The Bouncer (PS2)

[chrrox]

Here is a bms to extract the bin files from this game.
website http://na.square-enix.com/games/bouncer/

Code: Select all

get files long
get ftbl long
set filetable 0x800
set filebase 0x800
savepos offtable
for i = 0 < files
goto offtable
get offset long
math offset * 0x800
savepos offtable
get size long
math size * 0x800
goto filetable
get nameoff long
savepos filetable
math nameoff + filebase
goto nameoff
get name string
if size == 0
get size asize
endif
math size - offset
log name offset size
next i

I'm very interested for extract 3D models from this game

[shadowmoy]

easy format

Hm, looks like you might be missing a scale and/or bias, unless your image's aspect ratio is just messed up, or I'm totally misremembering what those assets looked like. I haven't actually looked at this format at all, but it's on my long-term to-look-at list. (The Bouncer was my first PS2 game, so I added it to the list on a complete whim)

[shadowmoy]

yup you are right ,there may be a bounding box or else to rescale the mesh correctly i already have seen such system in resident evil 5 , also the mesh format is quite simple , it is really like the Appleseed ex machina ps2 one (for info), the only differences are some header differences here and there + the vertex def storage that match it

[shadowmoy]

finished texture format , fixed mesh aspect ratio using bounding box info, the only missing infos are the grouping (if there is) and the texture id to use on each group that i can't actually find
the mesh are in *.fe files (95% done)
the skeleton in *.sk files (not yet worked on it but look simple)
the textures in *.tex that is a binary container (format also reversed)

[grotesque]

WOW!!!!
shadowmoy I hope you can fix the skeleton and release a tool (maybe with md5 support )

[MadReaper]

good code , but a guide for the extractet bin files would be nice.

I must say, this is an excellent game, and still is.

This game is now supported by the new Noesis, with recursive .bin unpacking, and viewing of textures and models, with full skeleton+weights. Also, the very high-poly (for the time, ~1300 triangles just in the face was quite a lot) models are the same format. Take a look.

However, these files are in compressed .bin files. I still haven't figured out the compression method. The files are loaded in memory with headers and all, though, so I was able to just direct-dump them from PCSX2 by memory dumping during an in-game cutscene, then view the dump in Noesis.

Here is the loader code for shadowmoy and anyone else interested: http://pastebin.com/Bz6L393D

Sorry to bump this thread from the limbo, but how did you exactly dumped the memory in order to extract the Hig polycount models?

Thanks.
