but i couldn't find out any thread in the perspective of Tigerwoods PGA Tour series
im not a programer i just design 3d art and game modding which is graphics
i need help you guys especially have experienced guys in EA Sports game's 3d model
i'd like to give every informations to here about Tiger woods game and 3d models and graphics
which i can do everything
Curently TW2008 is the newest title, but basicly there is no different form earlier titles (2007and 2006) they are uses same 3d and texture format
so i think it could not complex in the numbers of file types
ok then i'd like to give links in the perspective of Tigerwoods PGA Tour for your researching
- you can get TW2008 demo if u need test and digging the game files and dlls
http://www.blasteroids.com/games/file_d ... ga_tour_08
http://www.fileplanet.com/181743/180000 ... A-Tour-08- (need a account)
- there is an official level editor from EA to make 3d environment of golf course
and they support tools to converting texture and Geometry models for level editor
if u needs some reference about Geometry model file you can get static model exporter(max script) for 3dsmax
http://www.jimbo64.com/tutorials/Intro_to_max.html ( the thrid link in there you can get Max and Gmax export scripts )
ok then i tell you about TW2008 file structure in the perspective 3d model and animations
i looked around of files i figured out a little bit about character model and animations
The game files aren't archived no compressed. the character models and animations in
- Data\Golfers\ there are 3 directoires "charcsd" "CHARS" "CHARTEX"
i think "CHARS" is put the models and animations, "CHARTEX" is put the Textures for models
but im not sure i just suppose like that
In CHARS directory,
there are .xbx files i think this .xbx file is model and animations achive file
which is compressed
thre are numbers of characters and motins and other stuffs
In CHARTEX directory,
there are .fxx files and i think this file has compressed
and im not sure about charcsd directory what is types for the game character
I could tell the informations so far about TW2008
i linked sameple files for your reseach

I hope that i could put new golfers as The celebrity and non-human characters
and change golf club as the base ball bat or the broomstick and many other funny stuffs
if could make then would be funny
if someone take this research i'll thanks a lot, you guys could not makes work though
thanks
