MDL0 files from Non-Brawl games

[meleemaster500]

I tried to check sw: force unleashed 2 (playme-swtfu2 4.37gigs) but it wouldn't open in wiiscrubber for me.

 

[Lionman]

hello again everyone.
i'm currently checking if Sengoku Basara: Samurai Heroes (PAL version) has mdl0's.
the files are in .arc format, so i'm gonna use arc extractor to see if any mdl0's are present.
let you guys know soon.

Im interested

What happened to kamen rider!??!?

i wanted that so bad....

Any one attempted of importing Ken waisho into brawl? from Tatsunako Vs Capcom, i would love to see him in brawl, either over ganondorf or over Captain Falcon. or over any other character.

Has anyone checked Goldeneye for MDL0's?

Don't get your hopes up.

Dous Mario Super Sluggers Use Mdl0 Format?

Oop. That's one I forgot to add.

No, it doesn't have MDL0.

What Programs do you recommend for .ARC files such as Sin and Punishment?

 

[Pinutk]

I wonder if CoD Black Ops uses MDL0's. :O
We could do some pretty AWESOME things with the guns! Prolly doesn't use ML0's though

Try using U8Tool on them.

As I have said in the first post (and multiple times in this topic), don't expect any games from American or European-based developers to have MDL0. Every game we've checked hasn't proven otherwise yet.

 

[luigiman1928]

Don't get your hopes up.

Is that a no?

 

[Ronaldmcdonald]

What would I use as an ''external file'' to extract stuff from Tatsunoko vs. Capcom?

 

[luigiman1928]

Ok, so GoldenEye uses .000 and .bin files. T_T i could find MDL, but not MDL0 in the .000 files, so maybe they are compressed and need to be decompressed!

I do believe this is the Fpack extractor that I use.

OR maybe it's just their own format. MDL-anything is a pretty generic file extension.

Yeah. "MDL" does not always mean "MDL0". I believe I've mentioned that before. Anyhoo...

Sonic Colours (Colors, whatever) has been confirmed to use MDL0. I certainly wasn't expecting that.

(EDIT: Hm... the MDL0s seem to be much more complicated to get working, as the automatic hexer doesn't work on the models... =/)

Does someone know where textures and animations in Revenge of king Piccolo are located?

hyyypppee for a fix to that

 

[Segtendo]

Hell yea, we can get some sweet stages

 

[RandomTBush]

Yeah, we could, but unfortunately the MDL0s will need more fixing than just correcting the header, materials and polygons. For one thing, the one stage segment I hexed has a broken bone structure due to extra properties (like the ToS2 models have) and the Textures2 section is all buggered up, so I can't even preview it in BrawlBox. (And the Egg Pawn model has much more problems...) I'll see if I can figure out how to get it working sometime this weekend.

 

[Segtendo]

Good. Maybe when you figure it out, you could add it to the first post.

 

[RandomTBush]

Okay, I don't get this. The Sonic Colours MDL0s have the "Texture2" properties at the bottom of the file, right above the strings. And because of which, it's gonna crash the game because it's reading from invalid data... There's no way I can think of to fix that without re-organizing the entire MDL0 file...

Well, that sucks. =/

That DOES suck, because I was totally getting hyped.

At least it helps prevent Super Sonic Bros. Brawl.

Does Donkey Kong Country Returns Use Mdl0 Format?

 

[TommoPuppy]

Dude it's not even out yet. Unless people here have review copies, nobody knows. It could go either way really.

 

[RandomTBush]

Does Donkey Kong Country Returns Use Mdl0 Format?

I'll let you know when the game gets released. Somehow, I have a feeling it might not, but ya never know. I didn't expect Sonic Colours to use MDL0, despite being a newer variant.

 

[123kiro456]

What do you use to extract WiiWare Games, i cant find any

 

[NintendoShadowMario]

I highly think Donkey Kong Country Returns will have MDL0s. I hope it doesnt use the "newer" MDL0s like Sonic Colors.

 

[RandomTBush]

Use WWPacker to unpack the WAD files (just drag-and-drop it onto "__wwunpacker.bat"). You'll need a common-key.bin, but I'm not legally allowed to link you to that.

I highly think Donkey Kong Country Returns will have MDL0s. I hope it doesnt use the "newer" MDL0s like Sonic Colors.

We're just gonna have to wait and see when the game is released, which I think is tomorrow.

 

[123kiro456]

Okay i extracted it (The game is: Final Fantasy My Life As a King)
i got a bunch of .app files, can you tell me how to get to the models of F-F-M-L-A-a-K?
just make a breif tutorial and send it to me via PM

For the *.APP files, use U8Tool to unpack them.

 

[123kiro456]

Thanks for the quick response
EDIT: i cant find the right one every one i find tend to be a wad creator
can i have a link or something? sorry if im being to needy

 

[Ultraxwing]

has any 1 ported Ken the Eagle from Tatsunuko VS Capcom?

can some 1 do it, over a character like Snake?

i want to make the character, with the new brawl box, its quite possible.

 

[Ronaldmcdonald]

Yeah I have all of the Tatsunoko vs. Capcom models and stages. Just PM me and tell me what you want.

 

[TommoPuppy]

I have my doubts because the game is made by Retro Studios, and none of their previous games on Wii used MDL0s... right?

Right, although Metroid Prime 3 used their previous engine for Metroid Prime 2 (like Super Mario Galaxy 2 did with the engine from the first SMG), and Sega all of a sudden used MDL0 with Sonic Colours, despite not doing so for Sonic and the Secret Rings and Sonic and the Black Knight, or even the Wii version of Sonic Unleashed, so ya never know.

 

[Nintens]

I can confirm that Donkey Kong Country Returns does not use MLD0. It uses .PAK like Metroid Prime 3 does. It's a shame. This game has some pretty cool level designs too.

Yeah, it is a bit of a shame.

On a bit of a brighter side, Pac-Man Party uses MDL0.

But you kinda have to ferret through the ARC files to find the model and textures, because they're all in individual BRRES files for some reason. And you'll have to extract 'em the same way you would with the Dragon Ball models, since the ARC files are actually containers and not compressed like other ARC files are.

 

[NintendoShadowMario]

Lol cool imagine Pac-Man in brawl. Id willing to be working on that lol.

The eyes... THE EYES!!!

That's the new Pac-Man for ya. I actually don't mind his new design (and I personally say that it's more like Pac-Man Jr., especially because of his voice).
