Unity-game-hacking VS AssetStudio

The game is made with Unity so it uses C# for its code. I like to mod the game using something like BepInEx, so that the actual assets and code of the game remain untouched. This resource, was also helpful for me when I was first learning how to mod the game.

AssetStudio - let's you extract models, textures, sounds, etc. from the game's assetbundles (aka: the game's compressed / packed data). There's also this guide on other programs for Unity modding - less of a guide really, more for finding out what other tools there are.

HK is a unity project that they decompiled the source with tools like these and made changes to build for Android. Halo was on a proprietary engine made specifically for non mobile architecture.

Yea, Unity being so popular means it has a whole ecosystem of decompiler and asset extractor tools: https://github.com/imadr/Unity-game-hacking

Here's a guide regardless. Assumes previous programming knowledge.

I have done some very limited modding of the .dll with Ilspy/Reflexil, but most variable modification does nothing at all. Not exactly sure why that is as, most games that I mod in this manner, if I change a 1 to a 4, then it correctly is applied ingame. In theory I could do further modification with the Unity Assets Bundle Extractor (or UABE for short), but that requires knowing the precise name of specific entities, items, and traits, to do so (the search function is fairly barebones, so unless you know precisely what something is called, you have to manually search through thousands of entries). I have also looked into other tools that might do the job (here is a link to the various tools and suggestions on how to "mod" unity titles) = https://github.com/imadr/Unity-game-hacking), but again, still require the precise name of things to modify them, and for reasons unknown, the QuickBMS script doesn't work on any of the Void Bastard files (but does work on other Unity titles).

Haha well, let me give the short version then: Dialog is represented as UUIDs (a long string of digits and letters essentially) in the game's level files. Each UUID is then mapped to different translations under the localization folder. These are in clear text, so you can immediately find (almost) all dialog in the game very easily by going to the Kingmaker_Data/StreamingAssets/Localization folder in your game files and looking at the files there that start with enGB. The harder part is figuring out who is saying what line. To do that, you have to look at the binary asset files. I have seen a few tools online that let you extract them (there's a list of them here), but it's sure to be a long and painful process.

Asset Studio for browsing and previewing files, Avalonia for replacing/editing bundles. Of course, I've never actually modded RF5; all I've managed to get working so far for RF3s is portrait and model texture editing, and face textures are so tightly cropped that replacing them might be a pain. As for dialogue, the extracted .txt comes out garbled, and I tried it with Grimoire just for fun but that doesn't seem to do anything.

the sprites won't appear as actual images unless you are using something to load the sprites like AssetStudio or a similar program. unfortunately i can't remember the name of the program that allows you to take a screenshot and rip assets from there, or something similar. but AssetStudio will do the trick and you have to load the folder called "hollow_knight_Data" from - C:\(yournamehere)\steamapps\common\Hollow Knight\hollow_knight_Data - some of the information here will vary based on what you've named your drives but the main folder is in steamapps\common\HollowKnight\hollow_knight_Data

I've tried exploring a few things with this but the only sound file I was able to find was the one that plays on the startup screen. I think I might have another lead with the files that steam displays but I'm doing my best and if worse comes to worst I will just try to get recordings of everything :]

Yes, you can use a tool like asset studio to find and extract the wrap textures

Hi, I'm the person who made priconne-image-extractor. If you're looking to decrypt .unity3d files from the EN server, you can use that to get all the .unity3d files from EN's CDN, and then use AssetStudio (https://github.com/Perfare/AssetStudio) to load the folder with all the .unity3d files. This won't work anymore for JP's server since they updated Unity a while ago, but in theory this should work for EN still.

You can dig the audio files yourself from the game data with Asset Studio. I can get it for you, but it'll have to wait until I get home. I advice you try to dig yourself. Might find many cool things in there.
