umodel

umodel is a program used to extract assets from Unreal engine packages. Using umodel to export packages is preferred over in-editor export because it allows for greater control and is generally considered to be more stable.

Prerequisites

Make sure you have cloned the repository.

While not technically necessary, it's also recommended to add the umodel path to your system PATH so that you can invoke umodel.exe from any directory:

1. Open System Information by pressing ⌘+Pause.
2. Select Advanced system settings.
3. Select Environment Variables....
4. Under System variables, double click the variable Path.
5. For Variable value, append the path to your umodel directory (eg. ;C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Red Orchestra\tools\umodel)
6. Select OK.

Example

Below is an example of how to use umodel to extract all Tiger Tank assets (meshes, animations, textures etc.).

cd %RODIR%
umodel -export DarkestHourDev/Animations/DH_TigerTank_anm.ukx -out=DH_TigerTank_anm

Always make sure that the current working directory is %RODIR%, otherwise umodel will not be able to export assets referenced by the package being exported.

Use of the -out option is recommended to keep exported assets contained in a common folder. Without it, exported assets will end up scattered in %RODIR%.

    <class>         class of object to load (useful, when trying to load
                    object with ambiguous name)

Commands:
    -view           (default) visualize object; when no <object> specified
                    will load whole package
    -list           list contents of package
    -export         export specified object or whole package

    -dump           dump object information to console
    -pkginfo        load package and display its information
