Capabilities

Everything you need to rip a Sim

From game packages to Blender-ready files — fully local, no cloud, no sign-up.

🧍

Sim extraction

Full skinned mesh + rig + textures exported as .DAE + .png — the unified TS3Ripper pipeline (SIME → SIMO → CASP → VPXY → GEOM).

.DAE
⬇️

GLB export

Clean, Blender-ready .GLB with embedded textures. Clean rig (only bones used by the meshes) — compatible with Blender 3.6+.

🎭

3D preview

Inspect the sim with textures, skeleton and wireframe before exporting. Pick any outfit and LOD level (0–3).

🎬

Poses & animations

Extract animation files directly from .package files — no S3PE needed. Export clips as .animation or .package.

Auto-indexing

Scans every .package in Mods/Packages (and subfolders), listing animations with name, frames, fps, duration — search and batch-select.

Workflow

How to use

From game folder to finished model in five steps.

  1. Set your folders

    Game root (GameData), Mods/Packages, SavedSims and an output folder.

  2. Scan packages

    Click Scan packages — all found sims appear in the list.

  3. Pick a sim & outfit

    Select from the list and choose the LOD (0 = highest quality).

  4. Rip & export

    Rip outfit builds the model, then Export .DAE + textures or Export .GLB (recommended for Blender).

  5. Animations

    Open an animation package or index the Mods, select clips and export as .animation.

  6. Blender tip

    Always prefer .GLB: the rig is clean and compatible with Blender 3.6+.

Setup

Installation

Choose your operating system.

  1. Download the .deb

    Grab it from the Downloads section above.

  2. Install it

    Open a terminal in the folder and run:

    sudo apt install ./ts3ripper-neutralino_amd64.deb
  3. Launch

    Open "TS3Ripper Neutralino" from the app menu. Pick a port (or leave auto) and click Start — the UI opens in your browser.

Requirements: Node.js 18+, Python 3 + GTK3 (installed automatically as package dependencies).

  1. Download & extract

    Get the Windows zip above and extract the folder.

  2. Option A — .exe

    Run TS3RipperNeutralino.exe — its own window via WebView2 (standard on Windows 10/11).

  3. Option B — browser

    Run Iniciar.bat (requires Node.js) — opens the UI in your browser; more stable with huge packages.

Import the GLB

Use Blender's built-in glTF importer (3.6 or newer). The rig comes ready to animate.

Blender 3.6 ecosystem

All files on this site are compatible with the Blender 3.6 ecosystem and newer.

Rig & Animation

Move original TS3 animations to the GLB rig

We provide Auto Rig Pro as your rigging tool — download it with the ready-made remap preset (.bmap) in the section above. The GLB rig exported by the program is the recommended one, compatible with Blender 3.6 or newer. The program itself extracts the animation files — no S3PE required, and it's easy to use.

Step 1

Export .animation

In TS3Ripper Neutralino, export your clips as .animation files.

Step 2

Import into original rig

In Blender, use the Lazy Duchess addon to import the .animation into the original Sims 3 rig.

Step 3

Remap to GLB rig

With Auto Rig Pro, apply the remap preset to transfer the animation to the GLB rig.
