I might be giving something away concerning my knowledge level with this kind of stuff but I must say I have very little idea what you guys are actually doing (I think game models are being ripped and/or modified but I'm not certain). I had to unsubscribe from this thread a few weeks ago because I cannot follow what's going on.
That said, I hope you guys are making good progress on whatever it is that you're working on! Keep up the hard work!
From what I remember, some of us are trying to extract the original character and weapon model files for the purpose of Pepping, and some are trying to locate the textures for rendering (possibly) their armor loadout.
For now, it's an uphill battle, considering my noobtastic abilties with command prompts and the inner workings of programs and such.
And I have to admit, I was having trouble following Gaaramasa's advice. Then he showed me some tutorials, and I'm back to learning again.
My aim is to take weapon files, and some armors too, and clean them up and make them peppable, which is tough considering the level of polys and triangles. All credit shall go to where it is due. And so far, Epic is the main-man when it comes to the credit chain.
Thanks to all of those who are interested, you give us inspiration to move forward. And thank you, Satchmo. You've been awesome.
I am still currently working on the weapons, so I'll keep you all posted.
Oash-Koash, out.
