Ninja Ripper and Nox. Ripping models from apk - Serial - 07-16-2019
So I used to rip models from mobile games using ninja ripper and the nox android emulator, but I figured that this method has gotten outdated. The latest version of nox seems to block ninja ripper and ninja ripper hasn’t gotten an update in forever. Older versions of nox do work with ninja ripper, but the older versions of nox cannot run the latest versions of certain apps.
So I’m trying to figure out if there is some emulator out there that still can work with ninja, but finding a much more efficient way to rip models from the apk’s files would be nice as well.
Any suggestions?

Many if not all Android APKs can be opened as .zip files, so perhaps try doing that.

Usually assets like models aren’t placed in obvious locations and I’ll have to guess which file types are actually models. I’ll have to ask more questions that other people can help out, like. Is there any apk model formats I should look out for. Is there a less tedious way to rip the models? What converter would I need once I do get the model data?

Since a majority of mobile games are powered by Unity,Asset Studio is a tool i'd recommend as it's the best option so far for the engine.
There obviously are the games that aren't Unity and they could either be Unreal or have an unique engine,those you really need to look deep for the model files and formats.
Another thing that also happens is models being kept on separate downloads that don't come with the original apk,and while that can be a problem,you can find obb files that hold those since people tend to post them (most of the time they work like apks,you can just rename them to .zip).
Good luck with your ripping tho,hope to have helped.
