ROM Hack Extracting models and textures from 3DS games

[Gericom]

Awesome, thanks! I tried that out and now I can load Spirit Tracks models, animations, and textures!

It's kinda buggy, though, and the model viewer's controls are awful. (Plus there's no option to re-center the view...)
Still cool!

I wish I could find Spirit Zelda's name. Spirit Tracks' NPCS are named with four letters...ugh.

Escape: Reset the position
T: Top View
Z: Left
X: Right
A: Up
S: Down
<-: Rotate Left
->: Rotate Right
^: Rotate Up
\/: Rotate Down

Thanks for the image, else I'd have no idea what it is you're adding. Once I actually start working on this stuff I should have a better idea.

So you're adding menu editing?

its a image format used in quite a few 3DS games

Yeah, that makes more sense.

 

[Gericom]

Yeah, that makes more sense.

No. It is the layout format used on the 3ds. Like brlyt on the wii.

Oh, I see. So I was (kinda) right! That's cool, that'll make it easy to add custom cups to Mario Kart!

Gericom MKDS exports as Maya 3.0 ASCII *.ma files. Can you add more export options ?
Only one file animated mesh ? Merging *.obj and *.ma in *.x file export will be nice.

I am planning dae support. (it does support bones and vertex color, right?) But it won't be in the first release.

Hello, if you don't play mkwii, you probarly don't know me, but I'm MrKoeikoei. I've been following the progress on this amazing tool, so I decided to create an account.

I can't wait to get my hands on this tool! I'd like to create custom tracks for MKWii using MK7's models.

Good luck on your project :-)

Ew... Now that's what I call counter productive.

First thing I'm gonna do is attempt to port a Wii map, or a DS map. Gericom, is the conversion process between the Wii and previous generations a terrible setup for the 3DS? As in, are there a lot of things that need to be changed, or is it a fairly straight-forward procedure? Would be cool if the logic behind the new file setup is similar to the Wii's, besides the new file format, of course.

The setup of a course in mkdd, mkds, mkwii and mk7 is all almost the same. Just a couple of format changes. Conversion should be rather straight forward.

After getting a 3D model, it isn't a lot of work anymore. I also ported a track from N64:

Yeah, I know it's not hard. It's just... What motive do you have to work with Mario Kart Wii anymore? Mario Kart 7's got online play, meaning we can 1-on-1 friends with custom tracks.

MKWii has online play as well, some days ago I played custom track with my friend, just 1-on-1. MKWii does not bore me yet, and I like it better than MK7.

Maybe because the wii is a console instead of a handheld, and because some people (including me) do not have a 3ds, but do have a wii.

That's one of the reasons indeed. I prefer a console. I also like the bikes in MKWii, which are removed in MK7.

You should get a 4.x 3DS brah.

Yeah, Mario Kart 7 isn't the greatest thing ever, unfortunately. I agree with ya, it's missing a lot, and it feels really rushed (Because it was).

Soooo, is there any way to like add a texture to the barrel? I mean, Smealum can do it
