Help! Minimal Tool: ExtractStrings not working

I'm trying to figure out where the songs on the radio stations are stored so I'm going through the pack files.

However, the ExtractStrings tool is crashing when I try to unpack a .le_strings file.


C:\Projects\Saints Row 4\work>ThomasJepp.SaintsRow.ExtractStrings.exe sriv static_us.le_strings
Loading XTBL files...

Unhandled Exception: System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null.

Did you manage to solve this? The only reason I can think that this would happen is if it can't find your SRIV installation.

The latest versions of the tools should be pretty reliable at finding it - they look for your steam install then parse the steam manifests to find the installation.

For non-steam titles such as SR2/SRTT's GOG release, you can also specify the path to your install directly in the settings.json file.
