Lets look into Soul Calibur 2 Model Ripping:THAT PESKY ROOT.OLK!

0
0
So I've noticed the lack of SoulCalibur model rips of other characters that aren't Ivy(I'm getting sick of seeing her damn face >_>) so I took it upon myself to attempt to look into ripping stuff from SoulCalibur 2.
I used the GC Rebuilder to look into the gamecube's iso and it seems the game's data is all in this root.olk file, the other files are just the opening and ending cutscenes, and the BGMList.

I've looked around google and it seems people have been able to get into the root.olk somehow,I've seen Ivy(TooManyFuckingTimes),Necrid,Cassandra, and Kilik ripped from SC2. I've been trying to contact the people who ripped these.....only to find out the last they logged in ever was over a year ago >_>
It also seems that both the Ps2/Xbox versions of the game also use the root.olk, I read someone trying to swap root.olk from the gamecube to xbox version but got nowhere.
It seems the DOA games use root.olk too and someone made a program for extracting files from them known as "GreedXplorer"
http://www.freewebs.com/dee4doa/toolsutilities.htm <------the download link
but I tried using this with SC2's root.olk but nothing happens, but at the same time I only have access to the gamecube version. Maybe it might work with the PS2 or Xbox versions.
Anyone else like to assist looking into this root.olk? It might be good to know for other games that use this format as well.
I'll try searching around abit more, but I don't think I'll find much on my own.

A little of my own custom texture

Oh well... I never expected to just come here to show you my improvements at texturing and animating... As I said long time ago, I normally prefer rigged models of creatures/monsters/animals even Meowser itself was included on my priorities... but... I never had confessed before Why I am interested on those models so badly.

Honestly, I usually love some kind of videos of those creatures doing some kind of paw licking/Claw Licking... Usually I choose the ones I like the most to animate doing that... even those that don't have a rigged tongue by itself... I solve it by modelling a custom tongue in C4D for models like Pokemon X/Y Eevee and similars.
But that's just a milestone, Yeah... I normally focus on my personal fetish. but sometimes I want to be one step beyond, and Eevee was a very important part of my little project. While I am a little tired of the Paw Licking shenanigams I tend to try other attempts at animating something very different. During these two years, I was really obsessed with a custom character of my own that I'm starting to love so much.

I call it... Dark Eevee G3.

It's the third generation of Dark Eevee... To be more precise... It's the third incarnation of the most powerful Bio-chimera. a creature made by mixing the DNA of a Biomutant, Aaroniero's Glotoneria and the blood of the most powerful Eevee ever known. the responsible of the creation of such abomination was a little guy called Guillermo Cortez Sinister. who had the main goal of making the most powerful evil creature possible... and he finally succeeded. by making a cute but yet cruel creature, that has the potential to keep growing stronger by just sucking the blood of her victims. Dark Eevee on her first incarnation was killed by Farlavor the mighty saviour of the worlds. the second one is still living in the present and stills be undefeated, but in the closer future, she will be betrayed by an ambitious guy called Kaloxylos, who kills her to obtain her powers. Dark Eevee manages to survive by forcing her own incarnation with one of her powers obtained on one of her previous hunts of living creatures. and after knowing that the Oblivion Conqueror Hescheckla is interested on recruiting her for his personal goals, after some doubts, Dark Eevee accepts to join him but with the only condition that she must kill Kaloxylos for revenge and suck all his blood.
Later on, after a second fight against Farlavor, she ends up almost killed since she's got poisoned by sucking the blood of her last victim, Scarface. Farlavor did almost kill her taking advantage of the poison constatly weakening her.
So Hescheckla had to solve it by modifying her DNA and putting her inside of a crysalis. Farlavor went on a mission of killing the crysalis to prevent Dark Eevee to reborn into a more powerful being, and was acompained with Tod and Sugiyama Yusei... but all of his efforts ended in failure and just came a few seconds late after finding the crysalis, and he just watched how Dark Eevee appeared with her new appearance and new powers... and will be at this moment that Dark Eevee G3 is born. afterwards, Farlavor, Yusei and Tod got totally beaten by Dark Eevee, but they were saved at last by Zeratul and James Raynor who came to rescue them (Yeah... I added characters from Starcraft 2 as well, besides this was planned to be a part of the Legacy of the Void Events  Cool )

With this kind of resumed Backstory, Dark Eevee G3 was my most favourite of all evil characters I ever created for my own RPG/Theatre/fanfiction
and of course, I was interested on making an animation of Dark Eevee G3 herself showing her powers in a scene. this project took me some months... Due for laziness and my computer being so slow and got broken and fixed several times. but yesterday I managed to make custom HI-RES textures of X/Y eevee, and modified them to make the closest resemblance to Dark Eevee G3. I added red claws on both front and back paws (As separated objects). and I had added 2 extra mouth movements for her Angry expression. 

I want to show you my progress at texturing and the making of Dark Eevee G3. Sadly it has some kind of little texture problems.
The scenes takes place a few days after the defeat of Amon on the Legacy of the void events. (According to my RPG history, so don't be confused just becuz I'm using Blizzard franchise characters for my personal stories and combining them with anime/videogame characters and universes as well)

[Image: vlcsnap-2015-03-05-16h22m19s180.png]

the video starts with Dark Eevee G3 enjoying the battle of Kaloxylos VS Farlavor (The battle started minutes ago and Farlavor is getting his butt kicked so badly), She was being so sarcastic at this part, but even so I love how she laughs... Look at her fangs and her eye patterns. The blue eye markings are a reference from the Biomutant eye design, Little Minos from Super Bikkuriman was a Biomutant and he has purple eye markings and he provided the DNA for Dark Eevee.
(The only problem is the emblem of her forehead... It was pretty messed up... but anyway... I think I gonna let it stay like that way until I learn how to fix it...  Shy)
the little blue scars on her face, are a ripoff from Toriko's Battlewolf/terry markings... just look at my avatar and you'll see those marks as well. Battlewolves in Toriko manga are supposed to be one of the eight strongest animal species in Gourmet world, Dark Eevee G3 have the attributes, abilities, traits, stats and skills from these wolves as well as other living beings from which she drank blood, a testimonial of her true potential for mass destruction.

"SO EPIIIIIIIIC!!!!!!!!" Dark Eevee happily screams in awe (She can talk). trying to trick us into believing she's enjoying. and we can notice her red cat like claws in the screenshot. Kawaiiiiiii  Cute

[Image: vlcsnap-2015-03-05-16h22m49s2.png]

After some seconds, Dark Eevee starts licking her right paw while yumming 
[Image: 57154644.jpg]
(It seems she still has some blood remains on her claws...)
Here you can see the custom tongue I created for Dark Eevee. the only problem at the moment is that the tongue itself isn't fully rigged... just acts as a separated object that has been linked to the head rigging. so I can only just move the tongue in or out. but it's more than enough just for the few seconds she licks her paw.


[Image: vlcsnap-2015-03-05-16h23m20s76.png]

after her 2 seconds of personal hygiene and a little moment enjoying the taste of blood, Dark Eevee started doing a retrospective talking about the situation. telling to Kaloxylos that SHE was fighting against Farlavor before he came to screw things up, even she still remembered her last defeat when she was poisoned by scarface's blood when she was almost dead and Farlavor was supposed to be HER prey. So stealing it is a really wrong idea.


[Image: vlcsnap-2015-03-05-16h23m50s87.png]


And after getting up, She gets really upset showing glowing red eyes and a very angry face.
Even called "Hoary haired twerp" to Kaloxylos since he have white hair.  Tongue  

[Image: Dark%20Eevee%20G3%20head%20tilt.jpg]

One of my most interesting scenes from my video.
Dark Eevee says at a really high state of berserker like rage "SHOULD I REPEAT IT???!!!!!, I DON'T ALLOW ANYBODY TO STEAL MY PREY!!!!!!!!!" as her head tilts nervously to her right as a real proof of her anger reaching it's paroxysm. 
Having tics? too caffeine on last blood feast?
Scaaaaaryyyyyyyyy.....  Cry

[Image: Dark%20Eevee%20G3%20columna%20de%20Shinra%20Tensei.jpg]

At this part, is when she finally becomes even more scarier, She is using her special power of combine two powerfull abilities into one to make her own custom ultimate attack... and believe me... it's one of the most ultimate powers on my entire RPG/Theatre/Fanfic history... It's the Shinra Tensei + Glotoneria.
Yeah... Pain's Shinra Tensei combined with Aaroniero's ability, it allows Dark Eevee to drain blood of whoever gets hit by the blast radius of Shinra Tensei, making her able to take everyone's abilities around the area while still being virtually untouched and the blast radius of her Shinra Tensei is even higher than Pain's. it's planned that when she does that attack, Kaloxylos and his henchmens survives but yet injured by the blast radius. forcing them to retreat and Dark Eevee get's tired after consuming her spiritual power and decides to take a rest for next hunt.

[Image: Dark%20Eevee%20G3%20Shinra%20Tensei%20Gl...ia%201.jpg]

(The red aura around Dark Eevee is the Shinra Tensei that manifested as a huge fire column, I usually get impressed at high energy/fire columns since I had a dream when I was being sucked by a column like tornado that shines like it was some kind of magic vortex made by a really powerful magician, I was paralized by fear and by the force of the vortex itself, it was a scary nightmare but it helped me getting the inspiration of awesome power showoffs  Big Grin )

[Image: Dark%20Eevee%20G3%20Shinra%20Tensei%202.jpg]

At this point, I hope there's no child looking at this screenshot, he or she might be traumated by just looking at Dark Eevee's face. Tongue

A Close up when Dark Eevee finally casts her Shinra Tensei Glotoneria, Following with the scene when the fire colum expands quickly destroying, blowing, killing and obliterating everything in it's path while Dark Eevee stands on the middle of the place. it's indeed a little glimpse of a possible apocalypse, almost like Lovecraft style. but with a touch of cuteness.

BTW: I must say that the dub is done by myself... and it's spanish dubbed. so maybe my comments about wathever Dark Eevee said isn't 100% exact. and the video is still in WIP, I only had done the first 1400 frames, and I managed to capture a few screenshots from the last +2600 remaining fotograms.

Sorry for the too long post. but you needed to know the backstory of my villain to understand it better. Big Grin
I hope you enjoyed it. and sorry for the time I did waste on your lives.  Sad

PS: For the people who didn't catched the reference I was using for this scene, I'll explain it was based on Episode 239 of One Piece, when Luffy and Franky was fighting each other and Galley la stopped the fight and attacked Luffy, of course with a little few excepcions, Dark Eevee was doing almost the same thing as Franky did to finish that battle with some slight variations, Franky was drinking sake while sat down in front of a table with his two girls, even throw the table along with the girls when got angry and used his Coup of Vent attack to knock out Pauly and his friends, and Dark Eevee simply was lying down the floor watching the battle, licked her right paw, gets up very angry, and destroys everything in sight with a big explosion. but with almost the same ending results as happened in the anime.

Help with PSP ripping

Hello,

For a while now, I've been trying to figure out how to rip models and resources from PSP games, more specifically the Yu-Gi-Oh! Tag Force games. Unfortunately, I keep running into a brick wall. I've looked up several tutorials and none of them seem to work. I've also tried using JCPSP, which I could never get to read any game I've tried to play on it, and a method I heard of a few years ago to take models from there, and also Noesis which split the PSP Rom into a whole bunch of files, none of which I could identify or could find program that could read the file type (I can't remember which file type, last time I tried to rip this was a few months back).

Does anyone have any tips or knowhow on how to rip models like this? I'm really lost and could use some help.

Note: I mainly use Mac but can also use Windows if needed. If possible though, I'd like to know if there is a Mac Method so I don't have to switch over.

Game Vs. Game! This week: Super Mario World vs Super Mario 64

basically, all you have to do is talk about how which game is "better." i say "better" because sometimes, this isnt the case. sometimes, it can be about whether the game made a bigger impact, its gameplay, or even sale numbers. whatever works really!

when you finish talking about each side, you then pick a side and write it as your last sentence. i specifically say the last sentence so that i can count each vote and show the results next week.

lastly, i urge you guys to discuss as much as possible! one sentence post saying why you like a game is generally boring. give us some insight on why you like the certain game!

this week is super mario world vs super mario 64! begin picking sides!

Hi everyone,
I'm trying to rip Radiata Stories models, and i followed this tutorial closely: http://www.vg-resource.com/thread-20541.html.
However, even with my video settings right, and having tried both 1.0 and 0.9.8 versions, i still only get the .gs file dumped in snaps. I use Windows 7 64-bit, and use a 2002 bios.
Any clue as to why i don't get the obj file?
Thanks!

Hey guys I've been doing a lot of sprite ripping for the Indie Horror game called Ib. The game's data is very heavily encrypted, but I managed to find a way to crack the encryption and rip the sprites out from the game. At first I only nabbed the character sprites, but I've been trying to get the rest as well. Here's what I've got so far!

Hello everyone,
I'm Kyalie, a French 26-year-old girl living in Montreal. I've got two cats, called Kilik and Hyôga (and only secondarily a boyfriend as well Tongue).
I mostly am a J-RPG player (MegaTen, Final Fantasy, Gust games...), but lately i've been trying to be less specific, by playing adventure games (Life is strange, Broken Age, Dreamfall Chapters...) or more 'action' games; Catherine, Super Mario 3d world, Drakengard 3 are the latest games i've been completely obsessed with.
I'm a big fan of the PS2 era in particular, and i ended up having to use PCSX2 because my french PS2 doesn't work with my canadian tv Sad It's actually for the better since most of the games look awesomely better when emulated.
I've been an admirer of this site for a long time, as a 3d artist and a spriter it's very very helpful, it teaches an awful lot, and i love the idea of being able to dissect the way some stuff was made!
One of my favorite game ever graphically speaking is Radiata Stories, and i really wish i could help fill the dedicated section - if i get the programs to rip the models working B| (this is why it's 3AM and i'm still not sleeping).

As for what i do for a living, I'm a 3d character artist, a freelancer, although i've working in several companies as well (Gameloft, Behaviour, if any of these ring a bell). I also do spriting and artworks for a personal 2d RPG, called "Lije". You can see some of my stuff here if you're interested.


Mmh, that's pretty much it!
Oh yeah and for the obligatory question any Final Fantasy fan is to be asked: my favorite one is FF9, although i believe FF7 is the best one o/

We have all played many video games, some of us too many to count. We also met some pretty cool characters, played as them, and beat the game to 100% with em. We were introduced to the gaming world by those characters. We've ripped em from their games and posted them on this site too. We all have that one character that we just know and love all too well. Who is your video game hero? Explain how you got to know the character and what made you like them the most, it could be abilities, personality, the style of the character, whatever. Take your pick! Be descriptive.

So I am working on a space shooter with a buddy of mine, I am doing the graphics, while he does the coding.
Problem is, I've never really worked on a space theme style ever, so I may need some critique.
[Image: Aon1DZG.png]
Here is just a generic space background I made, I will expand up on it by adding more so the screen can scroll and display new objects in the background. Here's also a font and a border I made, not a whole lot here really.

And here are the ships, the ships on the left are the playable ships, on the right are some enemy ships, and asteroids.
And at the bottom of the playable ships are just two small tests, a Galaga ship, and an Arwing.

Where could I find music critiques?

0

Does anyone know some good places on the internet where one can seek out music critiques? I feel that I've hit a wall as far as my composition skills go, and in order to improve I'd need to get some critiques. You know, a place like the "Custom Spites / Pixel Art" forum with a nice blend of professional and amateur artists.

I've considered posting on the OCRemix forums, but that site feels really intimidating to me because the professionals there are waaay out of my league. Are there any newbie-friendly places out there for people just starting out? I've played music for several years so technical jargon isn't a problem for me.
