How do you know the model is a CA18DET from the .dat file?
also how is a CA18DET related to a Nissan180sx.

CA18DET is the engine used in Nissan 180SX. Found it on wikipedia. I thought it was SR20DET, which was Silvia's engine (cmiiw).

My first car was the Nissan 180 Kouki and it was I who driving it for the first time on a racing track))
I will try to sort by file names for the defined auto, but it will take a very long time.
The initial task is to make a fully functional tool.

This is a very common and functional program for working with a large number of files.

I rely only on visual model parts, I have not yet found another way to sort them.

This is very good, as far as I understood in Import Tuner, another method of constructing a triangles is used, has differences from standard.

Oh boy, oh boy! :D
Can you explain to me what kind of things that the tool supports? Like besides extracting models of cars for example.

All that is related to cars, wheels, body kits, engines, mufflers and others.
Import of tracks is not supported, it is not needed since it is for WanganMidnight it is made.
We now have a lot of unique tuning parts, and perfect models of cars :mrgreen:

Ahhh... it'll be great for other games if tracks are supported. But at least it works for cars. Hoping it gets released soon!

Ah the tracks, that would be awesome, the Shinjuku and Shibuya lines + a lot of highly detailed parking areas are not present in WMPS3.

BTW did you guys know there's a glitch in Import Tuner Challenge that catapults your car in the air? xD

I don't know that, but i found out that with a max tuned subaru impreza, the car could do a stoppie when you brake at high speed. The back side of the car flying up and the car almost do a front flip. Mind telling me about the catapult glitch? I might try bringing my x360 back to life just to play the game again.

Also, is the tool not yet finished? I'm itching to get my hands on the game's models! :D

I tried as you suggested with both imprezas but it's not working for me sadly.

I'll just upload a video and link it here (filmed with my shitty smartphone camera as I don't have a capture card).

Wow. Didn't know there's a glitch like that. I might try bringing my x360 back to life and play the game again until i can show you the frontflip glitch (or stoppie glitch).

For now, i'll just wait until the tool is released by JohnHudeski or Blackracer. :mrgreen:

I can easily support tracks. In fact I was considering porting the game to unity at some stage. Just a few problems exist
-Identifying objects/ naming them from the extractor (Currently the export code provided is not good)
-I don't understand how to read lights or convert them to unity
-placement of car parts. The cars are very customization = many small parts i have to manually place
-biggest problems is identifying what textures go where

Normals and materials are now fixed

Reduced number of submeshes for vastly improved performance and easier texturing.

Well I discovered it on incident. I was slowly driving around Shuto Expwy and enjoying the view when suddenly my car jumped in the air :mrgreen:

@JohnHudeski
That's great news! I personally have no problem with waiting to get a more quality product but everyone's so hyped :D

Hi guys, I'm a little distracted, I'm here again.
Yes, we can try to make support for tracks, the main problem is how to sort and impose textures... With file names complete chaos.
