Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 #5

Hi, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 runs on the same engine as Skylanders, albeit slightly older as it came out in 2009. I was wondering if you'd be willing to take a look at that game to see if the tools could be used with that game? Modding is currently impossible with that game, as the files are stored in .bin, and then inside the bins are the engine files. We can unpack the bins with these files, we just can't actually modify the models and such afterwards due to the formats https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=781337670

Thanks!

Hi, I do plan to research these files and am already researching mua 1, igArchiveExtractor however will not be the answer, it's based on incorrect knowledge of the game files and correcting this will be too much hassle, and it'll be much easier to just start afresh.

I'm currently working on a framework for editing the files and will inform you once it's able to edit mua2 files, but do expect that to take a very long time
