Thank you!
Where can I find these files, and in what order should I specify them in console for the face fixer parameters?
If you can, write an example.

The latest dumper script.

There was a problem with some chunks leading to incorrect (broken) textures. Now with this version it must not happen.

If you already dumped whole game, delete only chunks folder, and re-dump. After that, all textures must convert properly.

Amazing work! Has anyone looked at all 32 heads and put blender files of them somewhere?

@daemon

Unfortunatley the audio script you posted doesn't work with nfs payback. haven't tried battlefront 2 but im asuming it uses same ebx format.

It doesn't output anything. just lists the files that its working on in blue, but oither than that, notings being outputted. And i have ealayer3 and xa_decode correctly in the proper directories.

1. Thank you, Daemon, for putting in such hard work on this - it's far more than what most do, but it's SO helpful (and awesome) to have such tools. You deserve lots of credit.

2. BRB (script ran *very* slow first time, but after restart of pc it's faster?)

I seem to not understand how to use swbf2full.py. I installed the Python 2.7.3 x86 version, click open swbf2full.py, a cmd window flashes up, and closes. cms.pyc and noncms.pyc are made in the directory, not finding anything else done. Loading the exe included with the script opens a cmd window that immediately pops up the application has stopped responding dialog. Dragging any of the files onto the python.exe does the same. What am I missing?

Sorry, I can not use your tools.
Let's take the step by step.
step one:
unpack the game files:

Code: Select all

j: \ SWBF2u2 \ bundles \
j: \ SWBF2u2 \ chunks \
step two:
prepare tools, copy skeletons

Code: Select all

j: \ mesh tools \ Fb_BF1_faces.exe
j: \ mesh tools \ Fb_BF1_mesh.exe
j: \ mesh tools \ Fb_SWBF_faces.exe
j: \ mesh tools \ Fb_SWBF_mesh.exe
j: \ mesh tools \ Fb_SWBF2_faces.exe
j: \ mesh tools \ Fb_SWBF2_mesh.exe
j: \ mesh tools \ walrus_humanmale.ebx
j: \ mesh tools \ walrus_humanmale_1p.ebx
j: \ mesh tools \ walrus_humanmale_1p_masterske.ebx
j: \ mesh tools \ walrus_humanmale_masterske.ebx
step three:
copy all * .assetbank of j:\SWBF2u2\bundles\res\animations\antanimations\ to the folder with "vur"

Code: Select all

j:\SWBF2u2\bundles\ebx\characters\hero\hansolo\hansolo_01\cloth\
j:\SWBF2u2\bundles\ebx\characters\hero\hansolo\hansolo_01\texture\
j:\SWBF2u2\bundles\ebx\characters\hero\hansolo\hansolo_01\vur_hansolo_01_bpb\

j:\SWBF2u2\bundles\ebx\characters\hero\hansolo\hansolo_01\hansolo_01_mesh.ebx
Step four:
Drag and drop
j: \ SWBF2u2 \ bundles \ ebx \ characters \ hero \ hansolo \ hansolo_01 \ vur_hansolo_01.ebx
on
j: \ mesh tools \ Fb_SWBF2_faces.exe

getting an error
