Thanks, it's interesting to consider. I like the effects it has on several materials, but found one that it doesn't agree with; there is an important pattern on Aruni's shirt that's defined entirely by the specular, which gets cancelled out. Hmm, I'll continue to be uncertain as well.
I don't think those are visible in-game at all, at least I don't recall seeing those on Aruni's model anywhere else but her artwork, I wouldn't be surprised if even the guys at Ubi don't know how their materials work, a few models are using outdated textures, those are COMPLETELY broken in-game..Custard wrote: ↑Thu Feb 11, 2021 3:06 am Thanks, it's interesting to consider.

Ah, you're right. I checked the appearance in the game menu, and the right example with G as glossiness looks more correct to that, the pattern is nearly invisible. Maybe we are putting more thought into their materials than they do.floxay wrote: ↑Wed Feb 17, 2021 12:37 am I don't think those are visible in-game at all, at least I don't recall seeing those on Aruni's model anywhere else but her artwork, I wouldn't be surprised if even the guys at Ubi don't know how their materials work, a few models are using outdated textures, those are COMPLETELY broken in-game..
We are using some loose python code and some supporting applications to do it, the link is in Tushkan's signature with instructions.
What's aruni's uuid?Custard wrote: ↑Fri Jan 15, 2021 6:15 amSetup and ran this method now on half dozen forges, it only reports back the single UID. I'm out of ideas for that.Tushkan wrote: ↑Wed Jan 13, 2021 3:17 pm Try not to check for that specific magic, but rather collect all possible magics. Create a set() and add to it all magics you find.

I have been putting together Aruni, since I found her whole on basically the first time I searched (I've been saving a list of UIDs to share, but it's just two things right now). I've been pondering on the textures, I got the impression the blue channel is an AO texture and came up with what you can see below, using it in sRGB color space on purpose. That's before I thought to looked at Tushkan's shader. My confidence is not 100% on this. However in defense of it, I was comparing to the in-game character to see if I was getting similar reflectivity, and that brushed metal around Aruni's knee is very shiny and metallic in-game, and this is one of the few uses that preserves that. Using the blue channel as some sort of roughness seems to conflict with that, using it as a glossiness seems to make everything too shiny.
Edit: Btw Jake, about the diffuse textures, they can have slight areas of transparency which can can cause discoloration. If you aren't expecting that it can cause you headaches when it happens, making us thinking the shader is wrong or the lighting is wrong instead. It seems to be related to their subsurf, I haven't worked out that yet.
I'm pretty sure it checks the other forges. The workflow seems to beseraphiel71 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 18, 2021 7:07 pm Hello, any advice on exporting textures. I managed to get the meshes for the dokkaebi elite skin except the eyes. How do i go on about making it search in different forges? I tried to change the name of
forge_name = 'datapc64_merged_bnk_textures3.forge'
to like
forge_name = 'datapc64_merged_bnk_textures2.forge'
didn't really work. I also increased the stop to stop=10000 to get more textures.
Also tried changing the value of tex.tex_type != 0. still doesn't seem to work. Have read the notepad of the .pys multiple times and can't seem to crack a way to get her textures. I was only able to get 1 basic diffuse by just running the default roam_textures.py.
Happened to me too, It also took an unusually long time to run, compared to other models. I think it might have been trying to export just too much data and it ran out of memory in the buffer or somethinggep55 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 19, 2021 8:31 pm Just tried to Unpack Iana using this (241085404837) ID and got this error message.

Also, many items were 'unresolved' during extraction.
It exports a lot of headgears and other skins for Iana as well not just the default ones that's why it takes so long.
thank you for the reply, means a lot
