Skylanders: Swap Force/Superchargers (.pak)

Post by rottiebones »

So I've been trying for about a week now to rip a model from either Swap Force or Superchargers- I'm interested in both animating and 3D printing a character that they don't make figures of in stores.

I've been trying to get into the .pak files for a while now but unfortunately I don't really have a frame of reference or idea of how to go about it, what attempts I have tried have remained fruitless as every effort I've made has ended in error. I've been using the Wii version, which I'm realizing now is probably my first mistake.

I'd really just like to get ahold of Flynn's model and textures, if anyone could help me with that or give me some guidance I'd be extremely grateful. I only need his model from one of the two games, I have no real preference of which it's from.

Thank you so much in advance!

These are the ones I'm suspecting to have his model in them! Thank you

Script updated since this game has 3 fields swapped for no apparent reason:

Thank you so much for the script, I was able to extract the .pak files but now i've hit another stump. All of the files are .igz format, what can I do about that to progress further?

Thanks for the help so far

I guess that it's better if you search the following on google:
"igz" site:zenhax.com

This format has been used in many other games that have been successfully modded.

I've attempted using the marvel script on this file, and a few others from Swap Force, they seem to fail. https://www.dropbox.com/s/42xg3rz2v3bp5 ... m.igz?dl=0
