MODkit 1.1 uncook fail on same file every time

MODkit version: 1.1
Game version: 1.31 GOTY, Steam, installed on dedicated SSD containing only games
Notes: running in elevated CMD, have tried setting the exe to run as admin, also tried compatibility mode


Every time I attempt to uncook the game files, the process will prematurely terminate upon reaching a certain file. As soon as this file begins being processed, the uncook will stop. For example, one of the errors says that "the file version is invalid (163 > 162), file is from newer version of the engine"

- I have tried many different options/switches in the command line to try to get a different result, but it appears I am unable to circumvent the issue. I have tried unbundle first, then uncook, but this results in error saying the files in the unbundled for are not unbundled.
- I have tried using the -uncookext= switch to limit the file types it processes, but both xbm and w2mesh will cause an error.

I have listed below very short snippets of the CMD output at the point where the error occurs and terminated the uncook. When I try to process the entire content folder, the process will stop at the same file every single time. I then tried tobreak the uncook into several pieces and/or use the -uncookext option to see if I would have more success. As you can see, pretty much every attempt to uncook was met with an error




normal command (wcc_lite uncook -indir="C:\The Witcher 3\content" -outdir="C:\Games\The Witcher 3\Uncooked" -skiperrors -imgfmt=tga)
(the total combined size of the uncooked files from this command is about 8.2GB by the time the error occurs)

I also decided to try to uncook each individual 'content_x' folder at a time (i.e. content\content0\, content\content8\), rather than trying to uncook the entire content\ folder and all the content folders contained within it. Doing them one-by one did allow me to uncook more of the game, but there is still A LOT of the game files I am missing. When combining all of the uncook files from each separate content_x folder, the total combined size was approx. 18GB.

We should have that thread pinned I guess :)
You still can do some modding stuff but you can't uncook the game if you update it to 1.30+
Click to expand...

sigh...
all that effort compiling my error messages OCD style.. lol

ok so.. is there any outlook on it being 'fixed'? also which thread are you referring to?

(also, i didnt update.. i just bought the game for the first time.. guess i waited too long.. its the first non-bethesda open world action rpg ive ventured to play and make mods for .. not off to a good start; oh well)

It's being "worked on", but imo, they just dont really care anymore. Mod support never was their strongest territory. They're too busy with that gwent game.... :|

Thank you for posting this -- it's the exact same issue I've been having.

I've had the game for a while, but on my second replay I started to get ideas for mods, only to start learning how to do it to end up frustrated. At least I now know for sure it is NOT on my end -- small comfort, but it is a bit of knowledge.

It is a shame that the folks of CDPR really don't care about this enough. I think they are great company, but I cannot avoid but feel a little disappointed...

the sad thing is that it most likely would take like 1 day to do it, had they cared.
But w/e, if you roll back, to like 1.22, stuff should work fine

You are probably right. Unfortunately, I don't think I have a choice with the Steam copy of the game (which is what I have). And besides, otherwise I am liking version 1.31. :/

Heck, if I had the game engine and/or the code (or at least a part of it) for the Mod Kit I could patch it with a HEX editor on my own. But without it, I may still be able to do it, but I DO have a job, and not enough time
