Makes sense. I can elaborate a little on that. Each 'Sxxy' directory contains all the assets for a given 'stage' in the game. Generally this is an entire section of map, one floor of a building and all the rooms that connect to it. All the textures for this map, all the models in it, the collision m...

I'm going to say no, no bsp. There is no bsp-like data in the models themselves. They are straight quads and indices as can be seen here

There is this information. There is also this tool for PS1 sound listening. Open a DAT file and scan it. Seems like DEMO and STAGE have all the stuff in them. (EDIT) I just whipped this up. MGSDIRTool Looking at the "DIR"s in the STAGE.DIR file, it seems like it uses hardcoded PSX memory a...

Ps1 stage.dir is known. I'll look into it when I'm at my computer.

This is an excellent reference of x86 opcodes and their associated details. [edit] I remembered what else I was going to say... Check low for hanging fruit. Look at the strings in the program in your debugger and where they're used. If you have already inferred what file has the data you're looking...

Check this. It's sort of a mess but it for sure works. It's based on Puyo Tools. https://github.com/neko68k/rtftool/blob ... p6t_v2.cpp

Cytus 4.5 MP3 rip and ripper tool source. I see no reason this tool wouldn't work on other Unity games. YMMV.

I'd recommend learning C, then C++. C++ will seem less esoteric if you already know C. I'd also recommend choosing whatever scripting language you like; I recommend Python, Ruby, or LUA. Personally I use Python and C primarily. It may also be beneficial to learn the scripting language first, they te...

@aap yes, these should be working on a properly modified ps2 with a burned disc of your own creation. see my previous youtube link. I just tested the procedure with one of the examples that didn't work just running the ELF in PCSX2. Before it gave me the memory card screen from the BIOS. Now it give...

You can make ps2 iso's with CD/DVD-ROM Generator and iml2iso. I dont have them handy, sorry. It works something like this. http://youtu.be/KzS88okFJSU?t=6m13s

see if theres any obvious data after the Basemap block, like a TIF header, and do some quick math to see if you can find the offsets. That'd be helpful if it makes sense... Like find one, see how long it is and see if you can find that difference in the Basemap block(sub the 2nd pointer from the 1st...

Those look like 32-bit pointers. I'm not as familiar with PS2, but on PSX memory is mapped to start at 0x80000000 and I'd guess the PS2 is the same(same CPU architecture). It's not unusual to store direct memory offsets in a file that you know you will be loading into a specific place in RAM every t...

MGS PC PCX textures have extra data in an otherwise unused part of the header that contain vram coordinates for the image and its palette(s). This data must be preserved. You also may not change the bpp(8 or 4 bpp) or the dimensions of a texture without changing _all_ of the textures. This is due to...

I use Hex Workshop

Because you hand ripped them there isn't really anything I can do, sorry. Is there a particular texture that you were looking for, I could maybe help with that.
