Hi,
I’ve created a file extractor for Killer Instinct (PC Version). You simply place this tool anywhere along with the .pak file to extract. Then you open the tool and type in the file name (with .pak), and it will extract it and generate a list of all files into a .txt.
That sounds pretty awesome, though I’m not sure this is the right place to be sharing it. Modding the game is not officially supported so any discussion about how to modify game files is kind of off limits here, so I’d assume that distributing tools to extract the files would be too. Just a heads up, I’m not entirely clear on the protocols.
Well to be fair, All I’m doing is simply copying the game’s files. I’m not tampering with them at all, and I didn’t modify nor mod anything, I only took the data from one file, and organized it into multiple files and folders.
Like I said, I don’t really know the rules since its a fairly new topic. Just letting you know it might not be something that they want discussed here.
To be fair, most gaming communities usually comment on such actions, and modders halt their processes to respect their requests. So I’ll probably end this if IG or MS ask me to.
I’m moving this to the artwork & videos section, as we don’t have a good place for modding topics right now.
If you’re simply extracting files to peruse or try to mod yourself, that’s not breaking anything. As I said before, it’s when you start offering links to files directly for non-owners that we get into strange waters.
Still amused how conspiratorial-minded some people are. Dude lost interest or hit a wall (though I’d assume the former). It happens, particularly among the artistically inclined. Adam has been very hands-off and at least modestly supportive of KI modding topics.
No one is disappearing anyone or threatening lawsuits…
