blender mod creating help

[jameshowe003]

hi
I'm currently having a go at using blender to try and create some mods I downloaded all the tools needed and I've watched tutorials but my problem at the moment is when copying the Euro Truck Simulator 2 game files such as base, etc copying the files is not working

my main question is what is the best way to copy the files via Blender File View ConverterPIX & BT

Can you be a little more specific as to what you are trying to achieve when you say copying files doesn't work?

As a shot in the dark, I imagine you need SCS Extractor to unpack the .scs archives.

got the Extractor it's copying files from one folder to another

Can you elaborate? Copying what files from what folder to where? What is not working?

when using the Blender File View ConverterPIX & BT ConverterPIX & BT I believe are SCS Tools for blender from one of the tutorials I watched you copy the games from Steam File on your computer to another you create

however everytime I try to copy and paste the steam local files it doesn't allow me to copy the folder and put it where I want it to be

If simple copying of files in windows isn't working then it's likely a permission or space issue. You should be able to simply copy and paste the base.scs and def.scs.

That said, going by what you are saying, if you cannot copy them and you are copying them to this location so you can then extract them, you should be able to extract the packages directly.

Put SCS Extractor in your game install. Right click on it and select create shortcut. Right click on the shortcut and select properties. Then edit the target line so it reads something like this...

"G:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Euro Truck Simulator 2\scs_extractor.exe" base.scs "E:\ETS2 Extract"

You can have multiple shortcuts for each package and give them appropriate names. Then when you want to unpack something you just double click the shortcut and it will unpack to the destination folder.

PIX_Wrapper, which 50keda wrote for converter_pix, allows you to import into Blender directly from .scs files. You can also include base.scs as 'extra archives'.
PIX Wrapper converts on import. It's a blender addon.
