Is it possible to use model researcher or hex2obj? / Danball Senki Chou Custom 3DS

Post by forarkorder »

I need help or suggestions to extract mesh parts from Danball Senki Chou Custom 3DS. I've never seen this type of format before!
I think these files are mesh. If so, can I use hex2obj or model researcher?

Here's some sample.

Most data is compressed. Use this BMS script to unpack the rif container.
rifUnpacker.zip
Then use the following script to decompress the resulting slz files:

Mesh format appears to be simple, why not try it out?

Wow It's so cool! But, I Don't know exactly how to find start address. I've found it by color of hex, is it right method...?
Is there any pattern? or rule?

+ What is UV POS? I entered some number, but I can only make a UV map at 36

Usually not - but depends on what the colors mean.
Is there any pattern? or rule?
Pattern for finding start of face indices block is 0000 0100 0200, for example.
For other rules read the tutorial ('tut' button in hex2obj).
You might read Bigchillghost's tutorial, too (view link in my sig).
+ What is UV POS? I entered some number, but I can only make a UV map at 36
It's where the uv data is located in FVFblock (flexible vertex format, FVF, see tut).
(You will need a deeper understanding instead of just entering random numbers. :) )

What do the colors mean? What is the name of this program?

The program's name is Hex Workshop. When you using data visualizer in hex workshop, you can see colors of hex.

You can find color range in this link.
