Problems in extracting wii files.

Post by phlyingpig » Wed Oct 20, 2010 8:04 pm

These are some files I'm trying to extract.
I have read the QUICKBMS GUIDE but still can't find the rules of the .arc files.
The path name in the header is clear but I have no idea of the other fields.

Could anybody give some advice of extracting?

And there is no filename extension in the path. How could I know the format of the models?

Thank you so much for your help.
Have been troubled for a few weeks since the game released.

Now I'm trying to convert it to some format that 3ds can open.
Is there any rules in this kind of files or tools to convert?

I do not plan to support wii models unless they are the same format.

what does the format relate to?
the platform? or the company which made the game?

ummmmm....
I have seen the models of wii games you have posted on another forum. So I think maybe there is some experience you could share.

This is a wii/ps3 game. Does it mean anything?

yes, they are brmdl, so they can be easily extracted with different tools, but Wii models have a lower quality than the ps3 ones.

The brres viewer for wii is perfect now but I couldnt find any tools to view the models in ps3 games.

the directory tree of the both edition are the same and i can extract the ps3 files with the same script but i cant view the models. Is there any tools released at present to view ps3 models?
