See Nexus Wiki if you need help extracting files from an ERF file in order to use them with Dragon Age. You can also unpack, or extract ERF files using ERF/RIM Editor. It supports other similar formats as well, like MOD, SAV, and RIM files, and even lets you pack, or create ERF files too.

Overview
This mini guide shows how to extract the files contained in erf and rim files to mod them for Dragon Age 2.
Required tools
- Mephales' pyGFF tool
Extract file from an erf or rim file
pyGFF editor
The process is very simple:
- Download Mephales' pyGFF tool and extract the contents of the zip in any folder you want.
- Note: Download and install also the optional file fnvdump-20110527.zip, as it translates the names of Bioware files into something readable.
- Launch editor.exe and you'll see a program like the one shown in picture pyGFF editor.
Extract a single file from an erf or rim file
Selecting a .gda file from the 2da.rim
For some file types, like .gda, .mmh, .msh and .moa, it is possible to extract only the desired file from the erf or rim file were it is packaged. To do that:
- In the pyGFF editor window select the File -> Open menu option.
- Select the erf or rim file that contains the file you want to open (see the list of Bioware packaging files and its contents below)
- A window will pop up showing the contents of the erf or rim file you've selected as shown in the Selecting a .gda file from the 2da.rim picture.
- Select the file you want to open, press Ok and this file will be opened in the pyGFF editor window.
- Select the menu option File -> Save as and save that single file in any forlder you want.
Extract all contents of an erf or rim file
For extracting files that pyGFF editor cannot edit, like textures (.dds files) or .uti files, you cannot use the procedure explained before. In this case, you have to extract all the contents of the erf or rim file into a temporary folder. To do this:
- In the pyGFF editor window select the File -> Export all menu option.
- Select the erf or rim file that contains the files you want to extract (see the list of Bioware packaging files and its contents below).
- Wait until the editor reads all the contents (in some cases it can take several seconds).
- When it is done, a window will pop up telling you to select a destination folder where to copy all the files that are going to be extracted. Select the folder and press OK.
- Note: I recommend that you create a new folder with a meaningful name to do this: it will be easier for you to find the extracted files later!
- Wait again until all files are copied into the folder you've selected. Once it is done, go to that folder and you'll see there the contents of the erf or rim file you've extracted.
