One of the best mods I ever downloaded, I always thought about the potential this game series had with having talented modders such as yourself work on them. Thank you for the amazing work, keep it up :)
Thanks Dude :) i really want to learn how to make movesets! also could we get the akiyama model swap please? :) or release a tutorial thanks for the hard work!
i got it working by extracting all files from chara.par with quickbms and reimport swapped models (gmd files). (i converted the gmd 3d models and load them with noesis to take a closer look) actual i failed on editing the textures, found plugin for dx10 .dds files for photoshop (Intel Texture Works)...but seems i do not save them in a working .dds file. game stopped loading.
Yes, but some of the models have different bones hence they won't be perfect. I.e. when I tried to reimport Akiyama back to the game, his right leg was missing... do you have a fix for that?
from what i found out for now is that quickbms can only "uncompress" the game files wen extracting and not "recompress" wen reimport to the game. i checked for you the model of akiyama and the file is to big to insert total. seems your missing leg is just cutted file. i tested with c_am_daigo and it worked fine, need daigo's face and shoes too.
as long as there is no compressor out for the sega files, it is hard to mod the games. even the .dds files are compressed. on github are several lz77 compressor, one claimed to work with "old" sega/nintendo files. but i did not test them or have the time to compile them for testing. if you have time and fun doing this, that can be the answer.
if you mod this file: c_am_kiryu i can only insert other models with max. filesize of 1.7MB to fit in the original compressed space in chara.par as example i used to swap: "c_am_daigo" to "c_am_kiryu" to get full working the shoes and face need to swap too...but it is a good start to test :)
