Battlefield 4 chunk meshes

[luxox18]

inside the file *.mesh we can found the name of the 3d model chunk



the models are not compressed.

maybe someone can analyze and convert the models

thanks

that's too easy, isn't it?


H2O file:
0xDD10 3780
VB1
36 32
0x0 1144
0202

(Search for UV data might be more difficult.)
edit: nope - UVpos is 32

thanks for this, was easy but I don't know how to calculate the VB size.

note: the name of the lod00 models inside the mesh file are in 0xC8 position.

[shakotay2]

Vertex Block size should be the same for most models in the game.

You don't need to calculate it - it's just experience, finding patterns:



VBsize is the distance (offset in bytes) between the patterns.
(ehm, yes, in the 2nd pattern I missed the first zero. )

thanks for the simple explanation!

other thing.... some meshes look like this , specifically head meshes.



I'm doing something wrong? (VB: 36)

here is the chunk model:

You did not take care of submeshes in face index list: 0x1D840, 0x1D8DC, 0x2269A etc..

glasses SM0:
0x1D840 78
VB1
36 32
0x0 28
0202

head SM1:
0x1D8DC 9951
VB1
36 32
0x3F0 2103
0202

startaddress of head to be calculated as addr[SM+1]= addr[SM]+28*36
SM is previous submesh, so addr[0]=0x0 here; addr[1]= 0 + 0x3F0

addr[2]= addr[1]+vertsCount[1] *36= 0x3F0 + 2103*36= 0x12BAC

thanks! all submeshes imported

Great work guys...
since the files aren't compressed, is it possible to get skeletal information as well?

[luxox18]

I found other head models where I can't define the VB block. (some head models use VB40)
the file structure looks a little bit different

here are some chunks:

note: ninja ripper extract head meshes with deformity but with HEX2OBJ I can export heads in perfect condition.

binds and skeletal structure are in different files but I don't know where are this files

Guys! Is it possible to get mesh using this method from NFS:Rivals since it's running on the same engine as BF4?
I posted a topic here with attachment: viewtopic.php?f=10&t=10997
I can't ripp 3d mesh from the game, only textures can be grabbed, I use Ninja ripper 1.1.4.
