So with Senran Kagura coming to PC, I'm hoping someone will be so kind as to create some tools/scripts/etc for the lovely ladies. Are you a lovely lady? :D Fortunately the files are organized fairly nicely so it's easy to get the model/texture package. yep they are. And it would be rather easy imho...

I get AQO. files, which I believe should work in Noesis with a Plugin. If you have fmt_phantStarOnl2.py in your Noesis plugins\python folder: 'yes'. (There should be this line contained in the lower listbox in Noesis: Phantasy Star Online 2 (*.aqo)) But if you had read this thread carefully you sho...

that's not too much -
I found some funny point clouds - maybe it's animation data. But I don't have time to investigate further. If you own the PC version of the game try out some 3D ripper.

great to see your progress! (though I find this python crxp is harder to deal with than 'C' or maxscript in many cases )

talking about DBallExtract.exe ? It's not heavily tested, just with two dff models, as explained in its opening screen. Try out one of the three go buttons - if it doesn't work you're lost then, sry. (I've the older version here, new one seems to have 4 buttons - should work similar, though.) Import...

as I wrote: "I never would" :D Guess you've to code it manually in python with two nested loops for example. I tried string = self.inFile.readBytes(100) index = string.find(b"\xFF") and astonishingly index contained a correct offset address. But iirc find() was intended to be used for textual search...

the idx should contain offsets into the bin file, iirc
I can't get fiitting offsets from the bin/idx pair you provided.

But there's much uncompressed data in the bin - search for 'skeleton' to see what I mean.

Got some skeleton at 0x3d50, FVFsize=64:

I really appreciate that you spent your time to help to solve this problem. Thanks again! Your welcome - but it's a workaround only. The problem is solved once we got the formula to skip the bones block. It's 0x12FC..0x1638 = 0x33C = 828 dec. (104) 0x105c..0x13ac = 0x350 = 848 dec. (80) The value i...

it can be done rather simple in this case: skip the bone names and search for the first float value.
You'll need to know how floats are expressed as 4 hex values, first vertex: x,y,z -> 3 floats -> 3x4 hex bytes (little endian):

A48CB837 2099FB40 B2A21441

don't have the time to care for the script but a quick glance at 100201_1_02_0000.dxg reveals that the startaddress of vertices: 0x12fc used by the script is deadly wrong, it's 0x1638. Simply add self.inFile.seek(0x1638) before mesh.vertBuff = self.inFile.readBytes(numCoords * 12) Take care of the i...

to my knowledge the bin file is worth nothing without the suiting idx

This thread is a reminder for myself to get the skel2smd extractor released 'til the end of 2017. (I'm struggeling with this idea since 18 + 9 months now and seems I've to push myself a little bit.) It shares the same basic idea like hex2obj , that ugly mesh extractor, that requires to search for "r...
