In Jedipedia.net you can find the following tools and information:
-
The SWTOR Database: it lets us search for any in-game term (characters' names, armor gear, locations, etc.), returning a list of entries covering all the ways the item is mentioned in the database: 3D object references, codex entries, abilities, etc. Delving in them, we can get identifiers and paths for finding those in SWTOR's internal data structure and in our game asset extraction files, helping us automate processes to some extent such as autotexturing objects in Blender.
-
File Reader: it replaces the functionality on many really old apps such as EasyMYP (to inspect the contents of SWTOR's .tor files), NodeViewer (to explore the data in SWTOR's node tree) or PugTools (to view and export game assets). By feeding it the .tor files (all of them at once, typically), it lets us explore just everything and how it is interconnected. What's more, it lets us visualize and export objects, textures, music, area data, etc.).
-
World Viewer: it lists all the game areas in the data base and, by feeding it the .tor files, reconstructs them in 3D and lets us flyby them!
-
File Names: This page keeps track of the latest additions to the list of known game assets and their internal identifiers, which our ExtracTOR tool uses to extract and name them in an usable manner. There are links to download the list (a simple text file:
hash_file.txt) combining the most recently released Game Update of SWTOR with those of the Public Test Servers ("Live"). There's also the one from the game's betas before its original release ("Beta"), and both combined ("All").
We do not condone the usage of our tools for malicious intent, including: exploits, harassment of others, or anything else that may violate EA/Bioware's EULA, TOS, DSA, Privacy Policy Copyrights, Trademarks, or anything else illegal. We will not be held accountable for your actions, and will act against you if nessesary.

IMPORTING SWTOR MODELS INTO BLENDER: A BRIEF OVERVIEW.
Check this intro first. Afterwards, you can jump directly to the guides on extracting PCs, NPCs and others.
Downloadable Tools (All Links Page):
-
(NEW) ExtracTOR Windows app.
(Replaces the old Slicers GUI app) -
Blender 3D Windows/Mac/Linux app.
-
SWTOR .gr2 Objects Importer Blender Add-on.
Required by other add-ons. -
ZG SWTOR Tools Blender Add-on:
-
SWTOR Terrain Extractor Windows Command Line Tool.
-
TORCommunity.com:
(runs VERY slowly)- SWTOR Database (with NPC Exporters).
- Character Designer.
- EasyMYP Windows app.
- Noesis Windows app.
READ THE BROAD STROKES FIRST: YOU'LL SEE IT'S EASIER THAN YOU THINK!
-
The steps:
- Extracting SWTOR's game assets with ExtracTOR (WIP).
-
Using TORCommunity's Character Designer to export Player Characters.
- IF ARMOR SELECTION SEARCH IS DOWN: workaround to manually specify Armor Sets.
- Using TORCommunity's NPCs Database to export Non Playable Characters.
- Using our Blender add-ons to auto-assemble the model.
- Rigging the character for posing and animation
- Applying SWTOR animations to the character.
-
Extra steps that require manual work and some knowledge of SWTOR's assets:
-
Making capes and hair work, manually and through Cloth Simulation.
-
Attaching weapons and other objects to a character with a SWTOR rig.
-
Attaching weapons and other objects to a character with a custom rig.
-
Baking the models' textures and exporting to other apps:
- Baking with Legacy SWTOR materials and modern ones.
- Baking the multiple materials of an object into a single one.
- Exporting to VRChat.
- Exporting to Star Wars Battlefront II.
- Exporting to Unreal Engine.
- Exporting to Garry's Mod.
- Exporting to Tabletop Simulator.
-
3D Printing:
-
- Locating armor parts' assets
- Locating weapons' assets.
- Assigning materials and textures to environmental and architectural elements, furniture, props, ships, vehicles and weapons.
- Assembling multi-part assets (Decorations, Rooms, etc).
- Generic guide to importing objects and assigning materials (Legacy Add-on-based. Needs updating).
- Snippets.
- Improving and customizing our SWTOR models and materials.
- Other Extracting Strategies (needs updating).
- SWTOR Materials recipes:
Modding isn't working since SWTOR moved to 64-bit codebase. Unless a new coder takes charge, it'll stay so indefinitely.
- Alternative techniques:
- Modding SWTOR textures with Special K (USE CAUTION).
Basically, use Jedipedia.net's tools and check our Discord. We'll see about adding new material, but this is very involved stuff.
- File Formats:
