Tomb Raider Anniversary DRM files

Post by nightwolf1982 »

I'm wanting to extract the models from TR Anniversary, but I can't find any DMR tools that work. The only tools I've found are here: https://github.com/Gh0stblade/cdcEngineTools/releases, but none of the releases extracts any useful files.

Another tool I've read of is gibbed.tombraider.drmedit, but I can only find a couple of GitHub project files, and only one of those compiles to a working program (which won't load TRA drms).

Does anyone have any ideas?

Does anyone have the gibbed.tombraider.drmedit program Ekey linked to?

OK, took a look at the Anniversary DRMs and I think I've found the Model files, but there's a problem:

From what I can tell there's some kind of encryption/compression present, even though the drm is NOT encrypted or compressed.

OK, last ditch effort to get some help here, I've uploaded the drms for Lara and Doppleganger. I believe the models are stored at the 5043443915000000 points in the files, as that value is similar to the Magic value from the Legend models, which is 5043443918000000.

OK, some new info. I've been so busy comparing TR Anniversary and TR Legend, it never occurred to me to compare Anniversary to UNDERWORLD. And guess what? while there are some differences in the drm format, Anniversary and Underworld share something in common: the 5043443915000000 value. So maybe Anniversary's models are closer in format to Underworld than Legend. If so, maybe it might be possible to modify Gh0stblade's tools to detect the and extract the mesh data?

Ok, scratch that previous post. I'm really at my wits end here. At this point, aftr extracting and comparing files for days, I'm starting to think there just aren't any model files IN the Anniversary drms. Has anyone else even looked at the samples posted?
