Game Models

Hi everyone ,

I was wondering if it is possible to extract the models and their textures from a PS2 game and convert them so they could be used in a 3d Modelling Apllication...

Sorry if anyone has asked this before but I did a search and found nothing...

I've actually been wondering this myself. It seems like it'd be quite complex though. Considering how game companies had to make their own development libraries, it seems the models would all be stored differently .

Yeah... It probably would be hard, but there must be a way to do it...

It would be so killer to have the models from a PS2 game...

Technically, it can be added to the GS plugins, yes. Will it be done ? No idea, though I think it was once discussed.

I'd like to see that. I remember Milkshape could import one type of PS1 model, but the only thing i ever found in that format to import was the hands of people from Resident Evil 1...

Yeah, Does anyone know if anything else actually imported into that?

Anyway, I used to have this thing where I made 3d pictures with the characters from games, I tried to find some FF7 battle models, but ended up having to try and make my own. I made a Cloud that looked half decent but lost it when I had to format my computer...

Ok, Would it be easier to extract PS1 models or would there be the same issues?

Just thought I'd ask here instead of making another thread...

There is a program out that can read the FF7 PSX models right off the disc. If I remember correctly you can get it from www.zophar.net

I went there and got it, but I havn't had a chance to use it yet. Is there any way to extract them?

Pity there isn't a application that understands multiple file formats, I'd love to make one eventually but I am only just getting into coding and all the related stuff.

I used that FF7 program and it was really cool, a real pity it doesn't extract them though.

Same here.

I'd use the models in any 3d application that would support any format they were extracted to. It would be cool to make a game with the models that you extracted from the PS2 games you had...

I personally doubt this will ever happen. Its too much work to make a feature for such a limited audience.

If I ever made a game like that I'd make it so everyone had to use a certain set of character features (for obvious reasons), but since I'd be like an administrator I'd make it so I looked completely different from everyone else.

I'd make myself Cloud or something.

I'd thought of that, but a lot of other games with cool models seem to dodge the PC...
