[PC] Resident Evil 5

[chrrox]

no I mean its not a problem as in the game can load different sized files
also you could edit the cut scenes to load a different named model easily so if you had the extractor just add a 1 at the end or something.

hi there , i manage to actually render bones hierarchy + vertex points offseted to the bone position quite good not ?
next step is to render using triangles ( since i figured out the indices), uv coordinates are already ok and normals also, just need to rebuild triangles and load textures :p

Here is an updated version of the unpacker / repacker I made.
Features:
- unpack any re5 arc
- repack any re5 arc from a folder
- extract all re5 arcs with one click

Download ArcTool (rapidshare)
Download ArcTool (mirror)

Edit: This looks great shadowmoy, keep it up

Bonjour!!
this is the noArchive patch that will let you play the game with the files outside the archives. This is very useful for modders who want to make modifications to the Models/textures/animations without worrying about repacking the stuff.

The problem is, on the computer I tested the game, everything crashes after about 20 seconds of gameplay (no mods, no extractions, no patches, just the neat original game). This computer has the (somewhat) old ATI x1550 although the readme says this graphic card will run the game!! This is very frustrating since I only got to test some of the file extensions, for the others (extensions), the game didn't survive to load them (ask for them)

So I decided to patch the archives to the known file extensions only. That's what I got:
- sound files when patched don't seem to crash the game
- effect files when patched crash the game (by crash I mean the "Don't send message" after "press start" page)
- and most importantly: the textures when patched crash the game !!!!! I really don't understand!!!!
- for the rest of the known extensions, everything is ok (models/anims/messages..)

Now here's a list of all the extensions used by the game, these are the known ones

Anyways, below is the patcher that will work only for the extensions that didn't crash the game. There is also the UnPatcher: this will revert to original ARC status when you mess things up with the Patcher (happens sometimes)

As usual, just put the program in the naticePc directory and it will recursively scan the subfolders.

And since I don't think I'll continue the work on the patcher as I don't have any computer that can run the game properly, I'll post the source code here so people can make their own patchers.

Very nice, the patch will help reduce file sizes of downloads. However it makes the .arc repacker obsolete...
Well, we can assume that the patch won't work for everyone.

Ok guys here's the Mod2Obj converter, this is just the old Dmc4Model.exe, I only tweaked the scaling factors to get rid of the pancake effect. Other than that the program works perfectly on RE5, texture coords are ok, on object names you'll get a hint to what texture to use on that object. On stages the scaling is correct but the games scales them to x10 I think.
Still the skinning is missing, me and poly are struggling to figure out the bone offseting system and it's damn hard. The source code has already been posted in the DMC4 thread if you want to scratch the inside of you brain to help imporove stuff here and everybody is invited!!

[echelon]

Just awesome.

[Stars]

Hello friends, I'm new here and would like to ask you something, I'm very noob in these things editing games, etc ... But I ask one thing.
Capcom confirmed that it withdrew the coop splitscreen mode for PC, but said the code is the same as the 360, ps3 ... and still contends, that a hacker simply appear, copy the code and make a patch that someone will be able to this code to make a patch to add splitscreen mode in RE5 pc?

Sry my english.

Any possible way of making an OBJtoMOD converter?

[echelon]

Hey Surveyor could you give me some insight on the structure of the TEX header?
It doesn't seem to have a fixed length. I found the width and height and probably the mipmap count. But the header doesn't seem to be fixed length and I also can't find a length byte or a trailer. So simply don't know where it ends and where the data begins. Maybe you could give me a hint since you already wrote a converter? Thanks a lot!

edit: DXT1 TEX header mostly seems to be 0x48, 0x50, 0x54 bytes long. DXT5 is often a bit longer... I really don't get it. o_O

offsetting is quite easy :

you have the bbox so :

here is how to do it in fbsl :

Code: Select all

'//calculate height, width and depth of the model by it's bbox values
Dim !h, !w, !l


w = Abs(header.BBoxMin.x) + Abs(header.BBoxMax.x)
h = Abs(header.BBoxMin.y) + Abs(header.BBoxMax.y)
l = Abs(header.BBoxMin.z) + Abs(header.BBoxMax.z)
'//then divide all vertex by 32767 and multiply by respective size and offset the pos
For i = 0 To header.vertexcount - 1
	vertexf[i].x = !(vertex[i].vert[0] / !32767 * w) - w / 2
	vertexf[i].y = (!vertex[i].vert[1] / !32767 * h)
	vertexf[i].z = (!vertex[i].vert[2] / !32767 * l) - l / 2 + header.BSphere.z
Next

Does anyone get what I asked?

THX

[shadowmoy]

not possible, on pc version you have online mode but the splitscreen version have been removed certainly from the engine, in counterpart they have add more content , better graphics , models, etc.. to the pc version

[Stars]

Yes, it was removed, but the very capcom said simply copy the code splitscreen on consoles and applies it in the pc version.

[ResiHax]

Surveyor, would you be willing to work on a OBJ to MOD converter for DMC4 & RE5, or release the source code for your MOD2OBJ, it should be easy enough, just kinda reverse the process... I think...
