Extracting game files - Wuchang-Fallen-Feathers-Modding-Team/Wuchang-Fallen-Feathers-Modding-Guide GitHub Wiki
Important
We will mainly use Fmodel for model extraction with it's .uemodel
format, since the extracted models from it supports fixes for serval known bugs during import while Umodel extraction gives neck seams by incorrect bone positions. We also use Fmodel for inpsecting asset details later on so definitely have it installed.

Warning
If you select .psk
for Mesh Format, you need to select Don't Export Bone Sockets
for Socket Format.
Note
If this is your first time launching the app then click ok on the setting menu. Your app should require a restart. If nothing happens it means your fmodel is updated and new setting is applied.
Once app is restarted after setting changes or a new launch:
Click Archive

You should be able to see name.pak
Click the name.pak folder section
There, you can finally browse uassets from the game.
You can preview most meshes and textures by double-clicking on the UAsset. A new window will appear and contain the output of the selected model.
If you want to extract any contents you are looking for:
Right-click on the subfolder that includes the model/texture.uasset>

Click Save folder's packages Textures / Save folder's packages Models
Click Save folder's packages properties (.json) for materials
Go back to step 3 and find where your extracted files are located.
Warning
Make sure your Fmodel is always updated to the latest version to avoid unknown errors.
Important
You can still use Umodel for extraction. Although it was not recommended for model extraction for modding Wuchang: Fallen Feathers, if you are using PSK, this app is still available.
