So, has there been any progress on anyone's tools? Or is this thread just dead? Well, my point of view is this: the code that I shared should be used as a reference on how the data is structured/parsed. I never intended to write an exporter for game data to any meaningful format. The exception you ...

super cool! BUuuUuUT how much will you charge for a model exporter with UV and textures? Dying for OBJs with textures. i wouldn't dare to charge a single dime :) i started working on an exporter for the 360 game data a while ago, but this costs time and i have not very much of that currently. but i...

new version: http://www.mediafire.com/file/ygjx2w93d ... mv-0.2.exe

some fixes, and now needs only .net framework 2.0 (the other needed 4.0).

so here's my map viewer: http://www.mediafire.com/file/js5j37v9c ... mv-0.1.exe

very unpolished and somewhat ... ugly: no textures, no effects. i did not even use the real geometry but misused collision detection data.
well anyway, that's it for me and dark souls hacking.

ok, are you using the ps3 or 360 version? there is a difference; i wrote the code for the 360 version as these discs are easier to rip. i don't know about noesis but the tpf's are mostly just dxt-encoded textures. a texture with type 0x0000 is a dxt1 compressed tiled ARGB texture in big endian forma...

some pics from my dark souls map: http://imgur.com/a/2nZTo i ended up using the collision detection data for rendering because its less data; so no textures 'n stuff. instead i color-coded the areas. the world is pretty much consistent geographically, except catacombs and tomb of the giants do not f...

lighting with and without bump mapping: http://imgur.com/a/DlKtg

are you able to get the normal and other maps assigned too? I think there is a texture, normal map and reflection map on the models. normals per vertex yes, bumpmaps no. not yet anyway. there are a lot of possible ways to implement bumpmapping ... so may be some time to figure out how it's done her...

(edit: fixed imgur upload)

here are some of the sets: http://imgur.com/a/2iElC

you were right, i uploaded a picture from a low-res mesh.

edit: i mean, the pic from BEFORE was low-res, THIS attached one should have proper resolution

Azraille wrote:not just that but the models themselves seem really low rez, almost as if you got a LOD version

hm, you are probably right, i will check that.

Though it seems to me at least that it looks terribly different to the in game model for whatever reason you mean color-wise? well, that's because shading in my application is not perfect. to make it look like it's rendered in-game you'd need proper lighting, mix in second diffuse texture, bump-map...

here the helm piece again:

well sort of. the helm piece in the picture looks a little bit damaged. that makes me think i do not understand the mesh data completely. maybe the models need real skinning to look ok.
