Opening VPKs

[xlimeTigerx]

I heard from one of the miners that there is an old TitanFall 1 tool, from 2014, that allows you to open Apex's VPK files.

Can someone help me track it down?

[OWONECKO]

Was messing around with the VPK editor. I opened Apex\vpk\englishclient_mp_common.bsp.pak000_dir.vp k and found this. Might be of interest? Could just be something for console players, don't know at the minute.

Edit:
Contents of the file is this:

[NeoXiphos]

In the englishclient_frontend.bsp.pak000_dir there is a text file called playlists_r5. Inside that file is a setting where the boolean to disable aim assist is turned on. I turned it off, thus enabling aim assist, and repackaged it. It worked in the actual game and when you fired near a body, instead of recoiling up, your aim would "recoil" into a headshot. However, I got greedy and tried to increase the magnet settings from 1 and 1 which I originally changed them to, to 2 and 2 and now the game will not work with the repackaged vpks at all. Any idea on what is going on?

bro can please show me how to repakage vpk file

We know how to extract vpk files, edit them, and repack them, but the issue is the pop up error when starting game. Need to find a way to bypass that error. For those who cannot get into the game after you attempted this trick open Origin>My Game Library>Right Click Apex Legends>Repair. DONE game will work again.

how to repackage?

[zemix31]

This error appeared due to the fact that during the packaging, all files were damaged. You can check. Just open playlists_r5 again. It is necessary to understand how to pack this file without errors..

No, I can repack perfectly fine. Unless your error is because you're using an older version of the tool. I have version 3.4
The error I get is that it detects the file is checksum is different than the original. It is the same error you get if you try to modify almost any other file

You were imagining things. Modifying that number would not do anything without other changes, and files do not load when they are modified. Also, aim assist snaps when you ADS, not when you recoil in paticular

how do i enable aim assist i found the file but i dont know how to turn it on

[TracerLT]

hey, did someone managed to pack it correctly and could share the file with us?

[OWONECKO]

Doesn't look like it's possible at all to modify the VPK and get a successful launch. Tried modifying a lot of different things, always crashes.

[OPbush]

wait how do u enable the vpk? do u have to put it in the vpks folder? if so it didnt crash but didn
