Possible to rip Super Mario Odyssey stages? - UnlockedAnimation - 06-03-2019
Hello all!
I'm brand new to the scene of model/sprite ripping, but I love what you guys have done over at the Models Resource and Spriters Resource.
If you couldn't tell by my username, I'm an animator, and I recently had an idea for a Super Mario story.
I downloaded the ripped models of Mario, Luigi, Peach, and Bowser from Super Mario Odyssey and was really happy with the rigging setup and how the models looked in Blender 2.8 (save for a few things that I fixed myself).
My biggest problem was trying to find a model of Peach's Castle that I could use. I was wondering if it was possible for the Mushroom Kingdom stage from SMO to be ripped for me to use, so I did my research on the various tools I would need.
But my real question is this: is it possible to rip full stages from Super Mario Odyssey as 3D models? If they come in multiple parts that's completely fine, I just want to know if it's possible.
Reason I'm asking is because for me to use the models from SMO without getting into any legal trouble, I realized I would have to sink approximately $210 into getting another Switch tablet for homebrew and the SMO cartridge (because I refuse to put homebrew on my current Switch while risking getting banned in online play). I would then dump the game and extract the models from it and use them in my animations. However, I want to make sure that it's completely possible before I try to do this.
I did notice the Fossil Falls Dinosaur Nest and The Odyssey Interior as approved models on the Models Resource, and the Peach's Castle Interior and the Ruined Kingdom as pending models, so I was thinking that it was possible, but I just need clarification especially as I want to rip an entire world as the Mushroom Kingdom.
Thanks!

I haven't a clue, it should be possible, since they mostly "float" in the air (New Donk City).
