Star Trek Online (need unpacker)

[lyutor1945]

Hi guys!! Recently I came across star trek online and models in this game are pretty good. My friend is ready to make a script to extract these models,but first you need to unpack Mset and wtex files. For those who are interested And ready to make unpacker, the samples below:)

those wtex samples are crunch compressed, tools posted in that link won't work with them.
Noesis supports crunch and there is a python script here that works on some

edit
ok here is modified Noesis python script to open all the wtex samples and possibly htex textures too,
or at least the ones from this thread viewtopic.php?f=18&t=15666&p=125609
*script updated March 6, 2018*

this might be the last update i make on this script, it is becoming more chaotic than anticipated.
there are only a few textures i seen so far that are storing mipmaps first and i don't have enough
diverse samples to compare and confirm flags so i will give the users more control here.
in the updated script on line 4 is where you can change to 0 or 1 (false or true),
it is set to 1 or true by default, so if you see a texture that displays with mipmaps first
you must change that line in the script and save and reload plugins, then you can export that texture
and it will look correct.

i have also seen a htex texture that starts with a valid dds header but it stores mipmaps first and
Noesis will override any command i throw at it because it thinks the dds is normal.
so i have made a bms script that you can run on those to get a fixed dds texture that you can open.

Code: Select all

# script for QuickBMS http://aluigi.altervista.org/quickbms.htm

idstring "DDS "
get SIZE asize
get NAME basename
string NAME + _fixed.dds
goto 0x14
get DATASIZE long
xmath OFFSET "SIZE - DATASIZE"
append
log NAME 0x0 0x80
log NAME OFFSET DATASIZE
append

There was someone who made an extractor for STO's Mset files at one point. I think that project was dropped but I still have the file on hand. Shoot me a note.

If you still have the program to unpack .mset models I'll make a maxscript for model import. So, if you have any unpacked .mset sample attach it here I will take a look. Thanks.

I've still got it.

Acewell: if you need more textures from STO let me know as I have unpacked versions of the texture hoggs from last years version of the game sitting around and I am sure I can do the same with the current game. A lot of work swapping textures in the game is going on at Undertow and they have been updating the hoggs toolset with each new release.

Hi @all.

Does anyone got the Costume<xxx>.bin Converted?

If, in xml would be awesome.

And also howto create Materials from Textures in 3d Apps (Blender would be nice, 2.8+)

Howto determin if Model needs Mirroring?

Is there something about the Skeletons as Information out there?

Wouldnt it be cool to have the Picard-Maneuver as an Animation?

@Acewell: thx for the script noesis works much better now.

That Noesis script doesn't seem to work anymore for textures, I get the following error when viewing and trying to export .wtex textures:
