just so frustrating trying to get these textures finally.
EDIT:
That was all attempted in 4.15.0 and when I downloaded and tried to get it up in 4.17.1 it straight up told me it crashed when I pasted it in and now wont allow me to open the otherwise empty project. So ... irritating.

thettimelivesYou can't load them in UE4 because they are cooked assets which means they are compiled into a format where all editor information is stripped away thus UE4 can't recognize them, just use UModel and it will load the files for you (make sure you select UE version 4.7 in UModel). I will upload the textures for you tonight but it's better that you learn about it as texture extraction is a required step with every mod. EDIT: For the main engine only use UE version 4.7.6. Any other version like 4.15 or 4.17 won't work because the game itself is made using 4.7.6.
