Hey. I'm having a problem with the Fortnite game, it looks like encryption is used.
I enclose exe and two files of 10 mb through the program filecutter.bms (

This game uses the system of dividing pak into pieces (

I tried to find the encryption key through the HEX editor (
http://prntscr.com/hnhzyl) but it did not help. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? AES key is: VWSUATAUAVA
Thanks guys - I've successfully unpacked Paragon!
Thanks
. for his awesome quickbms!
Thanks
@mbit555 for the information above, you almost had it - the key is VWSUATAUAVAW
I wanted know how the heroes in Paragon are setup. I've watched all Unreal Engine Twitch streams, but I had to see it for myself.
This game is made by great artists, optimized using innovative techniques and developed by amazing devs!
Therefore I needed to rip the original models myself and not simply download one of the available ripped models, since most of them are modified.
I've tried using "UE4 pak-file Unpacker by Haoose v0.5", but it was crashing when trying to unpack "pakchunk0-WindowsClient.pak", therefore I switched to aluigi's quickbms.
Here's what I used:
1. Used quickbms_4gb_files.exe [0.8.1] with unreal_tournament_4.bms [0.4.13]. It said that the .pak is encrypted and asked for a key
2. Opened OrionClient-Win64-Shipping.exe with hex editor, searched for AES, found the key - VWSUATAUAVAW
3. Enter the key in cmd from step 1
4. Repeat for all .pak in the folder - pakchunk0-WindowsClient.pak is first, then pakchunk0_s1-WindowsClient.pak, then pakchunk0_s2-WindowsClient.pak, etc.
5. Done!
Extracted models using UMODEL by Gildor - select "Override game detection" checkbox, select "Unreal Engine 4" and version "4.18".
Umodel was crashing when trying to open characters - something to do with skeletons - I just moved all files ending with _Skeleton to a backup folder in case this is fixed in the future, but you can delete them.

Here are the game names:
Venus - THE FEY
Mambo - MORIGESH
Vamp - COUNTESS
Sparrow - SPARROW
Gadget - GADGET
Femme - YIN
Ice - AURORA
Fallen Angel - SERATH
Medic - ???
Mudang - ???
Muriel - MURIEL
Phase - PHASE
Tacticia - LT-BELICA
Totem - DEKKER
PS: I'm just a technical artist, I don't know how this worked I'm just happy it did and you guys made some great tools for that!
