I'm too interesting in meshes from this game, but anyway if you want progress you need to upload any samples, not the all people have this game

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - How to extract assets

Posted: Fri Oct 22, 2010 4:15 pm

is there any info on what different types of files are?

like:

.dds = textures?
.cm3 = animations?
.sm3 = models?
.mtl = materials?
.pxm = ?
.msh = meshes? etc...

The game files are not only compressed but encrypted as well?
Is there anything specific to be mindful of, like game engines (in this case the mercurysteam engine), in house software and tools, specific file formats and structure that isn't common for others outside? lack of time and knowledge sucks :(

What should i look for or where should i start (if i find some time)?

New edit: Well, it seems rather hard to get all of the assets, so if someone needs any files and samples (even from the game disc itself), just tell me. I'm using the PS3 version of Castlevania (BLES01047), with a total size of: 11.9 GB (12,846,831,036 bytes).

Thanks in advance.

I uploaded the converted Wavefront .obj/mtl files:

I've known your program for so many years and I think it's very-very good tool! But every time I turn to it I think to myself: WHY?? WHYYY THIS TOOL DOES NOT HAVE SUPPORT FOR BONES???

p.s.: I think implementing the bones support will be a great progress.
