It is command line utility, you need to run it from command prompt with arguments.

Open command prompt as administrator (CTRL-SHIFT-ESC to run Task Manager, then File - Run new task - type "cmd", tick "create this task with administrative priviledges", click ok.). Commands you'll need to enter:

1) change active folder to BDO ads folder (make sure that you're using correct path, it could be different on your computer, for example steam version is installed in different folder):

c:
cd "c:\Program Files (x86)\Black Desert Online\ads"

2) Decrypt languagedata_en.loc file to readable format:

BDO_decrypt.exe languagedata_en.loc languagedata_en.txt

First off, thanks for having patience with me. Not pc savy to say the least. I got this message in the prompt "BDO_decrypt <encrypt file> <output file>. I then proceeded to edit the file via notepad++, but the same unreadable codex is still present.

My cmd looked like this

E:\
E:cd "e:\Program Files (x86)\ads" (Quotations and all)

e:\Program Files (x86)\adsBDO_decrypt.exe languagedata_en.loc language_en.txt

Actually, it is cool. No big deal.

Hello, guys.
First of all, thank to you with creating modding tools for BDO.
I have some questions for my works.

I am using 3ds max 2018 for modifying armor model. It can't open converted dae. files.
Someone said in this thread that i should have used 3ds max 2017.
But, 2017 can't still open those. (can do that with 3D converter)
I think the converter has a problem with doing process.

Here is the second question.
Can't i still change armors with any other game's that?
I wanna change starting armor to 2B's one (Nier: Automata).
I have texture files with 2B.
Is it right modifying texture with pab. file?

I wish whoever built some scripts for 3ds max with modding BDO.

Hmm that is strange. You are using pac tool to get the DAE yes? Then you import into 3Ds Max 2017?
You can send me the file and I can try it. What process are you using to get the DAE?

A few have figured out how to put models from other games into Black Desert. Seems it it not easy and they are still working out the kinks.
I just barely got my first modified model working in the game.
Once I figure everything out I plan on making a tutorial. it is slow going though because I work full time and do not have a lot of time to work on modding.

If this has been asked, I apologize, could u point me where?

Anyways, I recently had to replace harddrives, and now meta injector fails to find backup, and when run, it fails to patch any files (I am attempting to hide/make invisible the sails on personal ships)

( https://www.undertow.club/attachments/ships2-zip.64174/?temp_hash=bdb11bace78ac1d275e206ef34361541 - only attempting to inject the 'sail' named items, 9 files total)

I think it's because of how they re-sized the files, I can't get this or the nude mod to work anymore, could someone be patient enough to explain what I am doing wrong? (or is there a new improved way to remove sails?)

Always keep a hard copy of the latest pad00000.meta file so you can manually restore it.
I recommend a fresh install of the game, and after keep a hard copy of meta file after every patch.
Its possible they changed the name of the sails, though not sure why they would.

Can you update the injector tool please? I get "corrupted file" crash 90% of the time with modded pad00000.

you're not supposed to use a modded file while patching

 

[manowar111]

you're not supposed to use a modded file while patching

It crashes during loading screens when you change character or channel.

 

[Kitty Ears]

Well I can confirmMeta Injector for NA after today's patch no longer works.

It seems to leave any edited textures invisable. The model I edited is working somewhat (cat ears), but the fur fringe returned for some reason.

It is a sad day.

On a side note I can not find my screen shots anymore. No idea if they changed to location, or if its even related to the mod.

 

[Terix3]

MI works the files do get patched without error but the game refuses to load the textures for whatever reason. Much like if you try to patch in combination xml that would result in game crash.

Thanks for updating metainjector, BlackFire
However, i met a problem when i used the latest version of the metainjector.
It showed an error message about system running out of memory and shut down immediately.
Here comes the photo.

May i ask that how can this problem be solved?

Try running it as admin.
If it doesn't work, restore the backup for one that has the file version in the end.
For example pad00000[2018-02-08][1904].meta.backup

Thanks for the suggestion.
However, the same error occurred although i restore the backup and open the program as admin.
I wonder whether it is the problem of setting the limit of memory capacity?
As I tried to partially input the mod files into four times (in total of 1200 files), the error message was only shown during the third time of input (after inputting around 600 files).
Further, there is one line of error message indicating that 於 system.10.Memory stream.set_Capcity (Int32 value)

Finally, I found the problem that some files of my mod was corrupted.
This may be the reason why the meta injector closed down.
However, there is another problem.
After using latest version of meta injector to inject the mod files into PAZ folder, the launcher replace the files before entering the game.
Is there any solutions for this problem?

Use Restore N' Patch from: BDO Toolkit - A .NET modding library for Black Desert Online

Use Restore N' Patch from: BDO Toolkit - A .NET modding library for Black Desert Online

May I ask that where should i put the Restore N' Patch in?
If I put the Patch in "Paz" file and run the program, the program showed an error massage "Could not find the Black Desert Online Launcher".
So, does this mean that I need to put the patch in the folder with "BlackDesert64.exe"?

Try this:

Right click Drag to create a shot cut（右クリックでドラッグしてショットカットを作成）

Right-click the shortcut and open the property from the pop-up menu（ショートカットを右クリックでポップアップメニューの中からプロパティを開く）

Link destination
Add "[halfwidth space] -idle" at the end（リンク先　末尾に「半角スペース　-idle」を書き加える）
Finally OK or apply　　　　　　　　　（最後にOKか適用）

Really, really thanks you greatly for the information, BlackFire
The patch runs properly now.
