 Fmodel is quite amazing - for beginners, It does the job of dealing with ''.pak'' and ''.utoc'' archives. Back in the days, you had to do this with a funny script that you downloaded from a funny website, which then revealed .uasset files which you had to load into a different program that then let you extract files from there. Back then you needed QuickBMS, and then you needed UModel, and then you needed a way to figure out WWise. Fmodel does all of this for you! Fmodel is quite amazing - for beginners, It does the job of dealing with ''.pak'' and ''.utoc'' archives.

-That is all. With this knowledge you should now be able to work with Unreal Engine games and extract assets from them. Note that you will need additional software to work with more involved file types, like those used for 3D assets/meshes and others. I am not touching on them, though, as there are standardized pieces of software like [[Blender]] that, if your goal is to work with 3D assets, you probably already know how to work with.+That is all.

 <wrap hi>To use FModel, you will now be primarily interested on the right side of your screen that acts as an explorer for the game's files. Use it to navigate through the folder structure, double click to open files and right click to see options for extracting the selected files. After opening a file it will often show a preview - use the left button on the bottom right to get back to the file/folder view.</wrap> <wrap hi>To use FModel, you will now be primarily interested on the right side of your screen that acts as an explorer for the game's files.
