FIFA 13 Modding - What do we know?

[MKDAWUSS]

I know it (the demo) just came out and all, but with the life cycle these games tend to have...

 

[MattWidz]

well we know the BIG files are encrypted for PC, so probably going to have to decrypt them to do anything..

Kits are same like in fifa 12.

what do you use to edit them or view them?

 

[MattWidz]

also that you can't have the files from the BIG's outside the BIG, they have to be inside, not in their own directory..

Anything can't be done withowt the db

How do you know that? I think it should be possible as before. But you have to update the bh-files, like any regenerator for fifa 12 did. We have to update them.

I noticed no DLC folder in the demo, do you know if they did away with the compdata files and put everything back into the db again?

I can confirm that you can make the game read files from folders and not from .big files.

did you edit the .BH to make it so it doesnt like read it from the .BIG?

I'm using Texmod for editing balls for the moment, it's time consuming but it works.

Hi guys. The screen I´ve posted is a proof that we will be able to import a FIFA 12 face in FIFA 13 and that all FIFA 12 faces work in FIFA 13. And of course even when we are not able to decrypt .big files the game reads them from folders if you change bh files.

How did I do ? I´ve just checked the algorithm for files in FIFA 12 and I search for same algorithm in FIFA 13. I´ve placed files in folders and ready. So FIFA 13 files has the same names than FIFA 12 ones.

Fantastic news, waiting for a tool to import the stuff
Just one thing, could you test the stadiums?
Due to the movements of the stewards, coaches and that stuff, Im wondering if they didn't changed the compression to them.

Excellent, at least in faces we can use FIFA12 faces and facemaking techniques
