These scripts can read and edit TMC's. Unfortunately, they don't handle custom meshes, but if you want to move a piece that already exists you can. You do not have to extract anything first, you can go directly from one costume to the next.
Basic concepts. TMC's have a group of objects called 'ObjGeo' or Object Geometry. These are usually groups of individual mesh pieces. Nyotengu's wings have their own ObjGeo, usually character bodies are part of an ObjGeo. Sweat, Accessories often exist in an ObjGeo, but within each ObjGeo are the individual meshes. I'll use Nyotengu's towel costume. It has several ObjGeo's wings, fan, towel, body, etc. Her 'WGT_Body' ObjGeo has 3 mesh pieces, 1 for the panties, 1 for the body, 1 for the shoes. This does not require hex, but you can use a Hex Editor or can import the xbox model into 3dsmax to find these values. Even the TMC utils may help find these numbers.
So...
If you open MeshInjectorDual and edit the variables, you can move one mesh piece from one costume to another. You have to provide the number of the group (ObjGeo) and the mesh (the item inside of the ObjGeo) There are variables that need the names of the files, so if you have those python scripts in the same location as your file, you can just update sourceFileName = 'MyCostume_01.TMC' (update to actual name of course) for the source and target files. Provide the other correct numbers, and it's ready to run.
I use IDLE to run these scripts, so once you edit it, press F5 to run it. If done correctly with no errors, the script will output a new copy of the TMC & TMCL which should be visible in Noesis.
Let me know if this helps

-How many plugins is there to get for python to understand all I'm supposed to ask him to do to get the models? The plugins: "file.py" are to be installed in the folder Tools/Scripts of the folder of the Python version installed right?
-I should use the blender version for x64 as well and not the x32 right?
-I found Uarchivarius 1.6b and Uarchivarius 1.7b, and read about the Tools Quickbms and all the scripts(so many...) and hum, are those tool still useful and able to extract the thing from the archive character_common.bin and .lnk? When I run Uarchivarius(in the game folder) 1.6b or 1.7b and try to open char**common.bin the cmd window display: "multiple lnk archives not supported", I didn't found explanation about this on this topic, there's lot of page, if there is a better unpacker or a tutorial very easy for noob like me, give me a link please, if you want a screenshot about this error feel free to ask me.
-And all the QuickBms and simple doa5 unpacker are useless for pc version?
-Does all the DLC have to be owned in order to make your tools work?
I have Noesis, I didn't found the LNK script of the video tutorial about QuickBms.
I also saw the tutorial of Darko page 38 but it's not helping me either yet. Because I cannot unpack the archive yet. I would know how please.
I just would edit some model on 3dsmax, thank you for reading, will hope for soon reply and wish you a nice day while waiting.
- I think any near recent version of Python 3 should be good.
- Python plugins not sure for Blender
- Blender x64/x32 may not matter as long as the plugins do run
- Archivarius is the best unpacker that I know of, make sure you have the PC version, I thought it was 1.8, but I could be wrong.
- The Quickbms methods were mostly for vanilla DOA5 on Xbox, I don't think those methods are up to date
- There are a few scripts for Noesis that go in the plugins/python folder to allow viewing of TMC's I don't recally which onces but they are named doa5.py or something similar
