BigBellies’ HSF File Ripping Tutorial

[BigBellies]

Hello everyone, BigBellies here again. Sorry it’s been so long.

I was just having major difficulty with model ripping as of late. So now, I’m going to try and struggle with with model ripping from hsf files from the games that have them.

I will even share my tutorial on how to get those models to help those in need of how the models got ripped in T pose like lemurboy12 did.

Evening everyone.

A guest gave me a URL for a tool that might help solve thr HSF model file mystery, but it only lead to a dead end.

Do not go to this one: https://github.com/Ploaj/Metanoia&hellip

Woops. Apparently there was a typo.

BigBellies here again.

I’m starting the tutorial at taking out files from Mario Party 4 using Dolphin Emulator, and checking everywhere on Github for tools to look into the bin files to where the models are hiding

Apparently the guest that sent me the URL for the tools to look into Mario Party 4’s HSF model files was none other than lemurboy12.

I'm doing my best to get the HSF files to show us how lemurboy12 got the models to be in an exact T pose and all, but I had used some mpintools I found in Github to get them.

Now, I can't find a useful tool to make the HSF file show my the models.
I tried a Blender script I download from an old post, but it doesn't show the script to run.

Hello everybody.

I believe I have figured out how to rip the models from the GameCube-Wii Mario Party 4 to 8 hsf files.

First you use bin2dump to place the selected bin files you extracted from the selected Mario Party game you want to rip models from. Then, you use Metanoia to take a look into the HSF files to find the model you want to rip.

Some may not show the models at all, but keep looking. Aim for the ones that have big KB data. The models should be there.

That is how was I able to find the Mushroom Genie’s model below.

I can't find bin2dump anywhere and this is the only thread on this forum that mentions it. Could you please post a link to the site you got it from? (Or a google drive link if you still have it.) Thanks in advance.
