Sega Dreamcast 3D Ripping method? - MadkaT - 01-06-2014

Hello, I'm interested in rip some 3D models from fighting stages but as far a I read on the internet seems to be difficult/impossible to rip from Dreamcast emulators, I have Demul and NullDC emulators, can someone guide me or make a recomendation from a 3d ripper? I don't need animations, only the model and texture dump to remake them. Thanks in advance 4 reading.

Well I can vouch for the difficult to rip bit. I have used a ripper called 3d dx ripper in combination with noesis to convert the ripped models into a useable format like SMD.

Now unfortunately, the models wind up coming out as flat as paper so you will have to "Re-inflate" the model.


For the texturesI use the same program, but a different key so that I can get the textures that the model rip misses.
