Pokemon Battle Revolution *.fsys files?

Here are some sample files:

EDIT: found this BMS script, but not sure if complete:

I found this code snippet, but I'm not sure what language it is, or if it's just pseudocode, and how complete it is,

Why this game? Well it has the most models and probably best looking (around 500 + characters with bunch of customizations). Maybe the models are in some known format used by other games too, but if not, figuring out the archives is still a huge step.

So far, the only way to get them is Dolphin Emulator and 3D Ripper DX. I haven't seen any way to get models from .fsys files yet.

Also, posting samples is now against the rules, so you might delete the link.

I know that. I should have been more clear, sorry. However, if 3dripper was that great the forum admins could just close down the 3d section completely. It's not an alternative solution. And this topic is about fsys archive files, models is not the only thing we can be interested in.

Also, posting samples is now against the rules, so you might delete the link.

Well then pm me for samples.

However that new rule will greatly decrease the productivity around here. To any mod reading this: have you guys actually contacted a legal counsellor about this?

Fair use or the similar term "fair dealing" exists in US, some commonwealth countries and some CIS countries (haven't looked up all of them) allow use of part of copyrighted material for reasons such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research in their acts dealing with intellectual property.
