off: for me h2o always something like "every time from scratch" because when I want to use it I always start from tutorial for it to then proceed with the format I want. its ui is confussing shit out off me. I always thought that it can be simplier but then 'Model researcher' came up. I do...

some week ago I manage to do the maxscript for this game.

I did the most part and since I have no expirience in bone/weight I got huge help from
zaramot - a local 3ds max guru.

So here's the script: https://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=18517

maxscript for characters of AFL Evolution 2018 Supported: - geometry - uv (2 channels) - bones - weights Unsupported: - everything else p.s.: models are separated into pieces (body, head etc). To get the full character with single skeleton you need load the models one by one — the script will use ex...

I'm posting here some progress. I decided to walk away from language that doesn't have any docummented base to the language I familiar with a bit more. I might get back to python later. I did the basic format research and continue doing it (morphs, skeleton, weights, normals are on the way). My frie...

in noesis, how to skip junk data like texture path at the beginning of If the length of this path is before it?

in noesis, how to skip junk data like texture path at the beginning of If the length of this path is before it?

path is: player\texture\eye\eye_brown_d.dds and before is 24 00 00 00 - it's a length of the path, how can I use this length to skip this amount of bytes for now?

It's just a piece of pseudo code in C to help you understand the structure of the vertex format. It's equivalent to the following pseudo code. Type Specification long boneCount for i = 1 to boneCount { long boneID float boneWeight } but why you used 'long' for boneCount and boneID (?) — it's 4 byte...

ahh, thats what 00 00 80 3F stands for it's 100% (red) weight for head bone, am I right? also, I think I need to create some sort of script or plugin to build mesh out of this data. So any advice on this would be greatfully usefull! Noesis, maxscript? Can I use structure I found right away with noes...

I have a head mesh. there's a 4 submeshes: eyes, eyelashes, face and teethguard. I build vertices, polys and uv for all except the face — it splitted into small pieces and each piece separate with some sort of padding usually look like this: 06 00 00 00 D3 9B 6A 3F 06 00 00 00 B4 A6 6C 3F 06 00 00 0...

but link is working

Hello,

firstly, this is not modding community
secondly, in 99% of 100% cases no one will download full game and rip only one model only for you
thirdly, you may ask for help to convert model from this game by attaching sample model

other than that your repply will always be unanswered

... I don't know which is correct texture for each model, how do you find them? it's manually only. I'm sure that nobody will bother to do a tool to parse depencies between models and textures. If only some huge fan of this game gonna make a list of these depencies for everyone else, but this is ag...

I ripped chaos theory characters just fine with nR (yes, it's ninja ripper). Only the normals are broken — just reset them with normal modifier within 3ds max.

p.s.: ripped models have full info including weight data — you can even build a full skeleton. Use GIMS ninja importer to load that data.

Meshes are either very distorted, or are impossible to edit or even import to Blender at all... I can only view the models in Noesis, 3DS Max, but when I try to manipulate them in 3Ds Max it just behaves extremely weird. I uploaded my rips here and I wish good luck to anyone that can export it for ...
