My Nihongo is pretty rusty...... How'd you learn? I was happily subjected to it during two amazing visits to Japan teaching ESL. I'd gladly take yiour translations as i don't trust mine to be any good at all. I've found, often by accident, that renaming a mesh file to another known extension makes i...

Ouch. That hurts. Heh.
Oh well. If I can figure out how to open and export it, I'm sure I could clean it up.
A bit.

Okay I think it's finally sunk in. After extracting stage.mgz, I get a selection of subfolders. The example subfolder "s15c" has a selection of files in it. stg_mdl1.dar is a compression of models. stg_tex1.dar and stg_tex2.dar are compressions of textures. In the texture .dar fiiles are the .pcx fi...

Oh him! Yah, I'd sent him an email when I used Solidus and got in a jam with MGS. I hadn't thought of sending an example .kmd file. Do I understand correctly, .kmd is the 3D mesh info for characters, vehicles, etc in MGS? Just reread some of the posts so much and I think I did more to confuse myself...

I didn't know wether .dar was a deeper archive or a proprietary 3D model, so your words are helpful. After your words, I rechecked the .dar files. You're correct. Therein, I see .pcx files and others, such as .kmd. .Pcx is self explanitory, while the .kmd aren't as much. I'll keep searching and hope...

Metal Gear Solid 1 for PC.

Hello all. I've searched and browsed through the forums, but am unable to find an answer to what I'm looking for. I have MGS for the PC and because of it's age, I'm not sure that it would or would not use 3D meshes or just animation. I've used a few programs to successfully extract the .mgz files (n...

It's been a while since this topic has been replied to, but i thought I'd add my 2 cents. Deep Ex has a very large file conversion library, is easy to use and is amongst the most stable. Those bonuses offset it's price, which I happily paid. It's been able to convert binary to x very nicely. On one ...
