Ghost In The Shell: First Assault models thread

[episoder]

lots of hoops? i did it too. i used that fsbext (thx) with a batch file ddrop target

fsbext -e %%lAn2{Pi*Lhw3T}@7*!kV=?qS$@iNlJ %1
pause

to just decrypt the files and google found another (working) extractor [URL="http://forum.worldoftanks.eu/index.php?/topic/364201-tool-fmod-fsb-extractor-v1/"]here[/URL]. aezay's doesn't do the ogg trick. i also saved a couple of megabytes compared to your download, decompresing mono files as mono files. i was just too stupid to notice i had to have only one fsb in the directoy the tool depacked from.

also... if i guess correct any reverb effects are added ingame based on the surroundings. i mean... that's how it's supposed to be.

now... i just don't know why the jpn and kor sound so similar and weird. and togusa doesn't sound like togusa. x)

just for the heck of it...

i call blasphemy to remodel somebody's work, but... i did a lil plastic too. it's still wip. tryna make her look alil more mean. also doing clothes and equipment. :)

Hello, so apparently the game is on Steam now, as early access. From what I have read on the page those who has participated in the close beta have free access for the early access. So anyone else willing to try it now have to wait or pay 5 Euro to join the train. Anyone who's on the game now can you share the client files?

[saumguy]

it seems like there was still a lot of content in here that was not yet pulled from the client files: [video=youtube;nGwkmRrFYJY]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGwkmRrFYJY[/video]

Some of the guys were talking about putting up the files but i don't think that ever happened yet. Too bad to since some of those models are aesthetically nice.

[sigma47]

Has anybody tried their luck with the animation files?
I couldn't find anything regarding the qsa & nsa files referenced in the naturalmotion binaries and how to convert them to anything that might resemble a fbx file.

[SoujiMonaru]

How do i view all those nif files? Even Nifskope 2.0 Dev 4 can't access them. Is there something I am not understanding here? Thanks for any assistance.

Use Noesis instead of Nifskope.

smh

That program was made for Bethesda Gamebryo games.

[Xenomort]

Hey guys, I'm pretty new to all this stuff and I'm mostly focused on animating in Maya, and really want to use these assets.

Can anyone point me to how I can get this to work in Maya, I'm not looking for spoonfeeding, just a source to work from is fine.

[Portugalotaku]

You will need gamebryo engine tools and extractors. It should get you the models in a common format you can import in maya.

Biddy bump, is anyone working on the tachikomas, if so I'd like to talk to them, if not, can someone who's previously extracted them pass me the files? any and all variants ye can find

sure. [URL="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6o4C35bKYAdNG5oa3JTcVZ3dUE/"]tachi raw[/URL]. it's extract from the old files, but should do. needs a bit of work. a lit bit of re-rigging. the extractor i have just wa/isn't perfect. enjoy. :smile:

i don't wanna complain about it, but... the raw contains a texture with the mask for the phong intensity, an ambient occlusion map, and a phongexponent proxy. you can also reverse mix the envmapmask with a combo of the _c texture to provide phongalbedotint for the colored reflection. or you gotta choose to use as the envmetal mask. right. but... source shaders are not up to that materials. so.. yeh... :smile:

I hate to sound ignorant but I really don't know jack about texture work. I try to do the best I can but even then some things come out looking like crap.

[Zachariah]

bump from the dead, but the movie just came out so this shits relevant. I accidentally went too deep with tachikoma, for a future release, ad I was wondering if anybody could pull out any of the other tachikoma models from the game?

link to album full of images which are too high res for here

those are the reskins I have been working on, and I really want to get my hands on this guy and any other mechs in the game. raws are cool

[Katra804]

I only know of the two normal Tachikoma models (the classic blue ones that Section 9 has, and that black one provided in your screenshot there) and a mini Tachikoma from the game (there's also a gun turret listed, but I still don't see how that's a Tachikoma), so unless they added more, I think you'll only find the two large/regular size ones and the mini.

[episoder]

[QUOTE=Zachariah;52075293]raws are cool[/QUOTE]

okay. the black one. still from the beta. [URL="http://www.mediafire.com/file/7usdh2gw5dj1n6y/tachi_k.rar"]http://www.mediafire.com/file/7usdh2gw5dj1n6y/tachi_k.rar[/URL]. may only work nice in blender. enjoy upgrading it. you doing a fine job there. :smile:

if you want the actual models right now... you should download the game and extract those. i dunno if it still works like we did back then.

[Zachariah]

thanks . I think I have an art fetish for repainting robots. not a sexual one, but a creative one, what I'm saying is it gives me an art boner. and is fun practice (which will see releases soonish ) Also the rigging credit goes to shady the first, who had no know knowledge of GITS and still did a great job.

Black tachi is pretty cool *(though christ just how bout a good version of the GITS tachikoma, first assault devs . Also Is the game fun, and if its bad, how long would I have to play to see the content for myself? my intetnet is currently too crap for real online mp. ) anything even remotely tachikomaish or mech-ish I'd love the raws too, I'm teaching myself all this crap, from all angles, so if they need fixing and rigging, I'll work towards that.

The rigging isn't complete, don't say I did a great job yet :)

Does anyone succeeded to rip Maven model? I like her to add to the SFM.

[QUOTE=CustomABC;52141995]Does anyone succeeded to rip Maven model? I like her to add to the SFM.[/QUOTE]

i'll have the data in 2 hours. will check if it's still possible to extract.

with a lil shader and paint you coulda build her from the beta files in the op. isolate the skin and use her specularity map for the cloth. for her face you coulda used the highres face texture from the major. just recolor the eyes and move some uv islands. did that while still waiting for my slow cable. you see... :v:

[episoder]

well... the game still extracts just fine. but...

holy shit... what i missed, how many character models are in there now. and they look really good.

now... that maven is... :smug:

[t]http://i.imgur.com/dBUHhOp.png[/t]

[url]http://www.mediafire.com/file/p5uy15c27d648jc/maven_ordinary.rar[/url]

common raw thing. the partially broken weighting. deal with it.

if you want the other maven models get the game and rip them yourself.

There's some cool stuff in here if anyone's looking for more GITS stuff.

[Zachariah]

I've been told that extracting these models with original rigging is doable, can someone point me towards any info on the truth of this?

[E3245]

[QUOTE=Zachariah;52283821]I've been told that extracting these models with original rigging is doable, can someone point me towards any info on the truth of this?[/QUOTE]

Noesis's built-in NIF plugin can do it. I was able to export models with their original rigging (although you'll have to delete the LOD models from the exported model).

[Zachariah]

Thanks, you may have just saved someone alot of rigging.

[Portugalotaku]

I really should extract from this damn game already....

[kodaigan]

With new files and the game going into version 2.0, has anybody managed to pull new content from the files as of now?

It seems all the previous extractors are dead. And me being a newly addition to this stuff, I am not sure on how to do this. Somebody told me to do ProcDump to find a possible key for the encrpytion, if the files have a necessary key. Buuuut I'm still a green-nose on this one.

Anyhow, anyone of the experts words on this?

Best Regards
Koda
