So for people that don't know the game compresses all its Data Files and Other Formats in a .BFZ file format, This format is a compression file with the BMS Encoding constructor, Extracting a .BFZ File can be a bit hard and tricky but it is easy if you know what your doing.


To extract the .BFZ Archive and De-Compress it follow the sections below.
Downloads.
You must download these programs as we will be using these to extract the archives.

ZombiU BFZ Data Extractor
Version: 0.2
By: PackedUP32

This program will extract almost all .BFZ Files inside Zombi/ZombiU (Steam Edition)
This program will only work on Zombi/ZombiU

1. Open a command shell, (CMD or Powershell)
2. Navigate to the direcotry of the quickbms folder.
3. Place your BFZ Archive inside the folder alongside "quickbms.exe"
4. Run this command to extract the archive
quickbms.exe (script.bms) (Archive.bfz) (Output Directory)
Note: Replace all () Marks with what it is supposed to be, These are just examples

5. To extract anything larger then 4GB replace the "quickbms.exe" at the start of the command with "quickbms_4gb_files.exe"
6. Boom!
Notes.
!~NOTES~!
When setting your output directory set it like either options:
  • C:\Root\Directory\output
  • or
  • C:\Root\Directory\output\
Adding the \ at the end of your output directory will make it create a new folder for each archive

Discord link isn't dead, Had to take down discord server due to TOS.
I got my server taken down by discord TOS for "Cracking Software Licenses"

someone was able to rip a model from Rabbids Go Home, whihc is also on the LyN engine, also using ninja ripper and dolphin emulator. Has ripping from a WiiU iso been tried? Also, the discord link is dead.

I've been having recent issues with sound, sounds just not being there and music being missing etc. I want to join the zombi modding discord server but the link is invalid, could we maybe get in touch or something? I really love this game and want to know how to maybe roll it back a version or anything so I can actually not have these obnoxious sound bugs

Not sure, It has been a challenge for me and my friends and we are still trying to figure out how to import the models, We have tried ubisosfts own modeling programs and artwork programs with very little success

Is there any research being done on a blender importer for the model format?

the built-in u-play drm jumbles the geometry of models ripped using ninjaripper
practically making them unrecognizable
