Converting a PSK and Keeping the Rigging

[josh98]

Yah. Title say's it all. I want to convert a PSK, with ALL the Rigging Intact, But I don't know how. I tried converting it with Neosis to Collada. that didn't work...

Since I am guessing that you are using BrawlBox to convert models around at first (from Wii formats), I would recommend using BRRESViewer's "Export to MD5MESH" option. I've used it for all my Wii model rips, and the rigging always stays perfect.

BRRESViewer is an older program, so here's a copy of it.

Ok, I got it thanks.

(Does Collada Support Bones? I keep the rigging only in SMD format.)

[John2k4]

Yes, Collada supports bones.
OBJ is the only one allowed for submission here that does not support them.

Oh, ok. well I can't find out how to export sonic with rigging intact to Collada Format.

[John2k4]

Are you exporting it from a BRRES?

When I export Wii models, (Let's use K:RtDL's DeDeDe as an example) I would use that method to convert them to Collada DAE, and the rigging would stay..

Going from BRRESViewer...


Exporting to MD5MESH.
Opens in Noesis with proper rigging.


Exported to a Collada DAE with default settings...



...and the rigging is kept.

[josh98]

Ok XD I was doing it right all along, but my DAE viewer wasn't showing it

Thanks Alot Man

Ok, mods. You guy's can Close this Now.

Okie dokie! I never use BrawlBox. BRRES Viewer is more reliable IMO.
