Metro: Exodus vfx unpacker

[rengareng]

Hi,

I'm sharing the vfx unpacker tool for the new Metro game.
Please let me know if you encounter any issue while unpacking.
You can selectively unpack files only you need using filter.

Code: Select all

----- Metro: Exodus - vfx unpacker ----
------- celikeins - 2019.02.16 --------
Usage: metro-vfx-unpacker.exe <command> <vfx file> [<filter>]
<command> is x or l: x to extract files, l to only list names without extracting
<vfx file>: vfx file
Optional <filter>: Filter to filter files by name
Examples:
The following command line will extract all files:
 metro-vfx-unpacker.exe x content.vfx
The following command line will extract only files with 'localization' in their path:
 metro-vfx-unpacker.exe x content.vfx localization
The following command line will list all files in the archive:
 metro-vfx-unpacker.exe l content.vfx

[Jacob Darka]

thank you rengareng! but after unpacking it, how to make the game read the modified files?

[FleSS]

Thank you! But how to open these models in 3DS Max 2012 or >2012? I tried to use plugin LL/2033 model import, but the models looks like.. so weird.

Textures might be compressed again, and models too.

[FleSS]

models too.

What do you mean? Can you give link to the tutorial or.. something?

I wonder how to use the program. Nothing happens when I dragged the VFX file to exe.

Create a shortcut. In the "properties" find "Target:" and write there "x content.vfx"

but it works, I'm sorry, but you don’t know what to do with textures? driving them to dds format they break

[FleSS]

So... Can somebody help me with weird models?

Here is tool, but so far only static meshes are convertable. I figure out dynamic meshes but just for my needs.

Code: Select all

Don't think anyone has made a working extraction script for it yet.
So you could start by uploading a sample of the package files you want to unpack to a filehost and link that here so people can take a look at it.

OK, thanks

Tried creating a shortcut. Nothing. Tried to make a run.bat file with command. Nothing. Tried running from CMD window. Nothing. Tried to drop and drag. Nothing. Could someone please explain in a little better detail how to use this extractor ?
