Hmm, each file seems to have slightly different offsets, i wonder if finding a common offset for each part might be worth a try?

well after repeated attempts, ive come up short... i know that the different sectors of the file are in roughly the same place, but i cant seem to find a common offset, can someone please tell me if the python script allows for multiple offsets or if theres a way to set it up to use a common offset?

Here is a script that will convert the meshes from the .VBIN, and .BIN files (You can save time by running the script on the entire decompressed zipped file, so that the script converts all the meshes at once)
Here is an example of a character mesh (some type of car):

Thx for the new script, the version of this i had only did level geometry, now if only we could convert the ITF files....
I've done some tests and they really need to adjust that script so that it gets the models in t-pose and doesnt split it into seperate .3ds files which all default to pos 0, 0, 0.

Re: [REQUEST] Transformers 2004 .VBIN and . ITF (PS2)
Posted: Mon Feb 19, 2018 7:32 pm
Anyone got the other bms for extract the main bin files. Ty. Also not convert persay but you can get at the textures using Textool fairly easy then apply them to the converted models all the same.

i remember posting this here before but here is link to the link
viewtopic.php?p=127912#p127912
if you post more samples i might could make a Noesis python script to automate the process.

Another method is the Texmod way. That way you can select and see exactly what textures go where and it automatically converts them to more flexible format.

oh nice, I still have the ENTIRE disc extractedif you need ITF samples I can make you a package of em, also, any chance of combining it with whats in the BMS script earlier in the thread to make it so Noesis can view the models with the textures?

Say it before and will again this is such an awesome community, people behave the way community members should and with equal mindfulness. TY to anyone who has and will help me with requests. Side note someone should try and put together a depot of the lost files from the PS2 site. I dunno about anyone else but it was sudden on my end, I was on the site then went on a vacation trip and came back to the empty stub bookmark. There were way too many useful things there to lose spontaneously.

ok I have a full file repo .zip for this game set up if anyone wants to take a better look at the formats and maybe write a plugin, ill post the link here, however, if this post does get chopped by the mod axe, please send me a PM for the link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=124xZq ... 7cLNiv3rrC

Hi guys, new member here, and slight bump to the thread!
Editing my previous post, I've been able to use Console Texture Explorer to recreate a good chunk of the background files from the retail game and a recently uncovered early version, which are stored as ITF Texture files.
There's a few that I'm stuck on, and it'd be great to get a better understanding of how CTE actually reads the files for reconstruction.
So, using file size as a starting point, I recognise that I can't recreate data outside of the file size limit, instead using the Graphics Offset to make up the limit, as well altering the BPP. All the files so far have fallen under Palette Offset of 60, as noted earlier in the thread. There's two file sets so far that seem to be exceptions to the rule.
The First has a file size of 786492, which using CTE, seems to be outside of workable range to achieve the correct dimensions. Secondly the Palette offset for this and another file are not the standard 60. So, how would I be able to determine the appropriate offset in these case? Would Notepad++ or a Hex Editor help to determine the offset?
