I'm too interesting in meshes from this game, but anyway if you want progress you need to upload any samples, not the all people have this gameunlimited32 wrote:The only thing i have done so far is to extract the files and folders within these .packed files (from the PS3 version, there are 3, plus 2 which contains sound and music, from what i can see) with "quickbms". the .DDS files are readable and can open those, but nothing else

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - How to extract assets
is there any info on what different types of files are?
like:
.dds = textures?
.cm3 = animations?
.sm3 = models?
.mtl = materials?
.pxm = ?
.msh = meshes? etc...
The game files are not only compressed but encrypted as well?
Is there anything specific to be mindful of, like game engines (in this case the mercurysteam engine), in house software and tools, specific file formats and structure that isn't common for others outside? lack of time and knowledge sucks
What should i look for or where should i start (if i find some time)?
New edit: Well, it seems rather hard to get all of the assets, so if someone needs any files and samples (even from the game disc itself), just tell me. I'm using the PS3 version of Castlevania (BLES01047), with a total size of: 11.9 GB (12,846,831,036 bytes).
Thanks in advance.

I added the Mercury Steam .sm3 loader module to 3D Object Converter v4.427

I uploaded the converted Wavefront .obj/mtl files:

Re: CASTLEVANIA LORDS OF SHADOW "HOW TO EXTRACT MESHES"?
I've known your program for so many years and I think it's very-very good tool! But every time I turn to it I think to myself: WHY?? WHYYY THIS TOOL DOES NOT HAVE SUPPORT FOR BONES???Karpati wrote:Tosyk,
My program does not use the bone datas.
p.s.: I think implementing the bones support will be a great progress.
