I would like to second this request, has anyone come across this as they've unpacked the files? I would guess it's in the data1.dat, but am away from my regular PC to check right now.laszers wrote:So while im not new to modding, I am 100% new to the metal gear scene. Would someone be kind enough to point me in the direction of weapon damage parameters?
Thanks in advance.
Ok, I didn't have much time today, but I found what looks like a start in data1.dat, in the lua files. However, the weapon parameters are hard to guess at, as the file names are still messed up after unpacking with the QAR tool (make sure to use the -r parameter). I opened all of the LUA files with Notepad ++, and searched all windows to find what look like ammo counts for magazines and total ammo available for carrying by a number that appears to designate a specific weapon. When you actually put in a weapon's name as shown in game, nothing comes up however.laszers wrote:So while im not new to modding, I am 100% new to the metal gear scene.

Can you share the root of the different characters please?VoliPanda wrote:Greetings everyone.
I'm new to this community and wanted to ask a little for help. I'm currently looking for Phantom Pain's 3D models. Is it possible to find them in the files? Has anyone found out their location and which format are they on? Plus is there any way to convert them in to a .obj format?
Currently looking for the main characters + NPCs aka Big Boss/Snake, Quiet, Ocelot, D-Dog, D-Walker, Kojima. Doesn't have to the be entire character + animations, all I want is their meshes in standard pose. I plan to add bones later and make some nice poses haha.
A great thanks for the ones that made the QARtool and the ftexttool possible. Currently extracting all game files to see what I can find.
Great thanks in advance, and sorry if I can't post/ask for stuff like this :B
Edit1: Okay, so I found out about the .fpk files and it's tool in this topic. Judging by what's inside, I think that the fmdl file is the one that I might be looking for. Am I corrent? If so, how can I open/convert this file?

There are some other numbers which might indicate damage, but will require testing.

I've got the fpk_dictionary file for a specific chunk, which was previously exported with QAR tool. How can I match a specific file within the container with the ones I've got in dictionary? There's a lot of files that has "huge sequence of numbers.fpk" as filenamecra0 wrote:Here is the stringtool

I found how to edit specific weapons. Each weapon has a designated number which can be used to find them. There are three files we are interested in, using the dragunov like gun "60203" in the files below:laszers wrote:chiconspiracy wrote:Ok, I didn't have much time today, but I found what looks like a start in data1.dat, in the lua files.

I have kind of found the files that relate to damage a few days ago, but no one responded so I figured no one really cared.
if you want just straight damage, if you go into data1 you can find the lua file called 2f343d3e6eea4 this you can go change the DAM_SOURCE_Sniper (or any other gun type) and change it for each weapon. I got results, it does work, but you cant tell which weapon is which or if the DAM_SOURCE_Sniper, even with multiple entries, isnt specific to each different sniper just because we cant tell which in-game sniper or other gun is which. I guess we could find through trial and error, but that would take allot of time. If you find anything else please let me know, im interested in pursuing this further.
I figured as much that those numbers correlated to a specific weapon or form of attack. My only problem at this point, is there a way to find out the correlation by using something other than mag size? as that is very limiting. If not I may just change each weapons mag size 1 - whatever and and take down which is which for a chart. Also what is the difference in all of the numbers for damage? If I can edit DAM_SOURCE's two numbers, and get the desire damage, why change the others? Are they all added together?chiconspiracy wrote:

1. 39375763ab913: This file shows the magazine size and total ammo size, and can be used to find certain weapons. I knew the dragunov copy had 8 rounds in the magazine, so it was easy to find: {TppEquip.EQP_AM_60203,8,121,TppEquip.BL_Rf762mmSniperMag} *note, i changed the total ammo size after the magazine size here
2. 213fd1c038491: This file shows the components of the weapons, what kind of barrel they have, optics, and what I think are recoil and force values. I haven't messed with this too much yet, but found "{TppEquip.RC_60203,TppDamage.ATK_60203,72,79,53,25}", one of many references to "60203"
3. 2f343d3e6eea4: This lua file has the specific weapon damage. I only had time to test a few, but I changed the gun that looks like a dragunov sniper rifle to have increased damage in the following line: {TppDamage.ATK_60203,3600,3000,500,0,0,2100,2100,TppDamage.INJ_TYPE_BULLET,TppDamage.INJ_PART_ALL,100,40,2,2,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,TppDamage.DAM_SOURCE_Sniper,3600,0,1200}
Sent, I found a few paths in there, didn't think I would.cra0 wrote:Someone if they could please send me the ps3/xbox either EBOOT.BIN or the xex file
