Thank you very much. 

could you please add UVs support?

not quite sure about uvs, try ofs 17 for U and ofs 21 for V, (all as Short) 

sample for 4e153346.SGGR

Thank you, I’m not very familiar with Noesis and Python, but I’ll try to figure it out. I have another question: how can I split a model into segments, like by a specific material or texture?

 

In addition to the basic textures, the game has static shadow map, maybe this map in UV2? Or planar projector shadow in the map, created game engine?

the engine is always the same for both polarbit games and pixelbite, but some of them have model files in .dat format that weren't renamed

Thanks, I'll see it.

 

Updated noesis script, added partial support UV`s, this does not work completely correctly, the UV size has to be set manually.

Thank you very much @Durik256 for your help

I edited and checked.

Now its works

There are several problems: 
 - With the type of meshes, it seems that in the example of street lights and electric lines, the script reads the Lod model. (The second screen example is a 3d ripper, but the UVs are also broken.)

- Also with read the size of the UVs
