Aaaaaah, thank you very much!

yes i finally got the model viewer working on my computer!!!!!!! now im trying to find new animations, like the one where riku is holding his hand out to sora when the heartless attack destiny islands that would be sweeeeet

^^ some new animations.. i replaced it with a different mset on the original mset file in a hex editor, it was a very complicated process.. but, it was worth it ^^ im trying to find different animations like when rikus telling sora to close the door and when kairi gets blown away on the island and sora reaches for her ^^

No fair. I want! Did you find any new mset animations that falo's dumper and yaz0r's dumper missed? I want the missing cutscene animations for Kairi, too. (Esp the ones of her chatting on destiny island in the evening or the first cutscene that has her giggling at something riku said.)

I wish I knew now to hex edit. There's a giant fail for me. I dumped the di.ard files with falo's duper and looked through them in a hex editor for fun though. Falo's dumper includes an option to dump text though I believe, but I haven't tried that yet.

this is in di03.ard, I think it might be dialogue, and what's interesting is the only model of kairi that shows up is xa_ex_7140.mdls. The mset that goes with that mdls is her standard non animated pose, but I have a feeling that xa_ex_7140.mdls is the model used for one of the DI cutscene animations...but it only mentions the standard xa_ex_7140.mset, which is just her pose. Argh, so confusing... (and then there's the thing where there's a xa_ex_7140_pp.mset animation - for the peter pan cutscene, yet there's no xa_ex_7140_pp.mdls to accompany it.)

Here you can see the mdls, and RIGHT AFTER that, what I think is the dialogue:



Interesting that you see 'RIKU' 'RIKU2', 'KAIRI2' and then 'SORAH' 'KAIRI H' and 'RIKUH'.

Why is Kairi's 'H' a space apart, I wonder. I wonder if the 'H' stands for a high poly model, or something else.

Falo's dumper is nice, because if you know the filename, it will dump it for you. But I tried dumping a .MOA file (di_d000.moa) and the dumper said it doesn't exist, even though I see it in the .ard file. Confusing....

I know Yaz0r found the animation of Kairi where she's giggling, because I remember him showing a screenshot of the model posing from that scene in his model viewer (a long time ago...). I wish I could find it somehow.

Oh, and just for fun...

For some weird inexplicable reason, her pose makes me think 'it's Godzilla Kairi!'

^^ yep i did cause i know some of the file names, some of msets are inside the evm files. for example dc08_a011.evm, dc stands for disney castle, and this might be one of the cutscene animations from the disney castle , i tried dumping a .MOA file too and the dumper said it didnt exist.. hmmm .. lol godizilla kairi XD

There are things called moa files and they have msets as well but no current dumper can find them. I suspect the mset for Ansem's final speeches are part of that, but as they are unavailable I can't get Ansem to repeat any of his dialogue except his pre-installed mset for Hollow Bastion. Can anyone find those?

help i can't get the extracter in the map viewer to work

Thanks! I'm off to fail at trying to extract some msets from the evm files I dumped.

i didnt get all the destiny islands evm files, cause some of the file names i dont know D:.... but i remember keyword searching through this file and seeing evm files not sure if they were all of them.

Well I managed to figure out the header thanks to other msets I have. Now I have the problem of figuring out what model it goes with.


horrors! that one leg wiggles around too, like some morbid zombie leg.

holy cras

O.O OMG!!! well i managed to match one model however and thats sora sitting down while talking to kairi during the evening D: i cant get it now however, its on my other computer .... but holy crap D:

lol things went so much easier once I looked at msets I knew belonged to kairi. I found the identifier string, or whatever the heck you call that.

in hex numbers it's:

22000002 00002002 00408000 00000002 00000002
00000002 00000000 00000002 00000002 00000000
00000002 25000002 00006002 00000002 00488002

but searching for '25000002 00006002 00000002 0048' is the best way to find likely kairi msets, but then you have to search again for '22000002 00002002 00408000 00000002 00000002' to see if it matches. (My hex editor wouldn't let me search for that entire chunk.)

In ascii it's these four symbols: " @ % H
But spaced out over two lines inbetween padding, or whatever you'd call the ...'s.

Then for anyone that doesn't know, the header starts as '03000000 80000000', and 'MMTN' (or 4D 4D 54 4E) should show up on line 0078h. The mset ends at the ascii code _KN5, but I usually leave the padding in place that comes after that. Or whatever the heck it's technically called.

I was able to find all her DI cutscenes that were missing (I think), although for two of them, the viewer crashes on one of the animations. For the horrid leg of doom, turns out I didn't trim the mset file well enough, so it screwed up the bone placement.

Kairi's msets show up in these di.evm files:
di01a_a001.evm
di01_n011.evm
di01_n012.evm
di01_n041.evm
di03_n011.evm
di03_n012.evm
di04_n031.evm
di04_n041.evm
di04_n043.evm
di08_n011.evm

Looking at Riku's msets, I think I see a similar 'identifier' tag or whatever it's called. If they all have those identifier tags, they can easily be matched up with the appropriate model.

she laughs at my struggles. lol

hehehe so you noticed XD

i would love to have riku and soras evm files including when they were little kids.. god that zombie leg scares me XDDD

And what of Ansem, Seeker of Darkness? How do I find his msets?

Also, has anyone scene THIS glitched-up scene? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qn_Ui6hVChY
