How To Extract Models (CMESH, G_CMESH) - A Tutorial for Saints Row 2.

Hi Everyone!

Sadly it is NOT possible to re-import models back into the game. This is just for extraction.

Before we begin please follow this tutorial for info on extracting .vpp_pc files.

First download this tool:



Extract the contents to your preferred location.

Use Minimauls tools to extract the "meshes.vpp_pc" file. Once extracted you should find all the game's 3D models (except the map).

Just like the texture modding tutorial you'll need 2 versions of the mesh file, that being the "CMESH" and the corresponding "G_CMESH".

Copy-paste the files to the were you put the model tools. Drag and drop the CMESH and G_CMESH into the "CMESH2obj.exe", after about 3 seconds you should have your model's obj file. Now you can import it to your 3D modeling program of your choice.

For textures follow this tutorial. Sadly most clothing textures will not have color, this is because the game applies color to the textures through configs, and is customizable in the game.

Happy extracting! :D
