Hello, my comrades. I've recently been interested in extracting and porting models from the GameCube version of The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. Almost every single one of them have worked flawlessly, except for one little model.
The model in question is known as 'kusa (草)', or grass in English. I'm almost certain that this is the correct file I'm looking for, as the first stage contains 112 references to the entity. (It may be worth noting that the entity is referred to by the title of kusax1, kusax7, and kusax21 in these and almost all other circumstances.) For some reason whenever I try to decrypt it using yaz0 or some .rarc dumper the program inexplicably crashes.
What's even more peculiar is that the model doesn't even seem to exist in the game files of the Wii U version (or if it does, it's renamed.) I've heard rumors that the foliage models are, in fact, a singular plane with textures applied. This seems practical -- and quite likely, at that -- but what's strange is that the models refuse to export at all. The attempts that do are completely futile and produce only a small 1 kb bmd file, of which contains nothing.
It would be wonderful if one of you fine gentlemen who inhabit this realm could attempt to dig something feasible out of this. I went ahead and attached the kusa.arc file for ease of access. Thanks in advance!
