Hello, I'm trying to extract data from MMX. It's written in Unity so I can access it's asset with Unity Assets Bundle Extractor:



Also every .pak file (archive with game files) has it's .info.xml file with informations about it's content:
So I can export RAW file and I know it's type, it should be no problem, but it is. I cannot open extracted file in any program. Here is example data from game and here is extracted RAW sound file that should be WAV. This should be model in PREFAB format.

jaguar-warrior.dat 0x70 - length of face indices (divide by 2 for face count)
0x82f60 - vertex count
0x82f8c - vertex stride(?)

the UV block starts right after the vertex block ends
the length of the vertex block is stride * count

Wow, you're awesome. How about other data? I especially need skeletons and animations. Is it possible to extract them? If you need some game files, here you are

Somebody something?

you won't expect someone to download 124 MB of samples, do you?
Also for animations follow (my) "unwritten rules", please.

• upload an animation sample file (<100 kB if possible)
• upload suiting skeleton
• tell number of bones, if possible

(The more infos you provide the more likely someone will care for your request.)

You're right. Sorry for that. I believe that skeleton is with mesh because I cannot find separate file for it. This archive is quite mess, but I believe I extracted all we need for test. Here you are

static mesh format is the same as for characters; we'd need a character model file for skeleton (might be >100 kB)

My fault. This archive is total mess and I pick wrong file. This set should be OK

thx - did you check those dat files or use hex2obj on them?

On a quick glance I don't see any skeleton data in them.

Unity Assets Bundle Extractor defines those files as meshes. I didn't find any separates skeletons file in this archive, so I believe they must be with models, but no I didn't look at those files with hex2obj because I dont' know how to. If somebody give me quick tuturial, that would be great

This is a rather simple format which uses floats so the tut button in hex2obj should do.

Anyways getting the mesh wouldn't help you too much. It would only be useful to assure that all data (or > 90% of it) is related to the mesh
and I didn't overlook something.

Button 'tut' is disabled in my hex2obj app. What I'm doing wrong? Besides, if there is no skeleton in this file, this model could help, because MMX uses the same models as Heroes 6, but I don't know if bones are named in the same way. Maybe this helps.

very strange - never heard of such.
As a workaround you could simply open the file hex2obj_tut.rtf in your hex2obj folder.

I don't have a clue how you could think this could help?
It's a wavefront obj file which per definition doesn't hold skeleton data, afaik.

Right, that should be better. It's model with skeleton from H6. I've downloaded newer version of hex2obj and everything works fine. But decoding hexes in that file is really hard for me, because I'm really a noob

how should we know if the bones are named in the same way if the don't have an MMV skeleton?

You could try to use this H6 skeleton for MMX but in my experience it's very unlikely that it will fit:
