Deus Ex Mankind Divided

Deus Ex Mankind Divided tools (models+cloth+hairs)

Both tools are made to work with files made by Sir Kane's extractor (renamed or not).

1. Model/cloth tool - DXMDmodel.exe

- for models, select 2 corresponding files (PRIM & BORG) and drop them onto the tool - it will make ASCII & SMD model. Both will have skeleton, but as usual, ASCII will hold all UV pairs.

- for cloth, drop APEX file onto the tool - it will make ASCII cloth with skeleton. This skeleton will be compatible with main model, but no proper bone rotations, so load main model first, and then append cloth to it.

2. PureHair tool - PureHair.exe (will also work with Tomb Raider)

Drop PHHA hair file (the biggest of 3) onto the tool - it will make ASCII & OBJ files with hair. OBJ will have edges (lines). You can build mesh of desired thickness from it. ASCII will have simple triangles built on same vertices. Its very thin, and can be improved later (if i will have time). The real game builds 2 triangles for each vertex, so it works as intended.

Hair will have submeshes:

Both main model & cloth are weighted to the skeketon:

Sir Kane's unpacker makes a text file with the names of all the files, NameMap.txt. However none of the names in this file even contain the word "Borg". So i'm a bit confused where we find the 'borg' files.

Edit: I figured out the answer.

This is by the internal file tag, which is stored backward. So you'll have to hexedit each file to figure out which are the right ones to use.

unfortunately i've never seen files made with that unpacker ;)

but after renaming there are 2 files with the word "weightedprim" for each skeletal model
these 2 files (inside of the engine) have types BORG (bone/rig) & PRIM (primitive)

p.s. you dont have to hexedit them, because it doesn't matter in which order you use them with the tool

I found an issue with the model unpacker. On the character "Ivan Berk" (\characters\resources\secondary_characters\ivan\ivan.wl2_) The BORG/PRIM model.

It's not decoding right, you can see many vaules in the Ascii file and SMD file are unusually large:
ASCII:

SMD:

The APEX and hair work fine, and everything has worked fine for other characters so far, so must be something special about this one character.

Oh also seems APEX UVs are flipped from what the textures are:

not hard to fix in blender but FYI

I really can't thank you enough for the PureHair tool - it's so great to finally have the beautiful hair from RotTR!

It seems I've found one more problem with the exporter.

there are some accessories that won't export anything, it just produces a 0 byte file. for example:

characters\resources\kit_systems\male\prague_police\prag_police_accessories\prag_police_helmet_a.wl2_
characters\resources\kit_systems\male\prague_police\prag_police_accessories\prag_police_helmet_a_opened.wl2_


Also here are some views of finished models from the tool, thanks for all your efforts. :)

these are probably static models, and this tool is only made for skeletals, which have BORG file.

yeah it seems they don't have BORG. I guess i'll see if i can hack my old importer to do them, I need the helmet to complete the police character :D

Edit: actually it worked with no modification. yay!

don't import .bin in blender, why do you need that?
