Last view: 4071 days 		So i'm hacking metroid prime

pic of progress


I got the basic vertexes showing, but I have no real experience with 3D, I know that normal coords, uv stuff, and primitive data is in the model files. But I have NO clue what they look like.

So if anyone would like to help.

Drop me a line or post here.

Please have actual 3D haxing experience.

note:
I know the data exists in these files, others have shown their own progress, but won't release their tools in fear of copyright violations or whatever and some I just can't contact so i'm hoping for people that can recognize the formats and stuff

Just the idea of hacking Metroid Prime is awesome... think of the possibilities!

But it'd have to be incredibly extensive, and it's no doubt incredibly difficult. I'd help out if I could, but I doubt I could do anything of importance except help design some stuff, like rooms and areas. :|

Last view: 4071 days 		Got blending and all that stuff working. So new screenshots.
Tomorrow i'll take a look at material defs seeing as how I now know lighting is controlled in there.

The viewer is officially called MPxViewer.
Revl8n is taking a look at the animation stuff right now, hopefully we can finish CMDL soon, and move on to other things.

There's a surprise at the end XD

Beta Gravity
Yes, there is more to the inside, it's just that circle textured. We never see inside it...I wonder why they felt the need to texture it




Basic MP2 support.
Material Definitions and other bugs are plaguing MPxViewer for now, support will be added of course.

Last view: 4071 days 		Shameless self bump

Honestly i've had enough of the CMDL format, we'll probably get back to eventually, but models render amazingly.

But in this update, you'll see that we have a tree view now, it needs a bit more work. XD

But raw texture viewer is now implemented, and a skeleton viewer is too!




Samus's skeleto
some cool looking texture.

Y'gotta like how Samus' right arm is just... missing. Makes total sense when you stop to think about it...

* Kawa grabs a copy of this for later study.

Aww, no downloads ._.

That's what I thought when I first saw that. It's really quite obvious...

Last view: 2972 days 		Does the game count it as a separate weapon, not just model? Could you make you hack where you need to find and equip it? That isn't a request, just a question.
