issue exporting non package raw files

I tried with a ini file from valorant seems to be working fine. Can share the error you are getting and possibly code too? @joric

Managed to get the reader for a package with get_reader, so if the wanted file appears in the self.files, in principle it should be retrievable. So it would be needed the error stack and debugging step by step to know what happened.
The only thing is that it failed for a package name with only one "/", like "Engine/GlobalShaderCache-PCD3D_SM5", as it searches the root based on 2 slash indexes.

@MinshuG It kind of works, but apparently not for 5.1. I am trying to read '/Stalker2/Content/GameLite/GameData/ItemPrototypes/WeaponPrototypes.cfg'

for x in provider.files says (among others)

('Stalker2/Content/GameLite/GameData/ItemPrototypes/WeaponPrototypes', <Name=/Stalker2/Content/GameLite/GameData/ItemPrototypes/WeaponPrototypes.cfg>)

        # package path = 'Stalker2/Content/GameLite/GameData/ItemPrototypes/WeaponPrototypes'
        package = provider.try_load_package(package_path)

        if not package:
            reader = provider.get_reader(package_path)
            if reader:
                filename += '.cfg'
                print('writing "%s" ...' % filename)
                with open(filename, 'wb') as f:
                    f.write(reader.read())
            else:
                print('get_reader failed at', package_path)
            continue

But it doesn't seem consistent. Sometimes data is 0 bytes, sometimes it's larger than needed. Maybe it's because Stalker2 is UE5.1 not 5.0?

E,g, here's `/Stalker2/Content/GameLite/GameData/QuestPrototypes.cfg pulls extra data comparing with FModel

[0] : struct.begin
   SID = empty
   MainQuest = false
   Image =
   Name =
   Description =
   StartQuestNodeSID =
   LocalQuest = false
struct.end
\xef\xbb\xbf[0] : struct <-- this shouldn't be here, extra data, must be the next file in the storage

And for Stalker2/Content/GameLite/GameData/ItemPrototypes/WeaponPrototypes reader.read() returns 0 bytes though it should be 102kb. Alignment perhaps?

[MinshuG]

maybe UE 5.1 containers (.utoc/.pak) aren't supported

[mortalis13]

ok, in theory it would be: Epic Launcher -> Login -> Unreal Engine -> Library -> + -> 5.1.1 -> Install -> find UnrealPak.exe -> check the correct flags and use [not tested]

[MinshuG]

If you’re gonna use UnrealPak, might as well just use FModel since it’s may more user friendly.

[mortalis13]

ok, thanks a lot. Didn't know about that tool...
