I vaguely remember that it is possible to calculate the vertices for the sub-meshes start adresses? I believe thats what I have to do here. Any leads on that ?

yeah, cool! :D
For uvs you'll need to switch to HF_all, though. (So it's a little caveat to replace the vt lines in the .obj from the previous run.)

Yeah really awesome what your little tool can do :D - Thank you for the support again!
When I worked on Sniper Elite 4 models I found a quick way to transfer the UVs in Blender. I found that easier than doing it by text files;)

There's a tutorial contained in hex2obj (press 'tut' button).

Hi
Is there a way anyone could help me extract the model from the file I attached? I've been fooling with this for 3 days (looking at tuts and all)
The file was zlib compressed but I decompressed it and it has a proper start to the face indices now (000001002)


I finally figured things out and even found the uvs (vertex block of 24/position of 20)
Do I need to combine the model.obj and the uv.obj so that in blender it has its correct uv view?

Thanks

Use File/SaveAs mesh to get the combined model (vertices and uvs) as a wavefront.obj file.

H2O file, which you may have created already:

0x1462 1106
Vb1
24 20
0x22 216
020100
0x0 255

No, I used hex2obj, as usual. :D
But MR should do, too.

Hello Everyone, so I ripped a raw XNB file from a game called The 1$ Zombie Game, I tried to do it for myself and I couldn't do it, can someone rip it for OBJ and send it to me? (By the way, I will send the ripped raw file from that game, it's a SWAT model by the way and I also ripped the textures for it) here is the ripped raw that I used on Quickbms: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AwEHVS ... share_link
I'm just a Source Modder guy around the internet finding a way to rip old xbox 360 indie games models, if you want to help me out, reach out to me privately. I can also accept hex2obj rips too.
