Well the STAGE folder are for INGAME so they dont REALLY need higher res models, you BEST bet is the DEMO folders, they hold the info for the CUTSCENES. Yes. That's where I looked. The DEMO folders all start with D WITHEN the stage folder, remember? You said it yourself in your FAQ: "Stage - m...

Thanks very much! OMG this really works!!! Hey, but I need to ask for further assistance (if you don't mind). Where can I find the HIGH RES Solid Snake model? Because even when I check in the Stage the D folders, Snake has a lower res model. It's usually called 'sna_def.kmy'. But I need the one wher...

Thanks very much for that Lionheart! Question for you though. You said you are exploring the models with 3D Studio Max right? So does that software support KMY or the OBJ files, or did you have a plug in that converts them? I'm asking because, I'm about to reinstall Maya for trying this, and then I ...

Hmmm.... This looks a tad confusing (no offense Turfster cause I really love Solidus! Err.... the program not the character! =P ) But yeah, it may be a handy idea Lionheart or Turfster to add the model export instructions (and all that is related) into a help file, so that people understand what wor...

So did you guys say the models are broken into pieces? Like, humans are broken into limbs or something? Is there any way to view a complete character? Are their textures attached, or you can load them up, onto the character?

What programs can I do this with? Will it work with Maya 5?

Well I am back, and excited to play around with this more. But I did find a problem with trying to create higher res textures now. Turfster, when you come back around, maybe you could answer this one for me? -I wish to be able to create HIGHER RES textures than what the game currently allows. this w...

Very useful info file Lionheart! You really explored well. Too bad I haven't had much time to, since getting ready for the trip I'm leaving for tomorrow. I will help in letting you know that the PAC folder contains all of the ingame MOVIES (not CUTSCENES), such as all of the TV monitor displays, all...

Cool! Thanks Mr. Mouse! Heh, it feels like the spotlight is on me too. XD I just didn't know when to quit. But Turfster did all the work, and I do appreciate that you were trying Mr Mouse! And lionheart pointed me back to this thread, when I was pretty sure it was a lost cause. I was so in awe that ...

Wow! We're really making progress here! This is sweet! Thanks Turfster! Yeah Lionheart, that bites, I want the characters too, but hey one step a time is how we are where we are now :wink: we'll get it sorted. That's interesting that the character files won't even open just cause of the animations f...

It is assumed everyone here owns a legal copy of any game they discuss. Discussing warez is against the rules and can be bannable on this forum. Please stop doing it. Aye-aye Captain, no worries here! Heh. A simple misunderstanding I'm sure, lionheart owns the game but his friend who borrowed it is...

Actually, I have more of a problem then I thought. I'm really stuck. :( I have now edited and tested 3 textures in the game but they don't show up. I did everything properly (and yes ofcourse I moved the edited .qar to where it belongs). The 3rd texture I tested was the exact same one that the Solid...

I hope at some point someone could even figure how to convert these models to the Maya format, cause thats the program I use. but if thats not possible, I'll find some solut...

Ok some news here. I have been having some trouble with this program, and I thought it was because I was testing the files straight off the DVD (still, it EXTRACTS them anyway), but now that the game is full installed again, and the same thing is happening, I'm wondering whats going on. Why does it ...

Nah I would NEVER give up on my beloved MGS! The PC version especially, I never gave up on it really, but when you search and search for answers on and off for years, and theres no hope in sight, instead of give up, you just let it come to rest until someone informs you of news. I did all I could do...
