📋 About This Mod
Description
In January 2025 the game was updated to include in-game modding and the format of skeletal meshes was changed. As a result the original version of the HL-specific FModel (HL v1. 0. 0. 0 / FModel v4. 4. 1. 1, here) is no longer able to read skeletal mesh data. This version (HL v2. 0. 0. 0 / FModel v4. 4. 1. 2) corrects that.
Installation instructions
-
[]Download the zip file.[/]
[]Unzip it wherever you want FModel.exe to reside. Anywhere will do.[/]
[]Double-click FModel.exe to run it.[/]
[]Alternatively, build it yourself from the source on github.[/]
Original features
Allows mod creators to view the contents of the game files, examine asset JSON info and export certain types of asset.
New features
-
[]Can read and export new-format skeletal meshes from the latest versions of the game.[/]
[]Never asks if you want to update to the latest version of FModel (because you must never do that).[/]
Known Issues
If you try to save a model that's split into sections, it won't work. I'm still trying to figure out the new format for sections.
Acknowledgements
Many thanks to LongWarrior for the original version, of which this is a fork.
An updated build of FModel tailored for Hogwarts Legacy, enabling reading and exporting of skeletal meshes in the new post-Jan-2025 format. Essential for modders working with recent game updates, though it has limited community traction so far.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Directly addresses a real problem: the new mesh format broke older tools, and this fixes it
- Purpose-built for Hogwarts Legacy, so no generic tool bloat
- Fresh update (April 2026) means it's current with the game's latest changes
⚠️ Cons
- Tiny user base (5 endorsements) — you're an early adopter, so expect rough edges
- Only covers skeletal meshes; if you need other asset types, this won't help
For Hogwarts Legacy modders who need to extract skeletal meshes after the January 2025 update broke existing tools. If you're a casual player, skip this — it's a technical utility, not a gameplay mod.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this is a tool, not a game mod, you'll run it separately from the game — make sure you have the latest .NET runtime installed.
- Check the FModel wiki for general usage, as the author didn't provide specific instructions here.
- If you're extracting meshes for modding, export to a dedicated folder to keep your workflow organized.
