Hacking [Release] BFRES Texture Injector

[mariosonicds]

This is yet another tool for injecting textures into X game. This follow suit to my nut injector but formats are a bit more obscure... so i added a feature to inject similar formats. Best bet is to use AMDCompress to output a png and export to dds if supported.

******************************
*You need your own copy of TexConv2*

No this is built around the Wii U in mind.... That's why there is "texconv2 is required"

Edit: Can't you just make a texture pack for dolphin.....

Could you upload your luigi skin with the folders in tact as an example bro?
Thanks.

Cafiine is better. Because you can change a whole game. But nice stuff tho. ^^

Have you tested Splatoons BFRES format? NWPs Texhax had some problems with that, just getting crashes when going ingame. I'll try yours later.

 

[mariosonicds]

Well, what do you want me to edit?

Spoiler: Img

Because idk what nwplayer was editing?

 

[CPCM]

I want you to edit this.
content/Model/Clt_First_M.szs

 

[aracom]

Yep, the first shirt is the bfres in content/Model/Clt_First_M.szs. We tried to edit them manually too, but with no success. Although I don't know if NWP tried any other methods.

 

[mariosonicds]

Well, when I get home I'll give it a go. From the looks of it, there is a large portion in ati2n and ati1n. I had my way with these before, but I did not get a crash but a messed up texture. But T shirts should have bc1 or dtx1 for there color map.

Tried to extract textures from that file, seems broken, pdn and photoshop all either crash(photoshop...) or say that there was a unknown error. Windows Texture Viewer can display 0, 1, 2 and 4, but the normal map in 3 gets me another crash :/

Did you try amdcompress. Photoshop uses old dds standard. Kinda went over that in the quick tutorial.

 

[aracom]

That gives me different results, 0, 1 and 4 are working, 2 says "Image Format Is Not Supported" and 3 works but definitely doesn't look right.

 

[mariosonicds]

3 that's right. It's a depth map or a reflection map. The big chunks are compression artifacts.

Edit: what are you editing?

 

[aracom]

Edit: what are you editing?

/Model/Clt_First_M.szs from splatoon, it's a bfres in a szs compressed sarc archive.

 

[mariosonicds]

Hmm well I'm going to be back at comp soon.

Not necessarily, Cafiine doesn't add any extra locks when sending files so if it doesn't wait and it tries to send it over the network like Sploon does with map models then it's gonna crash :\ Loadiine assures that files have been completed before moving on so you do need it for some things

I've only ever got it to work with clothes which is odd, no animated/complex models have ever worked.

Looking foward for vertex editing for splatoon characters too
