did anyone have success in converting the model with proper faces..

wow, good job man. haven't seen much done with lightwave before, I didnt know it had a scripter

yup hacking is impossible to avoid.. especially on a file hacking site lol

that fanfurry guy did

theres a mod converter that works across this game, dmc4 and re5

try searching this site through google, its gotta be around here somewhere

EDIT
Oops, haha just noticed I bumpped this from 2008 sorry

its a BMS lol use quickBMS

also I converted all the main models (4200+)

took screenshot of everything (No Materials Assigned)

theres a dos tool floating around, where someone just specified the offsets of the geometry in a single file from the psp game. I think its just misinformation, but that's far from a working importer. although I can varify that another hacker (japanese) was successful in cracking the format. however...

:| hmm.. I'm wondering myself how your having this problem. setting materials in max can be a bit confusing.. but otherwise straight forward and especially since I gave you that file which works fine on my system. Only thing I can think of, is that the example images you provided are of the viewer p...

cool, did you have to modify anything, or it just opened in the directx SDK?

usually you get a bunch of floats, for different data. what you have to do is findout the vertex size.. basically thats how many bytes there are that define 1 vertex. but that one line of bytes could include more then xyz position. it could also include normals, texture corrdinates, vertex colours, ...

which model? tell me the model and I'll setup a max scene EDIT Sorry, noticed you supplied the texture already. I've setup and example scene in max8. checkout the material for the hair, or drag and drop that material onto your scene's current hair. http://i51.tinypic.com/v8gb5s.jpg you can change th...

the models are a bit annoying to work with, as max does not work well with double faces. although the VC models don't exactly have double faces.. more or less faces that are very close together.. and they somehow show in a render. I use max 8 by the way, so my results may be very different then your...

from skimming over your blog, it looks like your capable of creating your own model importer.
DX specs aren't secret either, I bet its in the directX SDK.

textures show a full face for kasumi, but its a recycled from another model

awesome, thanks man. NMH is my favorite game, such a shame the dev closed the book on the series. EDIT http://i56.tinypic.com/1zd0o02.jpg if vertsize == 0x20 do ( vx = ReadBEfloat f vy = ReadBEfloat f vz = ReadBEfloat f fseek f 0x4#seek_cur -- FFs tu = (ReadBEHalfFloat f) * 2 tv = (ReadBEHalfFloat f...
