Wangan Midnight PS3 models (.car .whl .dat .mdl etc)

[UndercoverBoy833]

follow-up topic after I extracted Wangan Midnight PS3 archive using TXRExtractor, you can check the topic thread if you want:

so I came across various files which are model/texture related. Is there any way to rip them to a readable form?

"Yepyes, yes Based on your sample file, this doesn't seem difficult. I downloaded your 'cha_akio' file and unzipped it. It's in mdl format. Since you mentioned it's a game for the PS3 platform, we used a hexadecimal editor to inspect it. The structure is quite simple; you can quickly see in just 30 seconds that it's a separable, or continuous, structure. It labels various index files for the mesh. All you need to do is input according to the prompts. Here are some preliminary speculations:"

I found those solutions. I have to install 3ds max, because there's a plugin made by mariokart64n published in deviantart and it works perfectly even I'm using 2024 3ds max. So just all you have to do is install 3ds max on your PC, download the ms script, run it and voila you got the script working to import Wangan Midnight PS3 assets.

I do have the game, but it's better to find it yourself since I cannot tell you where I got the game from because I have to maintain the rules of not condoning game piracy.

It's okay, but would it be okay if you shared some raw and unripped files of the cars and tires soon? 🙂

Perhaps you should send me the game via private message. I need to download it to create a PS3 game mod.
