The VG Resource

OK, this is a rather old PC MMO, but it's still running. Thing is we don't even have a section for it under PC>G.

This thread encourages members to change this, if even for 3D archival purposes. it is an old game and who knows how long aeriagames will keep it running. So far so good. but lets not take any chances, lets rip and archive it's resources.

Goal: Collect resources from Grand Fantasia (Aeria Games MMO)

Priorities:
Characters:
Rip all NPC models.
Rip Sprite/helper models

Enemies:
Rip all enemies

Items:
Rip all chests, armor and weapons

Mounts:
Rip all mounts.



2nd priorities:
Rip all zone maps
Rip character bases for player created characters; Faces, hair etc.

Anyone can help. I might peck away at it, but, honestly it's been years since I ripped anything, I'm mostly used to ripping N64 stuff. So this is a challenge.

Format, the primary format we will use will be .obj with importable textures(UV's saved as much as possible).

Feel free to get ahead of me or take charge of this project, lets just get it done.

Hey friend, there's a private server called Grand Fantasia Infinity, been ripping the assets individually only to find out the gloves, pants, boots and anything not externally meshed is actually hard coded and outside of the .nif models i've been translating to .obj, they also come with a texture with base wrap as color and alpha transparency, most of it was a wrap on a sheet, not even basic shapes were done on them, which was pretty disappointing given all the trouble.

The new steam rerelease is all encoded and i haven't been bummed with trying to rip it yet, do let me know if you ever find a way and i can command my autism to do the manual labor o/
