How to extract models textures and animations / From UDK based games

I'm not much of a talker so lets just just jump right in here.

So you want to edit a MMO, FPS, whatever ... You just found out that Unreal was the engine well that's really good news for you lol

Step 1. Get a the game

Step 2. bla bla install it (If you want, there is ways around that.. putting .Dll's from the game in your C:, but whatever, just install the game)

Step 3 Get your self a copy of 3ds max, no one cares how you get it. but don't ask me lol

-------------------------------[ the unpacking of game files]--------------

Step 4 Your going to need to get Umodel you can get it here http://www.gildor.org/downloads save that link cause I will send you back there for a 3ds plugin

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~This will all have to take place from the root or your pc, so get use to being if your C: or where ever your root happens to be ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

for this example I will make up a directory

Step 5 Put "Umodel.exe"  in  C:\game\Umodel.exe

Step 6 open RUN

Step 7 Type "C:\game\umodel" (This will load umodel..like involving it in what wee are about to do) if all goes right you should see umodels info prompt up good

Step 8 Type "cd C:\game\deeper in the game\deeper yet\folder you want"
Right there wee just are pointing the CMD to Look in a carton folder that has the file wee want to crack open, going this by adding "cd" before the directory.

Step 9 Type "dir"
Now that wee are pointed at the folder wee should have a look, so wee type dir for a full list of files in our folder

Step 10 type C:\Game\umodel -export Castanic_F_Cook.gpk
Keep in mind wee are still looking at your folder
(C:\Game\umodel «-- this bit wakes up umodel)
(-export Castanic_F_Cook.gpk «-- This bit tell it to crack the file)

Step 11 In C:\game\deeper in the game\deeper yet\folder you want ... there will be a new folder with a dump of the files you wanted

--------------------------------[getting the models]---------------

Step 12 3ds users are lucky here wee can just import the model files using "ActorX Importer for 3ds Max"
it can be found here http://www.gildor.org/downloads

Step 13. install the 3ds plugin & start 3ds

If all goes right & you put the plug in in the right spot you should see 2 new box's when you open 3ds

So just open the PSK's you got & your good to go ;)

this tutorial just confuses me, i can't make sense of it,  when i type cd C:\game\deeper in the game\deeper yet\, i put BIOG_AnimTree_Humanoid (mass effect anims) right on the end but it just says system cannot find the path specified

If you put spaces in the folder name, you need to surround the path with quotes.
