Greeting mates,
As the topic title. Does anyone have some guide/can share the knowledge on how to find and extract costumes/hats from the unpacked .pak files? How to even recognize them as the items I'm looking for. Trying to extract from official US client 8.x version into Aion 3.5.
Thanks in advance
That sounds like a lot of work. I hope anyone with experience can solve your question. (UP)

a lot of work is to find that specific item and extract all info about it . add its not a big deal :D
I´m on the way, but has anyone an idea how to get the mask??? My Skins are working, but the Mask in the Server maybe wrong. Where in the client i define the Mask?

But now i have no ideas XD
i think that the Game has problems with loading the mask of this Item. Or the old 3.5 Client uses other meshes than newer versions. In the Object folder is just an pc folder, in newer versions exist an PC2 folder.
Any ideas? I´m testing the last 2 days, but no complete skin works -.-
2.5, 2.7, 3.5-3.9 have similar meshes, from version 4.0 onwards many changes.
Yeah, but the 4.3 Server with my Aion Infinite Client show the same Issue XD i find no way to make it possible.
This client has an PC2 folder with male and female inside, but my char is in stealth cloth.
Its a frustration work -.-
Show me what files you export from it .Its look like you are missing important files cgf stored in mesh_meshes who keep all textures together :D
I will check in my old files what i try to make before in 4.6
There is not so easy like you think to find all files respond for every item .The easy part its only like i say before copie past from xml file :D
and in xml file there is for you in many situations tips where to look .
4.0
example Cash item Costium
Aion 4.3 NA\Objects\pc\lm <==Light (elyos) male items<id>125060089</id>
<name>cash_head_koreandress13</name>
<desc>STR_CASH_HEAD_KOREANDRESS13</desc>
<icon_name>Icon_cash_head_koreandress13</icon_name><==Usly in same pak file items.pak
<mesh>CL_Cash_KoreanDress13_head</mesh>
Aion 4.3 NA\Objects\pc\lf <== Light (elyos) female
Aion 4.3 NA\Objects\pc\dm <==Light (asmo) male items
Aion 4.3 NA\Objects\pc\df <== Light (asmo) female
There is not always in same number textures and mesh like we want :D
So you need to check every single pak mesh_meshes_x.pak and mesh_textures_x.apk
to find your item with correct files.
hope you understund what i mean
Customisatiom from 8.0 its can be more problematic becouse they change many directorys contain textures or just they are under diffrent names . So this you need to figure it out how to show that path to your new custom items :D im not PRO in this . but i think many Dev here who are study that long time before they know where and how.
Try first with somthing easy then you will make it happend :D
for expmple mounts its not so hard to put from new version to old one .
folder contain them are in object also and its named Ride
Aion 4.3 NA\Objects\npc\Ride
No its ok to pak and put back .If you pack wrong you will not display nothing even not icon . Like i say you missing more files of your item. search all .
This tool for check what pak file contain its AionClientViewer-r2.
was shared here on forum before. @zzsort dev that
https://github.com/zzsort/monono2
@Beckupgaming
more tools
with combination of aionclientViewer +encodec sources can make easy unpacker and packer by only pool to desktop any file (s) what you want to unpack from any part of client and if you want pak it back just move to there back and replace or add . Im not C# or C++ pro but idea its good if someone understund me

This is what i get from 8.0 client. lm and lf has i understood. And ingame showns me the item the icon and the description , thats all good, but the meshes and textures are not good. On 2.7 Client it looks https://imgur.com/a/5gRqwmA so.(Other costume, but same problem) And in 3.5 client only shows a buggy mesh with the red "REPLACE ME" Texture XD

How i get this camera tool to show in the pak files? I depack all in one folder and searching for the names, then put it back to an Mesh_Meshes_999.pak is that wrong?

Thats all in the PC2 folder, and this i paste in lf/lm for test in seperate paks, Mesh_Meshes_999.pak and Mesh_Textures_999.pak, now is my game freezing XD every hour a new reaction from the game client.
Most models from 4.0 onwards are different, even a leap from 4.5 to 4.7.5 was pretty drastic. I'd recommend simply emulating a 3.5 or 8.x server and use skins that way.
The icon and item description is the easy part, trying to mould a piece of gear around a model it wasn't intended for is not a simple task.
