Trying to solve this one without manually doing each one with Model Researcher. I managed to pull a few of them here awhile back.
viewtopic.php?f=23&t=12918

To get them i had to merge the ibuf and vbuf into 1 file. Im not sure to get the model to work correctly if the .model part is needed but it might be.


Been awhile but i did still have this if it helps

I would like to know if there is away to parse this data more efficiently ? Thanks in advance.

I've had a look, and yes the .model file does contain info on each sub-mesh - the bits that include the text "SurfaceData" are the sub-mesh info sections.

I can see things like start face, face count and start vertex values for the data in the ibuf and vbuf files.

I can also see that Joschka did a basic Noesis script a while ago, but didn't take into account the separate sub-meshes in the .model file. I'm not 100% sure how the structure of that file works, but I'll have a proper look at it when I get some time, if nobody has already done a proper script!
