JFK Reloaded .WAD Files

[marvo]

Hello, for about 2 years now i have been trying to rip the Meshes and Textures from JFK Reloaded. A old game from 2004 that simulates the assassination of 35th US President John Fitzgerald Kennedy. I am mainly looking for the SS-100-XX mesh, and the character meshes. I don't understand Hex Editing, and i have tried countless programs that support the .WAD file format and none of them have succeeded. I really have no idea what the issue is. NinjaRipper is able to rip the character meshes and textures, but they come out with polygons missing and unintelligible UV-Mapping. I unfortunately cannot upload a sample for experimentation, i have to upload the whole .WAD file. I understand if this post gets taken down, and i greatly apologize for any inconvenience i may have caused.

EDIT: I forgot to mention, i think this game runs on Renderware or something? I'm unsure, but by reading the core000.wad file in Notepad, i notice a lot of references to .anm, .txd, and .mdl files. And .mtl files too, which i think is associated with Renderware? I don't really know.

There are some topics already with discussion of WAD file format, so you can check them first

As for the engine, it's not RenderWare for sure, it seems to be modified Carmaggedon engine (BRender).

I may have a look at this archive later.

I was able to create quickbms script for extracting all files from the WAD archive

I have also created this article for future reference
