[SnakePlisskenPMW]

comrades
, my name is snake plissken, i am chief commander of a group known as the pmw nation, im currently heading our development department in developing a video game for multiple platforms including the PS3 cfw interface, the Wii homebrew channel interface, and the PSP ofw- as well as a windows .exe exactable .

to go into further detail, our game will run perfectly with in these systems and feature 3 online multiplayer mods, universal mode, TDM, and co-op story mode. As well as the enriched cinematic FPS story mode.

our game will use a engine that in itself we designed, our teem took latest releases of the GZDOOM open source engine and used it as our canvas, as we heavily re mastered mostly every inch of its structure. now we have a great homebrew engine that can be used to develop homebrew for the PS3 outside of a PSL1GHT environment. This alone will change everything.

the game's details have not even been released to the public, infect this is the most in-depth i have went into, on the matter, only because I wish to get things done.
we hoped to use great models, and the game in itself being based of of events taking place in the world of the 1989 film (featuring Kurt Russell as snake plissken):Escape from New York, on this basis we wished to use a ripp model of BIG BOSS (naked snake) from MGS Peace Walker prefibly due to the fact that we need in the end a .md3 model. Certain limitations come in hand, low poly count would be nice. And .obj is the most friendliest format to convert to frame based animation models such ad mdl, md3, md2, md5, ect.

and modify that, to bare resemblance to Kurt Russell, using our knowledge with blender and other modeling programs as well as the .md3 format
using this end product as our snake plissken model. Our main player model.
Well in conclusion we have failed in the end at certain things and are resorting working with other great minds with the respect to entail them in all forms of our productions creditorials, and contact these people like you guys, ( I love you guys btw. Idk, just to get that out, I admire your work.), in a attempt to find models out there that we could maybe use... For our game…

Now i have tried to obtain a naked snake, big boss model for a wile, pref. versions of naked snake from peace walker… we would like to have all possible snake models to use and decide from but that is what it is loll. Can always get what yaw want.


In the end im a big metal gear fan, I love your guys work, I have followed your threads for ages, and the time has come for me to do something to see to it that I can get these models in great use. As my work is something of “prime” with in most every ps3 hacking community. Upon its release it will make such a splash, not to sound egotistical but one can google PS3 FPS homebrew for themselves and see… or just “PMW” or “PMW NATION” for that matter, but none the less when my project is released, it will be installed on every custom firmware out there, with a online multiplayer experience that will join on platforms, this surly will be a great thing.

Seeing how this game will be everything “Snake” I want to see these models used in it. It will single handing be the greatest thing one could apply these models towards, your work would be admire by the 8% of the 77 billion PS3 owners that have cfw installed on there PS3s. Think about this comrades and reply to me… we will talk and work together… before you know it, greatness will be made!

Have you seen this thread on Facepunch?
That was the official release of the package mentioned in this thread. The rest of FRANKASTER's work was being done in this thread, and inspired two people to do the same, with one person making a dedicated website (which is currently empty.)

I may as well tell you all about the different methods of obtaining models from games of the Metal Gear Solid series:

• For obtaining textures from the PC version of MGSI, you can use Unmass to extract them from the archives within the game. Perfect black usually signifies transparency for these textures. The game's archives are easily accessible by renaming the .mgz files extensions to .zip and opening accordingly. Sound effects and such are found raw within the archives. Also, neko68k was working on a model exporter for the game.
• For obtaining models from MGSTTS, through Dolphin you can merge the capture data of 3DVia Printscreen (results in unposed, UV-less models) and 3D Ripper DX (results in posed, textured and UV'd models) to create a perfect model capture. Also, Solidus can extract textures from this game's archives.
• For obtaining models from the PC and PS2 versions of MGS2, you can use Solidus to convert UV'd models and textures within the game's archives. These models come without bones, however.
• For obtaining models from MGS3, you will need to experiment with various model capture programs (such as the ones mentioned in the Game Specific Model Ripping guides topic under TSR's Model Discussion sub-forum) through PCSX2 using their corresponding plugins. The models are without bones/UVs and usually distorted, though. When capturing textures from PCSX2 using 3D Ripper DX, the R and B colour values of the captured texture must sometimes be swapped (like this method I posted) to produce correct colouring.
• For obtaining models from MGS4, chroxx was working on a model import plugin for 3D Studio Max.
• For obtaining models from MGS PSP games, you can use drakon's psplamb plugin on a real PSP to capture them with UVs. For textures, you can run the PSP game through JCPSP and use the texture debugger to gain access to and copy the game's textures from memory.

...I hope some of these methods serve of use to you if you find no other resources. Good luck to your team's project.

Could someone possibly rips the audio phrases peace walker says when you are fighting her for me please?

Can't request anything until you have 20 posts. It's against the rules.

Reason for that being we don't want people joining just to ask for stuff.

Sorry my bad.
Is anybody working on any game projects or videos using the mgs models? I mean an mgs based story by the way.

[SnakePlisskenPMW]

its a shame the the plisken models didnt make it to he final version, could of realy saved time if there was a snake model without a bandanna, im not requesting anything lol, just exspressing the time consuming diffculty of ettempting and failing over and over again in extracting a half way decent model, to then be pacthed and fix, cause no extraction is perfect, so i could use this as the basis of my Game's main player model. ill stay on this fourm and once i come up with some further questions perhaps i can shoot'em on threw this here... or maby to the new thread that was established...

it also looks like frank posted a picture of big boss from peace walker displaying possible content from the model pack, and yet... it isnt in the moddel pack.... didnt make the cut for some reson?

[ahrimanes]

hey..im new here.. i got registert causes i read you guy can get models in tpose.. i have done some test on wii games "dolphin emu" and edvia but the models came posed.. soo

How can i get the models in Tpose "unposed" ??? are you guys using 3dvia screen print? ore its another software ?

[Shadowth117]

This ain't the thread to be asking that just so you know, but I'll try to answer that. 3d Via Printscreen has a feature that allows it to dump models in Tpose from certain games. A lot of times though models are dumped either directly from their source files or reposed from an animated pose in order to get a bind pose.

Here I believe they used 3D Via IIRC.

The model pack was to include only models from MGS:TTS, so there is currently no knowledge of what will be done with the PSP models FRANKASTER ripped. I'm pretty sure he wrote that he had considered putting them into a seperate pack, though.

[SnakePlisskenPMW]

okay, i see, intreasting. well hell do what he will with the PSP rips, though i would sugjest him to pack it up, only becuse his work is so well respected-
im intrested in low poly models for my homebrew production on the ps3- i obtained franks models and would of used them but in the end it seems that the model format i produced with the engine is to restricted being .MD3, and i can not convert frank's into the model formatt i need, due to there high poly count. i would need a low poly count so if he was to ever release the psp model pack, i would most likely use those models; wile giveing him full creditorals threw out its production for sure as i orignaly planed to do for the other models.

at the same time im working on my own Snake Plissken model inspired by all the Snakes out there, Plissken, Plisken, Solid, Big boss, perhaps ill post some pictures somewhere on sprits once it is more completed...

hi Friedslick6 i would ask u if solidus really works with the ps2 version of MGS 2 , because i tried long time ago with no result. Actually the site with solidus tool is down. I have the special disk of mgs2 in which are present all the 3d charaters , an internal viewer and some versions of metal s snake not used in the game...i tried with 3d ripper and 3dvia but with no results. The main problem i s the .dat files in the ps2 version seem to be encripted. Do u have any idea?
