Zero Time Dilemma (*.std)

[Doctor Loboto]

Hey all, we got the archives decompressed and such. Textures are plain DDS, but the models are something entirely new. They are extension ".std" with "ORB" header. I need to convert them to something useful, plain OBJ works for me.

*repost from other thread*

first big submesh


face count is the 2 bytes before face indices start address or after the FC byte
go back 6 bytes from vertex block start address to read vertex stride byte just before the FD byte and the
length of vertex block is the 4 bytes after the FD byte
divide length by stride to get number of vertices

Er...well I guess it's good news it's not compressed or anything, but I can't really use hex2obj effectively myself...that being said this is currently the only model from it that I need.

Hi
i work on it. here is progress.


Updated 2016-07-09:
Here is a blend file for importing models and animations.
Install Blender 249b and Python 26 - all 32bits.
Doubleclick file Blender249.blend
In Blender Text Window press alt+p and select:
-std file - for models or for extract animations
-anim file - animation from animfiles folder

Some meshes you must manual transform. Models use transform matrices for vertex groups . I don't know how create this matrices.

[Doctor Loboto]

Oh, awesome! Can't wait to see the resulting project completed!

Can I see the script you used? How on earth were you able to determine the start addresses? I see strings like "Base Pelvis", but that's much earlier in the file than you've indicated in the screenshot (0x250).

Where are the anim files at?
I do not see "animfiles folder" in the game files.

[Szkaradek123]

There are folders like "s00aa1" or "s22zd1".
Go there and select too std file. Blend file "unpack" std file to anim files to new animfiles folder.

I don't want to joint all animations in one, so i create new files for import single animation.

[Doctor Loboto]

There is one problem, sometimes the UV's don't come out. For example on the sample file I supplied, there's no UV's for the upper body, though they are present in your images...

Hi,

With you blender script, it is possible to modify the .std file for re-importing this file in the .cfsi file ?
Because we my team I make a french translation. But some text are in .dds file and we want to change the size of the selected area for text, but this area is computed in the .std file.

This image shows the new area that I want to save in the .std

Do you think it is possible ? I write my own script for re-importing the different file, so is not a problem for me if the size of .std is bigger than the original one.

[Doctor Loboto]

Is there any sure way to retain UV's for all pieces? The sample file I posted seemed to convert fine in your 'progress' images, but when I convert it, the upper body is missing UVs.

[Szkaradek123]

Install Blender 249b and Python 26 - all 32bits.
Doubleclick file Blender249.blend
In Blender Text Window press alt+p and select:

Did you make this steps ? Are you sure you are using all files from this importer ?
You must "Doubleclick file Blender249.blend", else can't help you.

Could someone please give me more detailed instructions? Every time I try to use this I get this message

edit- Nevermind, figured out the problem. I didnt copy the "newgamelib" folder into the scripts folder.

[Adrot]

All models look low quality. As in, low polygon. Is that normal?

[Siengried]

How do you excract that files? Everytime i get the same error that have imlame too... Can someone helps me?
