How to rip game models to change textures?

Hello! I tried to use ninja ripper but i need an exe file location to use it. also, how can i change textures in game? like a tomahawk or those respawn point setter things?

@SxolarBit you have to dump the textures from the game's files using tom crowley's ipak extractor: https://tom-crowley.co.uk/downloads/ bo2's .ipak files are located in the zone folder.
Then just follow this tutorial https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/10167/tutorial-mp-how-to-change-the-background-of-bo2, it's for backgrounds but it works the same way for any other texture.
There's also this https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/13319/all-bo2-original-files-organized-images-sounds-obj-death-machine-skin you could check that pack contains the texture you need so you don't have to dump everything yourself.

Dss0 I downloaded the exe you told me to get and it says drag to the exe. do i drag it to the tom_bo2_ipak_1.22.exe or something else.? i already tried to do that. is there another way?

@SxolarBit you drag the .ipak file from your game folder onto the exporter exe, it will then be exported into a subfolder in the same folder the exporter is in.
Well the other way is to look through the textures this guy posted https://forum.plutonium.pw/topic/13319/all-bo2-original-files-organized-images-sounds-obj-death-machine-skin and see if the one you want to modify is in there.

Dss0 I drag the dss file to the exe but the exe instantly closes and there is no iwi file. it says there should be a new folder called images in t6r/data. ieven try to manually make the file but it still doesnt pop up with the iwi file.
