Avengers Academy .ccz .c3b

Fixed. Late night. *shrug*

@TRDaz: A information post bumped back to page 3. Added if it helps you in animating asides from the nodes being retrievable (for weighting of course) a bit of research tells me these are almost identical in structure to Netimmerse files, near exact to the ones from the 2nd Freedom Force actually. The model files themselves contain 3d, node and texture pointer info. The core models contain a detailed model as well two LOD files each to control anims and boundries. The animation files contain no graphical information rather just animation sequence information to direct a models nodes very much like keyframe files. I'm working on the models but will try some experiments at a later date with all this.

- adding a little more reading back, those pesky texture files can be opened and converted with this program. It's GUI now. All you got to do is go under Tools > PVR Viewer and browse and open the file. Then in the Viewer save it as a different format.

I may have figured the vertex count but how they work this for both meshes is what's confusing me. 0x13A = 37,040. 37,040/16=2,315. That's the vertex count for the 2nd submesh, maybe they use this value for both meshes somehow. This seems to work with the other files provided too - the value after "VERTEX_ATTRIB_BLEND_INDEX".

Question since you know what your doing. I'm trying to learn the scripting process. From what I understand at least there is a way to change this count but not the how or why of it. I know the threshold if that is the right term is too low for this game. It doesn't account for certain meshes of a high poly count nor most of the map models which are larger. For example I have an exported ship in my 3d program right now. I only have the landing pads of the ship yet the outline of where the rest of the model is supposed to be is present in blank vertices. Thanks for any help in advance.

i can't help with noesis script, but if you want to import skinned models with Blender 249 , here is a blend.
Install Blender version 249 (32bits) and Python version 2.6.x (32 bits)
Unpack zip file and in "Blender249[AvengersAcademy][mobile][c3b][2018-02-19]" double click Blender249.blend.
In Blender Text Window press alt+p, select "*.c3b" file with "skin" inside filename and press "import".
Scale for models or armatures x=1.97 or 1/x.
You must manual parenting bones and meshes.

C3b file is split by section:
2-nodes - bones, bone maps for meshes
3-animations
16-materials
34-meshes

Bone format:
- bone name [ string ]
- unk flag [ 1 byte ]
- matrix4x4 [ 64 bytes as 16 floats ]
- unk integer [ 4 bytes as integer]
- children count [ 4 bytes as integer]

So for parenting use recursive function, like this:

Code: Select all

	def getChildren(parent):
		bone=Bone()
		bone.parentName=parent.name
		skeleton.boneList.append(bone)
		bone.name=g.word(g.i(1)[0])	
		a=g.B(1)
		bone.matrix=Matrix4x4(g.f(16))	
		b=g.i(1)[0]
		for m in safe(g.i(1)[0]):
			getChildren(bone)

If you want to play with animations, i can send a blend but i cant't solve a problem with object's scale.

Tight! Exact version of Blender I use, thank you much!

[SickAlice]

Tested all the above. Works like a charm. Outstanding work people, this is what makes this a good community. All that's left is to crack the map buildings and extents and everything is done.

here is Noesis python script to decompress on the fly and open the *.ccz textures

tex_MarvelAvengersAcademy_iOS_Android_ccz.zip

so no need to use the bms script here any more.
it should open Android *.pvr.ccz and iOS *.astc.ccz files, although i didn't have any *.astc.ccz samples to test it on.

Still working away on these and sharing them on Devart. Looking for data caches from the earlier V.1 games if anyone has them. I didn't start until right before V.2 myself and am missing a few files. Ty.

Hi, does anyone have a model of Viv Vision from this game? She hasn't appeared in any of the other Marvel games yet.

Hello, I use your blender script for Harry Potter - Hogwarts Mystery game and I have a problem for some .c3b files (not for all)
The error is :

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "starter.py", line 186, in Parser
    c3bParser(filename,g)
  File "starter.py", line 50, in c3bParser
    bone.matrix=Matrix4x4(g.f(16)).invert()
ValueError: matrix does not have an inverse

You can see your script work fine for this file : https://uptobox.com/nsra8swyyaqb
But not for this one : https://uptobox.com/fg6y8t1rp0vm

Other Error :

If you can help me by edit your script or tell me what I can do for make it work ! Thanks in advance

It's Mariusz' script and it's not as easy as you may think of. You need some decent understanding of the starter.py script (which may take weeks) or some intuitive proceeding.
You may or may not understand it from this patch which is only working for b_WeasleysHouse_Int_skin_v27.c3b:

Code: Select all

	for i in safe(sectionCount):
		sectionName=g.word(g.i(1)[0])
		unk,offset=g.i(2)
		back=g.tell()
		if i==0:
			offset=0x32A290;unk=16
		g.seek(offset)

Code: Select all

						bone.name=name
						#bone.matrix=Matrix4x4(g.f(16)).invert()
						bone.matrix=Matrix4x4(g.f(16))

.

Hello, thank you very much for your answer and your time.

I've some skill in python (but I never use python in blender or for 3D so I don't understand any particularities for see the problems)
So I will work for understand the script with your clues and for understand the MemoryError

Have a pleasant christmas and thanks again !

hello, I'm using the blender script to convert the .c3b file from the harry potter hogwarts mystery game, for now it seems its work correctly, but I have a problem, I wanted to use the same script to extract the animations (same .c3b extension). for what I know some people are using this script to successfully export them without problem, the same person who it say has extracted them correctly has tryed to helped me, but with no success.
if I'm correct he say to import the model and after this the animation and voilà, but everytime that I have tryed, nothing..
I have tryed many time and even changing something before trying again.. but really nothing, I even tryed on xp sp3..
in the console I can see a log update, when a model has imported, but with the animation I can only see the name and nothing.



maybe this doesn't mean anything.
has someone an idea on what I'm doing wrong?
I'm using blender 2.49b (x86), installed python 2.6.6 (x86) (and other 2.x.x to see if there are some improvements), win 8.1 pro (or win xp sp3) and this script "Blender249[AvengersAcademy][mobile][c3b][2018-02-19].zip" with the bone name long and uvflip modified.
thanks

edit:
I have solved it

[Maechen]

I have solved it

Hey, how did you manage to export the animations? I am really interested in your solution thanks in advance !
