Hello friends.

I have little to zero knowledge of Havok stuff but I was wondering if someone could take a look at these files from WWE2K19 for me. I don't know if this is the same type of havok stuff this plugin is for so let me know, I just know that if I rename them HKT and import to Noesis i get invalid tag errors, so it reads some of it.

All I know is that these files are hitboxes for the prop they're included with. I've attached a few samples. Let me know .

I think I'm gonna need to focus on Noesis as well. It uses like the first version of library or something...

EDIT:
Noesis will have to wait until or even when x64 support is released.

Hey there!
I love the work you did on the Havok-animation format!
Backyard Wrestling - Don't Try This at Home uses this physic engine aswell. However, the only script available for the games main archive just seperates the extracting files in meshes and data.
All Data-Files here: https://we.tl/t-EdnyhkDSLI

Your plugin sadly does not recognize any of these files...or shows em in the noesis file-tree when trying to access the folder.
Can you tell me which files are havok animation files? There must be a way to find out right?
Alot of the files just contain textures and sounds. See more about that in my thread here: viewtopic.php?t=19370

Id love to have some of the finishing moves available for some blender project!
Appreciate your work on this man!

This title uses only a physics module.
There aren't any Havok files to begin with.
A lot of games are using physics module, but only for simulations.
Animations must be a custom format.

Can anyone provide a Havok file that contains a hkaDelta Compressed Animation in a format that can be read by this plugin?
Delta Compressed Animation, such as version 6.0, probably has a different format. Unable to load with HavokTool 2014.That is, this plugin will not work either.
However, HavokTool2010 can read it and convert it to xml. may be able to compare the xml that works in 2014 with the xml that works in 2010 and earlier, and fix it if it's just a tag format difference.

Data check from FFXIV, Gunslinger Stratos, and Dungeons and Dragons Online gave us a better understanding of the structure of Havok xml.
Most of all, it's only in terms of formatting, no knowledge of reverse...

Delta Compressed Animation was removed since 2011.
What you can do, is to load it in 3ds max and export it back (it will be exported as interleaved, so you can apply spline compression in tool)

Hello, thank you [roll] is it possible to import the animation without it changing the bone lenght of original skeleton ?
I'd like to import animations without it changing bone lenght/scaling.

Hey.
packedragdoll files are custom format, each of them have 4 embedded havok files. None of them loads.
packedskeleton files are custom format, no havok files inside
animset files are custom format, they use one embedded havok file. Doesn't load.
Unless there isn't any extractor for those, you gonna need to trim them by hand
Tosyk wrote: Thu Nov 26, 2020 3:50 pm 2. Mafia 3. Same crashes
skeletons.bin is a custom format, it includes one large havok file with all skeletons. Version is not supported and it does some weird shit that needs to be looked at. It also includes 3 more smaller files with physics or something.
basic_anim.bin is same format as skeletons.bin. It contains single file with all animations. Again, version is not supported and extracted file doesn't load, because of version and custom stuff.

Did you know there is a dedicated control in UI that shows when you import stuff? The dialog that shows is much smaller than the main window. In that dialog are many things that you can do. There are two large buttons at the bottom, where you can confirm import or cancel import. If you look at the top of that small dialog, you will see a text that saysScale, right next to it is a control where you can set your scale value.

In case, you're lost, I've added a screenshot.
The import dialog I was writing about is highlighted within green rectangle.
The scale control is highlighted within red rectangle.

If you need more help, let me know :keke: :wink:
