What tools did you use to unpack the 'WAD's? QuickBMS, using scripts I've found on this forum. I repack WAD's using a python shell written specifically for this game. Some of these other files like NIF are graphics files which would need converting to read.. I have opened the NIF's with NifSkope an...

WRS wrote:These are "binary" xml files - xml files packed into data.

Is there any way I can open/edit these binaries properly?

I have a list of XML files that i want to edit from WADs I've extracted from the game called Wizard101 (GameBryo Engine if that helps). I believe these XML's contain the game code for their respective areas (example: extracting MB_Arena.wad gives me the textures, the model and these XML's). My only ...

Nope... zeroing out from 0x22C7 - 0x417A still caused a crash.. I have also opened the NIF in a hex editor and simply replaced one zeroed out block with the same zeros and saved the file for a test, and even that caused a crash in game! I'm almost sure it's something about the way these programs are...

Simply read what I wrote: zeroes from 0x22C7 to 0x417A

yay^

Sorry, I didn't know what blocks were. Not too much hex experience.

I'll try it and post results.

nope, I spoke of vertices, not names. The zipped nif is to big to be appended; just zero the nif out like such:[/quote]... (not good at quoting) That's what I did, but I only replaced the hex code referring to the railing (exactly what is highlighted in the original nif here) with zeros Are you say...

RESULTS:

I opened the NIF in a hex editor and have 0'd out all lines identifying the railing name; (if thats what you meant... if not can you do it so I can test?) still crashed. Same as editing the NIF in NifSkope. Should I try 3DS MAX? or any other suggestions?

[/quote] you could try to get the submeshes and "zero" their vertices in a hexeditor. (vertex block of displayed submesh from 0x22C7 - 0x417A)[/quote] I don't know much about NIFs... I've kinda done that using notepad, instead, changing the names of the submeshes so that they'd be unrecogn...

I'm trying to edit a .NIF with NifSkope; my goal is to remove a railing barrier so that I can walk onto the battle circle. I have deleted the block that highlights the railing in green (Catwalk_A_Railing_Posts03 [204]) although upon loading the area in game, the client crashes. Even without making a...
