Forza Motorsport Resource Extraction (.carbin)

[shakotay2]

Also, @shakotay2, I understand that it's a huge undertaking so the answer is likely no, but would there ever be plans to somehow repackage edited models back as a modelbin that the game can support?

I don't have such plans, sry, no. (I'm only some kind of quick'n dirty hacker and I'd be happy to get decent uvs here.)

oh when I try to import DB11, Make_H2O-ForzaHor crash

Yes the pic is bentley obviously.

I import obj to deep exploration and lightwave. body_a LOD0/1/2/3/4 are all together as one object.

Use a wavefront obj importer that supports groups:
(using blender 2.76)

Obviously body_a_4 and (body_a_5+body_a_1) are separate lods.

I agree. I love forza models. Forza models are very very high quality.

It is possible, but not any time soon, since we couldn't even do it with older games lol

updated exe in post as of Sun Jan 15, 2017 6:18 pm should fix the scaling for most models.

The AST_DB11 looks better now, only a few misplaced parts (mainly lower lods; o, yeah some glass and wingMirror inside the car ):

(doorHandleLF_a seems to be two doors baked together?)

Excellent

No only doors, all details that have lods. Wings,bumpers,glass,windows have all lods on one detail)

shakotay2@ First of all many thanks to take your time to figure this out and let us manipulate this beauty´s (3d models) as they are the best around!

The only issue i see right now to have usable 3D models is the fact that some mesh names have more then 1 lod, in fact they have all lods together and it´s impossible to work and separate them in a good and fashion way.... You need to do the work manually and that will take big amount of your time doing it!

On the AST_DB11 for instance body_a_4 has all body lods packed together on same name, if it was a way to make the extraction with separate lods it would make more sense.....
To use blender or 3ds max is the same thing, some names have the lods all packed together on same name item.

An example of what i´m talking about, made some tests on FORZA 6 APEX model and what is happening:

File comes with 5 LOD´S packed all together



After some work detaching parts and reassemble them in order to fit properly i found those 5 lods



Same happens on bumpers front and rear, bodys, wheels, calipers, rotors, doors, fenders etc, all the big ones with more then 3000/4000 faces are meshes with several lod meshes all together.

Hope you or someone find the solution for this.

[aliann34]

Any progress or update ?

[TomWin]

Well apart LODs that are merged all together also models dont have materials yet and incorrect UV. I think they are in very huge scale too.
Hope this problems can be solved, it's amazing that you already got until this point of progress.
Good luck


BTW. any idea how to open textures?
