Genshin Impact - Model Ripping help? - Sneakyerz - 04-22-2021

Hello everyone! As you all know, Genshin Impact runs on Unity with encrypted .blk files, though, somehow sound files can be extracted if I'm not mistaken but I haven't checked on that that much.
There are private groups who managed to crack it down and managed to extract anything from the game. I understand that why they're doing this in private is due to Mihoyo does not want their game to get leaked and wants to tighten their security. Mihoyo did actually release some models for MMD (here) but I honestly prefer to extract models rather downloading them because there might be some weird bugs with the model or something.
Anyways, the game uses XOR encryption or of some sort, this thread here from ZenHax is like the only one that tried to crack the security but eventually got bumped due to inactivity I guess. I cannot crack down files with XOR or anything like that, It's just way beyond me but I really want to learn it (But it's so hard!). So I really want to play around with these models, and if there's anyone around here who's willingly to help me out, please comment down below!

I will provide the latest files that contains models, textures and animations if possible (For those who doesn't have the game installed). The link for the latest version of Genshin Impact is "here".

I'm interested.  What tools do I need to get started?

well they already tried to datamine using these tools from github but suddenly mihoyo had started updating the security of the .blk files from the game.

We tried looking for answers in these sites:
https://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=21953
https://zenhax.com/viewtopic.php?t=13317
https://zenhax.com/viewtopic.php?t=14172&p=61650
https://zenhax.com/viewtopic.php?t=13317&p=55992
https://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=21951

...but none of them had to do it publicly because mihoyo would track them down to cover for another way of securing these assets strictly, even Honkai Impact's .wmv encrypted files.

So, we had no hope, except for other chinese dataminers that were able to get the models from the .blk files and converted them to mmd for other shairing sites like hoyolab.com and aplaybox.com for free.

hello, i apologize for bumping such an old thread

there is a user by the name of "lukatoni5" who has uploaded the 2.4 update here https://www.deviantart.com/lukatoni5/art/Genshin-Impact-2-4-models-902460646

however, i am having an issue of finding the "fatui skirmisher" models. i've been searching for a while tonight and thought it might be worth while the share the raw dump here
