Heroes and Generals model and texture(.CRN) formats

Portugalotaku · Post by **Portugalotaku** » Wed Jul 20, 2016 6:16 pm

I have been looking into extracting models from HoG, and since ninjaripper did not work, I have looked into the game files.
I have not yet figured out where the models are kept, and the game client is suspiciously small, but I have located the textures, which seem to in .crn format.
Now I do not know much about cracking texture formats. Actually, I do not know anything about it. So I thought to ask here, since someone might be able to help me.

Here is a sample:

Oh. I do not know how I missed that.
This is helpful, but there's still the issue of the models.

Here's a sample of a .bin file. Any clues how to open it?

So far, still no luck with rippers. Anyone got better luck with the file I posted?

the bin is zlib compressed, the first byte was a hint, use offzip to extract 00000000.dat from it

Code: Select all

offzip -a c5531570cd93ce62402a65fedcb2cde9.bin c:\offzip

then you can parse the mesh inside the dat, first submesh here

Oh nice! You think extracting models from those files is viable?

of course! you can use Hex2obj to get the meshes but would no doubt be easier with a script or tool

So how exactly do I open these files? Sorry, I just have no clue how to use this hex thingies.

And for some bizarre reason ninjaripper does not work for me in this game, so I cannot use that.

So can you tell me the hex2obj process you used on this mesh?

its all in the image, the offsets and counts and settings, you can start
learning it by using the same sample i did above, just dive in man!

It worked, but how do I do this on other models?

I mean it worked on that one model, but not any others.
