Hi,
here's the files of one of cars from GT4. In my opinion .car file is 3d model and .pat file is texture.
Someone know how to rip these files?

http://www.4shared.com/rar/j-GKqDFx/pk156.html or http://www.uploadmb.com/dw.php?id=1383728549

1. Extraction tool for GT3/GT4.vol = extract compressed files of cars (pk0156 etc):
GT3FSExtract: http://www.4shared.com/zip/BP5EV8np/GT3FSExtract.html or http://www.uploadmb.com/dw.php?id=1383728470
GT3vol: http://www.4shared.com/zip/OalSltb2/gt3vol.html or http://www.uploadmb.com/dw.php?id=1383728411

2. Extraction tool for compressed car files (like pk0156) = it gives you files .car and .pat etc.:
OFFZIP: http://www.4shared.com/zip/o4BqbvQt/offzip.html or http://www.uploadmb.com/dw.php?id=1383728504

3. And one man do that quickBMS script (export .car to .3ds format), but it not work's for me correctly:
GT4 BMS script: http://www.4shared.com/file/PC6_hmgf/GT ... to3ds.html or http://www.uploadmb.com/dw.php?id=1383728591


And original (compressed) car files form GT4.vol
GT4 car files: PM only

Is there a way to download from 4shared other than using facebook/twitter/google+?

For facebook it says: "4shared gets the following infos: your profil, email address etc."

That's not funny, imho.
On 'cancel' it redirects me back to 4shared trying to connect to twitter or something else.
So sorry, can't help you.

Oh, sorry. I have account (free) on this site.
On 4shared is possible to create account without using social networks.
Click on Sign up under social networks buttons (in pop-up menu), or on the header of site is Sign Up.

But If you have upload server without Signing up, i can reupload files.

I use http://www.uploadmb.com/ for example.

(Disadvantage is that files are erased after 30 days without a download.)

Thx.
Extraction tool for extracted car files (like pk0156):
What does that mean?
Does it mean offzip to be used on pk0156? If so could you post the command line, please?

So 0001d008.car is one of the extracted files? There's some floats (IEEE754 format, 4 bytes) but I don't see face indices so far.

From 0x49F80 seems to be some texture data: Image

Command line in CMD like this:
G:\offzip\offzip.exe -a -z -15 G:\GT4\cars\pk0156 G:\GT4\cars -0

thx! (not seeing -z is a "sub option" only so I forgot the main option -a :roll: )

Anyway the prob with the face indices remains.
It could help if you had another small *.car file. Or another object, since the uncompressed size should be <100 kB if possible.

edit: your last uploaded file is too big to download for me. Just as a hint: it also might violate forum rules.
If so maybe better delete it before the whole post is. :)

Found some useful information here.
Looks very promising, but sample model has many intersected polygons inside.

I did everything by theese instructions,but got only 3 panels(literally,3 flat faces) and absolutely messed up wheel.


Of course,you can hardly rip cars from GTPSP,they are the same,sometimes even a little better,But GT3 and GT4 has some great cars like nike one or Auto union,Ford T...

Also,extracting tracks would be amazing too,they are very detailed and unique

As a proof,here are the cars i extracted from GTPSP

But cars have some serious problems...

For some reason(I think because of PlayStation Platform):
1)textures don't have actual alpha layers
2)UV's are sometimes absolutely strange and not right...
3)No Normals with my ripping method
4)thousands of parts with my method

Also,I can't rip tracks by my method...

So please,can anyone help to decrypt original game files to rip meshes and extract textures...automatically :roll:
That would be absolutely amazing!

:)

...didn't want to start a new thread, just wondering if it is possible to get track models?
Was looking at the SS Route 11, would like to get my hands on it... thanks
