How to edit Svr 2010 and import Older Models into the game using Xpacker

Some older models have files in the pac archive which cause the model not to load. With svr 2010 models, there is a file called 64.bpe which contains the padding at the end of the file compressed into a bpe archive. Sym, hctp and svr05 contain some graphic files which the game cannot read.

In order to get these files to load do the following:

1. Open up the pac file which contains the model and textures you want in X-PacKer.
2. Extract the 02 (texture file) and the 09 (model file).
3. Open a pac file which works with editing i.e. a Pac file from svr06/07/08.
4. Inject the 02 and 09 files into the new pac file you have opened.
5. Import the model into the game.

Things to note about older model files:
- HCTP models don’t display correctly due to issues with the models
- SYM models don’t display correctly due to issues with the models and different alpha values on the textures
- Svr 05 models don’t load in ring but load on entrances due to the large filesize of the textures.


How to add entrance gear to a model using Xpacker

I am going to use an example to illustrate this. Say you want to add Stone Cold's entrance jacket to the Rock.

1. Open the Rock’s pac file.
2. Extract the 02 and 09 files from the archive.
3. Open Stone Cold’s entrance model. If you have opened up the correct model, you should find that there are more than four files. The fifth and sixth files are usually called 20 and 27.
4. Inject the Rocks 02 and 09 files into the Stone cold entrance model you have opened, replacing the 02 and 09 files in the Stone Cold Pac archive.
5. Import the modified Stone Cold entrance model into the game.

You can also extract the 20 and 27 files if you want to make texture edits the entrance gear. 20 is the model file for the entrance gear and 27 is texture for the model.
