Smash Bros Melee Model Viewer Status

[Someone!]

Yeah, I saw that on MSN, it looks awesome: You are the best php coder ever.

 

[mechakoopa]

Fixed: Stop detection errors, makes the model looks messed up.

Here's Samus.

 

[Someone!]

Man, it would be cool if you could export php to model

 

[mechakoopa]

Yes, it is possible, but not now.

I don't have any knowledge about faces, UVs, and textures.

 

[Someone!]

Well, I can make UV Maps by myself.

 

[Valant Novaligh]

Woah, that's crazy mechakoopa. There's an optical illusion that makes it hard to tell which side is facing you =P. Cool
UV mapping isn't bad. It's getting the faces that's been the most trouble for me- polygon groups. I have trouble understanding how the game interprets these models without choking up somewhere =P
I'll probably figure it out just in time for SSBB. Oh well.

 

[mechakoopa]

I'm stuck about faces too. :S!

And yeah, I don't know how to do the perspective.

Man, it would be cool if you could export php to model

considering that through php you can resize images to new thumbnail files [like imageshack does] as well as modify them, odds are good that you CAN export to a 3d format, especially since most 3d formats uncompressed are similar text files...

Is Pl???.dat file an archive files?
I see the list of files, I think, at the start of file.

Are there anyway to extract it?

By the way, I went to some offset in the file and see the sequence of numbers near 00 00 and FF FF

I thought it was vertice data, and what I see is...

Yes, no, maybe, I don't know.

 

[Someone!]

Which PL is that?

 

[mechakoopa]

Player file.

 

[Someone!]

I mean for which character.

 

[mechakoopa]

PlMr.dat
I'll let you guess.

 

[Someone!]

Marth or Mr. Game And Watch I think

 

[Sercio]

i do guess jigglypuff

 

[psychodan]

Yes. The DAT files are archive files. In them is a number of different things. I made a batch file that extracts them... Mentioned this earlier, thats how i get textures.

 

[mechakoopa]

No, it's Mario, it's just messed up.

psychodan: Can you send me the extractor program?

 

[Someone!]

Batch...
Textures...
Dear god :O

 

[psychodan]

psychodan: Can you send me the extractor program?

Not at the moment. If I release the Maxscript eventually [only after someone else creates a viewer AND extractor or some type of converter], I'll be including it in that [otherwise the maxscript would be useless as it doesn't work with "dat" files alone].

However, If SarahHarp decides to include an extraction method in her viewer tho, I'll probly offer the source to her though if she hasn't gotten it by then.
