X-Packer Beginner Questions - Where are the attire DDS files??

[J N]

Hey - another newb question regarding texture mods in X-Packer:

I'm trying to change the design on an attire. I know that attire files are contained within the 000A.zlib > However when I open in X-Packer, the only *.DDS files that show are

1) all_ao

2) all_n

3) eye

4) eye_ao

The other objects are listed (outfit, elbow pad, knee pad, etc) but when I extract them, they come out as *.pac files, which I cannot edit. What am doing wrong? How can I access the *.dds attire textures so that I can edit them in photoshop? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

 

 

 

Thanks for answering my newb questions

Hey, I thought I'd try my hand at doing a texture mod with Pac tool and immediately hit a wall.

This is probably a ridiculous question but why can't I open standard .pac files with Pac tool? Is there some sort of unlocking step I need to take?

I can open modded pacs just fine, just not the original 2k pac files. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks

Did you get some kind of error?

Ahh yeah I got that whilst opening up a pac the other day, I just used xpacker to extract it, but I assume you don't have that. Whose pac file is it?

Yea, I actually have ordered X-Packer just waiting for my email, so thought I'd give Pac tool a go.

I've tried Bam Bam and Jericho '01 - both same error.

Yeah, mine was with Jericho too. Try this tool in the mean time to open that pac. This one always works.

Tried to open bam bam pac file from game directory in X-Packer - Error notice: Invalid Pac File

Again, I can open up any Modded pac file, but none of the standard pac files will open in either X-Packer or Pac tool! What am I doing wrong??

Did you use ctrl + 4?

Lol, no. I was trying File> Open> PC Pac File > Pac File (ctrl+Q)

I'm a total newb, like I know nothing about nothing. But I'm determined to learn this if it takes me forever. Thank you so much for the help @GameElite™ @AmericanONE

ctrl+q is for WWE 2K15-2K16 pac files.

The format slightly changed this year, to open them now you use ctrl+4 and then crtl+5 for the pach file.
