Hacking Wii U model ripping has begun.

[12-11 01:25] <einstein95> Bleh, Twili
[12-11 01:26] <Kargaroc> and then there's this http://gbatemp.net/threads/wii-u-model-ripping-has-begun.375744/#post-5201008
[12-11 01:27] <Kargaroc> if this is legit in any way
[12-11 01:27] <Kargaroc> then it seems to be turning out very much like the 3DS
[12-11 01:27] <jrra> legit 100%
[12-11 01:27] <jrra> what do you mean about 3ds
[12-11 01:28] <Kargaroc> when 3ds files were first decrypted
[12-11 01:29] <Kargaroc> the 3ds hackers sent some of their findings
[12-11 01:29] <Kargaroc> straight to game hackers and whatnot
[12-11 01:30] <Kargaroc> happened with OoT 3D's files
[12-11 01:32] <Kargaroc> so apparently someone else has the common key
[12-11 01:33] <einstein95> Most likely they're just running things through the Wii U's AES engine
[12-11 01:34] <GlitterBerri> mzxrules~
[12-11 01:35] <GlitterBerri> i kil u wit my mind
[12-11 01:35] <KeLopez> oh no
[12-11 01:35] <einstein95> Kargaroc: Knowing Twili, he just begged/blackmailed someone with the files
[12-11 01:36] <Kargaroc> not surprised

Of course the first thing you go for is Cia.

Lemme guess, butthurt hackers as usual? Why am I not surprised Kargaroc seems to be among those who are sore over a so-called leak? Those kind of people certainly aren't helping by associating with others who are among withholding outta the sake of pusillanimity. Who the hell cares if someone besides them has the common key, I mean really?

It is really not worth it randomizer. Deaf ears. We'll I should say "deaf" eyes, lol.

Butthurt, butthurt everywhere from those involved on that chat room, why am I not surprised?

Edit: Oh, by the way, I managed to download a Hyrule Warriors model from a certain site I refuse to name, fully UV mapped, with all the textures, .dae files, you name it And no, I will not divulge where I got it from just to spite those who did the ripping.

Twili, thanks for sharing your findings and stuff. I hope to mess with the models sometime if I ever have any spare time. I'm always busy! Anyway, keep up the great work and ignore anyone who says negative stuff to you

Thanks. Viewing and exporting the models to other formats is done, really, thanks to chrrox who has done work with other Warriors series in the past. I haven't updated the OP with his import plugin yet. Here's the very latest one, quoting him from FacePunch:

Ok I am off to bed now.
Here is the last post for now.
https://www.sendspace.com/file/0zoifs
i know there are a few very small models it won't open but 99% of models work
if you get this error on a few small models
WARNING: Weight contains an out of range bone index. Discarding model.
just comment out this line and it will load.
rapi.rpgBindBoneIndexBufferOfs(vertBuff, noesis.RPGEODATA_UBYTE, vtxStride, self.fvfInfo[self.grpInfo[a][2]][b][0], 4)

This version supports bones/rigging. You put it in the python folder in the scripts folder for Noesis and extract this to the scenes folder:

And here's Noesis:

If you're exporting a model as a Wavefront OBJ file, make sure to check "Flip UVs." I'm not sure if that is necessary for COLLADA .dae, which preserves the bones/rigging.

Certain meshes that use physics aren't positioned properly, so you'll have to move them after exporting.

Can you view mk8 tracks?

 

[Twili]

Can you view mk8 tracks?

Nope. I wasn't given them, and this import script is specific to Hyrule Warriors. We'll have to wait on the common key.

 

[FPSRussi4]

Is there any chance of getting my hands on Bayonetta 2 files? I would really like to have the gallery art available to me raw, planning on making a deck of the verse cards and it would obviously make life a lot easier to have the files on hand.

And other things too I bet

Reminder: Models ripped from Wii U games are still copyrighted material and as such cannot be shared here. So don't ask.

 

[Twili]

This was done by superdiddy34 on GameFAQs lmao.

 

[the_randomizer]

Well, that's...certainly...*ahem*

 

[ShiaZena]

The Great Fairy's leg looks like it is broken and shouldn't be pointed in that direction. Thanks for sharing though; that is a little bit frightening.

 

[Celice]

this fairy has my interest

 

[FPSRussi4]

Here's hoping we see more model manipulation like this, this is funny.

-censored this time according to Big Bro-Ahem, Gbatemp rules.

On GameFAQs, people were fussing over Koei making Zelda's boobs bigger in her TP costume, so I removed her necklace and took a pic.

 

[the_randomizer]

All I can say is DAYUM, Koei sure knows how to handle their *ahem* assets on their game models. Heh. I opened that model in 3DS Max, the model has over 25,000 polygons if I'm not mistaken.

So guys, I have szs files from NSLU, proof:

Spoiler

So, how can I rip the models?

Right-click the .szs file once you open it in that, and you'll be able to extract all of the files from it.
