MDL0 files from Non-Brawl games

[ForOhFor Error]

mdl0 might mean MDL0 files, that's the first thing I did in Okami's ISO.

 

[RandomTBush]

Yeah, but ISOs, like I said, are encrypted and need to be extracted with either Dolphin or WiiScrubber.

Anyway, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers does NOT use MDL0. Just checked it a few minutes ago.

 

[xetan2]

Alright, well I searched ALMOST every file in budokai 3, and none of them have a trace of mdl0, but a couple of the files, when I try to extract them, my wiiscrubber stops responding, so only part of the file gets extracted...

 

[ForOhFor Error]

For those, you'll want to wait for the file to finish extracting. really, you should leave wiiscrubber to work, without clicking it for about 10 minutes. Then open the file once it's done, and ssearch for MDL0 in the hex data of it.

 

[xetan2]

alright, I did that and it appears to not have any trace of mdl0, this is my first game I've ever truly went through each file to check though, so if someone wanted to double check with a more sufficient method that'd be cool. Question though, what's the difference between mdl0 and mdl3? I found a string in here that said mdl3...

.arc files in Godzilla Unleashed!

Lets see if I can crack these babies.

.bin too!

"mdl3" has absolutely no relation to MDL0. In fact, I'm almost certain that it's not a file format, but rather the bytes "6D 64 6C 33" in order, from something else.

I believe Godzilla: Unleashed was already looked through, and it didn't have MDL0.

Since everyone's looking for "MDL0", you should also try looking for "bres" or "TEX0". As I said before, the "MDL0" is always case sensitive.

 

[TommoPuppy]

I'm back from my holiday. I'm gonna back up my copy of Fragile Dreams just to see if it uses MDL0.

EDIT: Scratch that. WiiHTTPd won't start for some reason. It's probably an IOS issue, but I can't be bothered fixing it now.

 

[KururuSouchou]

So, has anyone been able to find any MDL0s in Toy Story Mania, Toy Story 3, or Sengoku Basara: Samurai Heroes?

 

[NintendoShadowMario]

I heard that the Nintendo 3DS will be using MDL0's for most Nintendo games.

Where'd you hear that?

Links, or it didn't happen.

Hey, I looked through the ISO of "gintama banji oku chuubu (***)" and the files are packed in .pac files and in my hex editor(HxD), I can see the bresby, root and the MDL0 in the data but it's layered strangely...

Might be compressed in some way, then, but it definitely sounds like it has MDL0.

All the files in Toy Story mania are .bik and .wii files. When I open them up in a HxD I don't see any sign of MDL0, TEX0, or CHR0. So then to my understanding that means 2 things, either the files are encrypted, or there is no trace of MDL0 in the game, right? (I'm just trying to help, sorry for all the stupidity on my end)

 

[ForOhFor Error]

Still need to figure out te okami models' problems.... something to do with materials 1, I bet...

Okay, well, I'm only following this topic, but I believe a few other Movie based games use .wii and no MDL0, so I'd assume the same for Toy Story Mania :/

I would join in on this project, but most of the programs needed aren't Mac compatible, unless I go through the trouble of using WINE.

 

[yellowthunder]

RandomTBush, do you think you could help me with this issue? I don't know whether this is an incompatibility issue, or I did something wrong during the process of hexing the models, but no matter what the Sonic Colo(u)rs models still refuse to even load in brawl. (I'm using terminal velocity's stage and sky with the stage lighting)

 

[xetan2]

I need to get a copy of Toy Story 3 the game then to check that. I would love to bring Buzz Lightyear into brawl, I think it'd just be awesome haha

I'd love to get Woody in, if only so I can vertex this.

And couldn't you just rent a copy long enough to extract the necessary content?

Send the files to me and I'll take a look at them, see what needs to be fixed.

I could, if I had a job, I've been jobless for a little while now, BUT I have a job interview tomorrow haha (off topic I know) So I'll look around for a copy of it and check it out. but I'm 99% sure we can add budokai 3 and toy story mania to the list of games that DON'T have MDL0

Alright, thanks for your help. I'll PM the brres I'm using to you.
I'm planning on porting whatever stage I can from Colo(u)rs, I just need to figure out what I'm doing wrong at the moment.

I figured out the problem. Check your PMs for the fixed PAC file.

Makes me really wish that SRT0 files could be edited or viewed, so that I could find out why the ones taken from Sonic Colours won't work, while the ones from TMNT: Smash-Up do.

 

[ForOhFor Error]

Again, the okami models are displaying improperly ingame.

I've been meaning to look into why they're doing that, but I've been backlogged with all sorts of other things. Before I forget again, I'll go take a look shortly.

(EDIT: It's definitely something to do with the material properties. I'll see what values need to be modified to get them to work properly.)

(EDIT 2: Yeah, I think it's the material properties... for the characters, at least. Stage parts seem to work fine?)

 

[yellowthunder]

Well this seems to work perfectly (using the fixed pac)

My main issue here is porting the lighting, unless that's pretty much impossible for Colo(u)rs now.
Also STR0 has to do with texture movement am I right?
EDIT: Before I forget, it seems the stage files that are over 1MB from this game won't even go through the hexers, I just get a bone display in BrawlBox's main viewer.

 

[Segtendo]

Oohhh, Terminal Velocity. Nice

Looks excellent can't wait to get it :D
And yes Str0 data deals with texture movement

 

[ForOhFor Error]

Looks great.

 

[wildvine47]

Alright, I checked it, and Toy Story Mania does NOT have .mdl0's.

Only .wii files.

 

[JetAurion]

lulz ".wii files".

So PS3 games have ".ps3" files?

/lame joke

 

[wildvine47]

Well, if you thought that was funny, some of the other files were .dik

But PS3 has no gaems.

If you did Planet Wisp I would love you forever.

It has Little Big Planet, and Little Big Planet 2. That's all it needs.

You clearly did not get the joke

Can you send me this stage?

 

[yellowthunder]

In the process of porting there's a little issue with Stage Models that aren't Terminal Velocity or Gameland (or credits).

I'm not sure what the issue is here, but I don't think these can be corrected in any way.
