Is the process of ripping models from EA wii games different from ripping wii models from other games or is it the same?

i' m thinking of ripping from Boom Blox: Bash Party, but i'm stumped at what to do...

Yeah, EA's file formats tend to be trickier to work with. I have a few EA games ripped and I'd like to rip Family Game Night 4 in particular, but it seems like not much people have dared to try and reverse engineer their formats. There's a bunch of wacky extensions like .spa and .wam. Googling around doesn't seem to yield any information on an engine name. For anyone else watching, I've uploaded a sample here.

Places to get help:
DYKG/VG Resource Discord - This is where most of the ripping experts on the VG Resource hang out these days, so you should probably start here. Any requests to rip stuff (i.e. "Please rip sounds/models/sprites from game X!") are only allowed here as per the rules.

ResHax forum - Another forum that is home to most of the reverse engineers who were on the old ZenHax and XenTax forums. A great place to get help for any mysterious files. I'm also there under the same username.

And remember, always upload example files. That way, people don't have to dig in and fetch them for you.
