Age of Pirates: Caribbean Tales (Корсары 3) - *.gm models

[Tosyk]

Help me to convert *.gm models into 3ds max with bones and weights.

I started to researches and wrote script:

Code: Select all

f = fopen "l:\\features\\maxscript\\korsary-2-pc\\dep0.gm" "rb"
clearlistener()

fn ReadFixedString bstream fixedLen =
(
   local str = ""
   for i = 1 to fixedLen do
   (
      str0 = ReadByte bstream #unsigned
      if str0!=0xFD AND str0!=0xFC do str+= bit.intAsChar str0
   )
   str
)

Face_array=#()
Vert_array=#()
UV_array=#()

fseek f 0x38BE #seek_set --probably vertexes count start (2172)
vertCount=readshort f #unsigned
print vertCount
skiper=ReadFixedString f 0x7

for x = 1 to vertCount do(

p0=readfloat f
p1=readfloat f
p2=readfloat f
p3=readfloat f
p4=readfloat f
p5=readfloat f
p6=readfloat f
p7=readfloat f
p8=readfloat f -- skiper, looks like "7F 7F 7F FF"
p9=readfloat f
p10=readfloat f
append Vert_array[0,0,0]
append UV_array[0,0,0]
)

fseek f 0x3BC #seek_set --probably polygon count start (2250)

polyCount=readlong f #unsigned
print polyCount
polySkiper=ReadFixedString f 0x40

for x = 1 to polyCount/3 do(
fa=readshort f #unsigned+1
fb=readshort f #unsigned+1
fc=readshort f #unsigned+1
append Face_array[fc,fb,fa]
)

msh = mesh vertices:Vert_array faces:Face_array
msh.numTVerts = UV_array.count
buildTVFaces msh
msh.name="dep"

Print ("Last Read @ 0x"+((bit.intAsHex(ftell f))as string))
gc()
fclose f

As you can see i read count of vertexes in 0x38BE values (i read it in 2 bytes) and get 2171 (actually i now that model have 2172 vertexes). Then skipping 0x7 length values and start reading pattern of vertexes from 0x38C8 until the end.
Count of polygons i reading from 0x3BC (read in 4 bytes and also knows that model have 2250 polygons), then skipping 0x40 length values and start reading polygon pattern from 0x400.

But i can't get a model into max. Someone correct me.

p.s. also i this file don't have weights, or it have?

Hey Tosyk
Mayby this help you to writing script for max.
It is a python script for Blender249.

Gm files have no bones data.

oh, i'm appreciated Szkaradek123, i will try to understand python script right now, and also i need find bone-files some where
