I've made a maxscript to import models from the Portable Metal Gear titles into 3ds max. Supports mesh,bones,skinning and applys textures if you have the textures with their hashed name in a 'textures' folder. Some files seem to be using a compressed vertex buffer and there isn't support for that ye...

Hello everyone, recently a group of us who have previously created tools and reversed file types for metal gear solid games decided to create a wiki to share all of our knowledge. A lot of it is work that we have done alone over the years and kept knowledge to ourselves on. We decided instead to col...

I made a post about a wiki and discord we have made around Metal Gear Solid Files and Tools - viewtopic.php?f=28&t=16274

Its more likely it will work with the PC script. But I haven't tried most of the files myself as I don't want to spoil anything and I have limited time to play, but try it and see if it works. But bare in mind this script is only for importing models from the game into maxscript. It can't do the rev...

That's great, I look forward to it, Revelation definitely knows what he's doing and It'll be great to have the whole series in Noesis. I added a maxscript for the pc version to the original post which imports Models, UVs and Unskinned bones, the bone name strings arent in the model file anymore sadl...

That's great news, the decryption parts where I generally fall short, I can only figure out simple ones, but if you need help with any of the file specs let me know, although I'm sure Revelation has got you covered. The MGS series will be a great add for Noesis' library.

Yeah that's a good idea, I didn't even use this on many models I really don't want to spoil any part of it. Even though I'm biased as most of my work on these forums is for mgs games this has to be one of the best games released in the past few years, it's so amazing.

I did a quick port of what I made for Ground Zeroes to The Phantom Pain on PS3. Not complete, UV's are tempremental doesn't do bones, I've commented out those parts of the code but feel free to try the UVs as they work on some models, at this point I'd much rather play the game then fix this stuff :...

I updated the title as I realised Bluepoint games use the cmdl format for all the games they port, so this should work for any of their games on PS3, recently tried it with the ICO + SOTC Collection.

I made a little tool that unpacks files that have the magic 'SARC' .pack and .rarc files can be extracted with it.

Makes me wonder about the purpose of this thread and the ones who comment in it. I never mentioned that i went into Ground Zeroes Files and messed around with them, i haven't done this. It Seems that the ones who have chosen to go into the files were the ones themselves who had things they also wan...

Yeah some of the texture sizes were increased for hd collection, but not all of them. If I was kojima productions though I wouldn't be happy with the way bluepoint handled the porting, seeing as they've encrypted their files and everything in the past bluepoint just psarc'd it all and left it at that.

No there's no way to do that, you'll have to continue doing it manually.

Hmm if it's happening on the same rat model I used above, then maybe there are more faces you'll have to flip manually, did you use the unify option only or did you also flip faces manually?

the character of paz is an adult of mid 20s, not underage. I'm aware of Paz's age, but you said and if someone asks me if i can provide a nude mod for him, and i know how, i would do it. i think it's part of being a community. some people are weirdos, but what they do isn't my business. i would lik...
