DAT (Platinum Games)

2014-10-23T16:26:06Z

Mystie:

'''DAT''' is a package common in all games developed by Platinum Games (excluding ''[[Infinite Space]]''), containing models, textures, and sometimes animations. The encryption method seems to differ throughout each game, although it seems that everything from ''[[Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance]]'' onwards uses the same formatting.

==Conversion Tools==
===[[Noesis]]===
Noesis can extract/convert models and textures from ''[[Bayonetta]]'' and ''[[Vanquish]]'', as both of these games use similar encryption methods. Support for other Platinum games are either very buggy, or completely incompatible.

===[https://yadi.sk/d/ITWXXzuoFtZ7X MGRRTools]===
MGRRTools contains a set of tools used to convert models and textures from ''[[Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance]]''.

==List of Games Using the Format==
* ''[[Anarchy Reigns]]''
* ''[[Bayonetta]]''
* ''[[Bayonetta 2]]''
* ''[[Legend of Korra: The Video Game]]''
* ''[[Madworld]]''
* ''[[Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance]]''
* ''[[Vanquish]]''
* ''[[The Wonderful 101]]''

==Notes==
* ''Metal Gear Rising'' and ''Legend of Korra'' both use the same encryption/formatting. [http://comments.deviantart.com/1/490007947/3639311403] Seeing as how ''The Wonderful 101'' and ''Bayonetta 2'' started and finished development inbetween these two, this presumably means that they, too, use the ''Metal Gear Rising'' encryption. Make sure to look into it once Wii U ripping/hacking goes public.

Mystie:

'''Platinum Games''' is a company that was founded in 2006 by several former members of the defunct Capcom studio, Clover. Platinum has made some of the most critically-acclaimed action games of all time, but all of them except for ''Bayonetta'' and ''Metal Gear Rising'' have been commercial flops.

The file systems for their games all seem to follow the same structure, and most of them share the same file types. However, each game seems to use a different method of encryption for its model/texture files (sans ''Vanquish'', which uses the same exact encryption method as ''Bayonetta'').

Skies of Arcadia

Mystie:

{{Gameinfo
| title= Skies of Arcadia
| developer= Overworks
| publisher= Sega
| systems= [[:Category:Dreamcast Games|Dreamcast]], [[:Category:GameCube Games|Gamecube]]
}}
'''''Skies of Arcadia''''' is a role-playing game published by Sega, developed by Overworks, and released for the [[Dreamcast|Sega Dreamcast]] in 2000. It later received an enhanced port for the [[Gamecube|Nintendo Gamecube]] in 2003, which featured a number of bonus features, and tweaks such as less random encounters.

==File Formats==
* '''.afs''' (Sound package)
* '''.mld''' (Model/Texture/Animation package)

==Ripping Tutorials==
===Models===
# Open Noesis and browse to where the files are located.
# Double-click on a model file to open it. The model should appear in the window, and if available, its animations will also be playing.
# Right-click on the file of the model you just opened, then choose "Export" from the drop-down list. A dialog window should appear.
# Choose the formats you want to export the model and textures as, choose the directory you want to extract them to, check the "No animations" checkbox (optional), then click the "Export" button. Once it is finished, you should get a message saying, "Export complete." Click the "OK" button, then click "Close".

For more information, view the [[Noesis]] portion of this wiki.

==Notes==
* Noesis is compatible with the Dreamcast version only. It is also only compatible with a .gdi dump of the game; a dump of the game in other formats (i.e. .cdi) will not work.
* The bones seem to be quite glitchy when exporting, so it would be best to export the models as .obj instead.

Klonoa (Wii)

2014-09-01T16:05:14Z

Mystie: It's actually a .bin file, not a .brres. That's why it's easier to dump the textures via Dolphin.

{{Gameinfo
| title= Klonoa
| developer= Paon
| publisher= Bandai Namco
| system= Wii
}}
'''''Klonoa''''' is a remake of the 1997 [[PlayStation|Playstation]] platformer ''[[Klonoa: Door to Phantomile]]''. It was published by Bandai Namco and developed by Paon, and was released for the [[Wii|Nintendo Wii]] in 2008. The remake includes new features such as fully 3D graphics, (poorly-done) English voice acting, a model viewer, alternate costumes, and more.

==File Formats==
* '''.anm''' (Animation)
* '''.brsar''' (Sound)
* '''.brstm''' (Sound)
* '''.mdl''' (Model)
* '''.tpl''' (Sprite/Texture)

==Ripping Tutorials==
===Models/Animations===
See [[BRRES]].

===Sounds===

==Notes==
* Some models may not display textures, or export them, in BRRESView. An easy way around this is to open Dolphin, turn on the Dump Textures feature, launch the game, and then either play up to the part that has the model that appeared texture-less, or go to the game's Model Viewer.
** Alternatively, check the '''Texture.bin''' file as a bunch of common textures are stored in it.

Nintendo 3DS

2014-08-31T04:39:43Z

Mystie: New methods and information on 3DS ripping

[[File:3DS.png|250px|right|link=]]
The Nintendo 3DS is a handheld console created by Nintendo in 2011.

As the successor to the [[Nintendo DS]], the console features two screens, with the bottom having touch controls. The console boasts a better set of specifications to its predecessor, but also allows for 3D vision without glasses on the top screen.

==Ripping Tools==
There seems to be a way of creating a RAM dump, making it possible to rip models, textures, and sounds this way. The method requires a 3DS system below 4.5 firmware and a flashcart, and can be quite complex. More information [http://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=11626 here] and [http://gbatemp.net/threads/extracting-models-and-textures-from-3ds-games.370788/ here].

==Suggested Emulators==
There are currently no known emulators for the 3DS.

CPK

2014-08-20T00:29:41Z

Mystie:

'''CPK''' is an archive format developed by ''CRI Middleware''. It is used in games for a variety of platforms. Files of this format have a .cpk extension.

The first four bytes of the file always have the value ''0x43504B20'' ("CPK ").
==Tools==
===[[Noesis]]===
''For more details on this program, please visit the [[Noesis]] page.''

Noesis supports the format by default.
===[[QuickBMS]]===
''For more details on this program, please visit the [[QuickBMS]] page.''

You can extract ''CPK'' archives using [http://aluigi.altervista.org/papers/bms/cpk.bms this] script.

Dreamcast

2014-08-20T00:25:47Z

Mystie: Just found out that Skies of Arcadia actually IS supported by Noesis, you just need a .gdi dump.

[[File:Dreamcast-Console-Set.jpg|right|300px|link=]]
The Sega Dreamcast is a console created by Sega in 1998. It was Sega's last game system before they became a third-party publisher.
==Ripping Tools==
===Noesis===
<div style="padding-left: 1.6em; margin-bottom: 0.5em; font-style: italic;">Main article: [[Noesis]]</div>
This program can be used to rip the standard Dreamcast texture format (read below), or to rip ''[[Sonic Shuffle]]'', ''[[Sword of the Berserk: Guts' Rage]]'' or ''[[Space Channel 5]]'' models. It also has support for ''[[Skies of Arcadia]]'''s model format, although you need a .gdi dump of said game in order for the model files to be recognized.

==Common File Formats==
Most Dreamcast games tend to use different files for each game, although some games use the same file formats. Here are a few that have cropped up in multiple games:

* '''.afs''' (Sound)
* '''.osb''' (Sound)
* '''.pvm''' (Texture/Sprite)

==Recommended Emulators==
===nullDC===
So far the DC emulator with best compatibility, it will play most games faithfully. It is still a WIP, so some issues may happen.

PlayStation 2

2014-08-06T22:06:19Z

Mystie:

[[File:PlayStation2.jpg|right|300px|link=]]
The PlayStation 2 is a console created by Sony in 2000. It is the number one best-selling system of all time, selling more than 155 million units worldwide. The system featured many games 3D titles, a select few that heavily featured sprites.

==Ripping Tools==
The PlayStation 2 uses DVD-based technology, meaning that all of the data found within a game can be read using a standard ISO viewer (with only a few exceptions), or by inserting the disk into your computer and browsing it. As such, the console has a vast number of different formats that are used that require their own dedicated tools to view. Some common formats can be seen below.

A number of games, however, are restricted. When trying to view the files on the disc, it's possible that there will be significantly less than you would expect from the reported file size used on the disc. These files are hidden, and are generally not able to be accessed. The only means of ripping from games with these restrictions is by playing with an ISO of the disc directly, and not by mounting it. This can of course be an arduous task.

===Texture Extractor/Reinserter (TextER)===
TextER can be found for Windows at [http://www.romhacking.net/utilities/659 www.romhacking.net]. It allows you to extract .[[TIM2|TM2]] (TIM2) files found within other files. This method doesn't return the correct file names, however.

A batch file can be created to make ripping [[TIM2]] files from multiple containers quicker. Save the code below into a ".bat" file, and include it in the same folder as TextER.exe. Running the .bat file will then extract any [[TIM2]] files found within all of the files in the same folder as both TextER.exe and your batch file.

<code>for %%X in (*.*) do texter -e "%%X" -tm</code>

==Common File Formats==
===[[TIM2]]===
''For more details on this file format, please visit the [[TIM2]] page.''

The .TIM2 file format is a common format for both sprites and textures.

==Suggested Emulators==
===PCSX2===
PCSX2 is the only fully functional PlayStation 2 emulator, and as such is the only one that can be recommended. It requires a relatively strong system, and is not always 100% compatible with every game.

[[File:PS3.png|thumbnail]]
The Playstation 3 is a console created by Sony in 2006. It was infamous at launch for its $500-600 price tag and its lack of interesting exclusives, but over time, it gathered a plentiful library of great titles, both first-party and third-party.

==Ripping Tools==
Most PS3 games tend to use different file formats for each game, and a majority of the first-party games currently cannot be ripped from.

There are currently no known emulators for the Playstation 3.

BRRES

2014-08-06T21:36:54Z

Mystie:

'''BRRES''' is a common archival format for [[Wii]] that can contain anything from models ('''BRMDL / MDL0'''), textures ('''BRTEX / TEX0'''), or animations ('''BRCHA / CHR0, BRSHP / SHP0, SRT0''', et cetera). Programs such as [[BrawlBox]] or [[BRRESViewer]] are capable of previewing and exporting these formats into more common file types.

These are the currently-known games which use this format:

The '''Atari Jaguar''' is a video game console that was developed by Atari Corporation in 1993. It was marketed as the first 64-bit gaming system, but was a commercial failure, and is widely regarded as one of the worst systems ever made.

The console later received a CD-ROM peripheral called '''Atari Jaguar CD''', released in 1995.

'''Sword Art Online: Infinity Moment''' is an RPG based on the Sword Art Online light novel series. The game was developed by Banpresto and released in Japan for [[PlayStation Portable]].
==File Formats==
* '''.[[GMO]]''' - Model/Animation data
* '''.[[GIM]]''' - Texture data

* '''[[OFS3]]''' - Archive
* '''[[AFS2]]''' - Archive/Sound container
* '''.[[WAV]]''' - BGM (Background music)

==Ripping Tutorials==
===Archive decryption===
The main archive of the game is encrypted, however it is possible to decrypt it using JPCSP. In order to do that you need to:
[[File:JPCSP-decrypt-pgd.png|thumb|left|300px|JPCSP configuration]]<br />

# Make sure that "Extract PGD files to TMP folder" is checked as shown on the picture.
# Launch the game and wait for the archive to decrypt. The game will start as soon as the process is completed.
<br /><br /><br /><br />

===Archive extraction===
After finishing the previous step you should have a file named "PGDfile.raw.decrypted" in the TMP folder of your JPCSP. This is a .[[CPK]] archive. You can extract it using [http://aluigi.altervista.org/papers/bms/cpk.bms this] [[QuickBMS]] script.

Alternatively you can use [[Noesis]], but be sure to change the extension of the archive to .cpk or the programm will not be able to recognize it.

You may notice that a lot of files are extensionless and have names like "057" or "20f0". A lot of those appear to be [[OFS3]] or [[AFS2]] archives. It is not the fault of the extractor, it really is the way files are stored in this game.

==Notes==
* It is recommended that the models be ripped from the Xbox 360 version, as the PS3 version has downgraded textures, and, at the time of writing this, Wii U game filesystems are not yet accessible.
* You will notice that all of Bayonetta and Jeanne's models (sans their child forms and animal forms) have some strange meshes attached to them. The reason for this is because these meshes are used to form the shape you see in their shadows in-game. When submitting your model rips to [[The Models Resource]], it would be best to include in your .zip folder the original, unmodified version of the model (with these meshes), and a version without these meshes.

'''Mystie''' is one of the newest members of [[The VG Resource]]. She joined in January 2014 asking how to rip models from ''[[Bayonetta]]'' or ''[[Lollipop Chainsaw]]'', and has started ripping models ever since. At first, she didn't think she'd use the site's forums that much except for help with content ripping, but pretty soon she found herself getting really involved in the community, and making quite a few acquaintances along the way.

She specializes in ripping models and sounds from [[Gamecube]], [[Wii]], [[Nintendo DS|NDS]], [[Xbox 360]], and [[PC]] games, as she finds these the easiest systems to rip from. Occasionally, she rips sprites and standalone textures too.

[[File:Wii.JPG|right|link=]]
The Wii is a console created by Nintendo in 2006. It is one of the top five best-selling game consoles in history, and it shares many traits in its file system to Nintendo's previous console, the [[GameCube]].
==Ripping Tools==

The Wii uses DVD-based technology, which generally would mean that files are visible from a disk through any standard ISO viewer or by inserting the DVD into your computer's disk drive. However, Nintendo specifically designed their disk drives to read files in a unique manner, making the reading on Wii game's disks require a special piece of software. There are a number of tools available.

===Dolphin===
It's possible to read the files from a Wii ISO through the Wii/GameCube emulator, Dolphin.

==Common File Formats==
===BRRES===
''For more details on this file format, please visit the [[BRRES]] page.''

A standard container file for 3D models, textures, and animations.

===BRSAR/BRSTM===
A standard sound stream file used in several games.

===THP===
A standard movie file used in most games. This file format is also present in several Gamecube games as well.

==Suggested Emulators==

This program can be used to rip the standard Dreamcast texture format (read below), or to rip ''[[Sonic Shuffle]]'' or ''[[Space Channel 5]]'' models. It also has support for ''[[Skies of Arcadia]]'''s model format, although it always encounters errors every time a model from said game is opened.

==Common File Formats==
Most Dreamcast games tend to use different files for each game, although some games use the same file formats. Here are a few that have cropped up in multiple games:

* '''.afs''' (Sound)
* '''.osb''' (Sound)
* '''.pvm''' (Texture/Sprite)

The GameCube is a console created by Nintendo in 2001. It is noted and praised for its quirky and innovative game library, and for its unique controller.
==Ripping Tools==

The GameCube uses DVD-based technology, which generally would mean that files are visible from a disk through any standard ISO viewer or by inserting the DVD into your computer's disk drive. However, Nintendo specifically designed their disk drives to read files in a unique manner, making the reading on GameCube game's disks require a special piece of software. There are a number of tools available.

===Dolphin===
It's possible to read the files from a GameCube ISO through the Wii/GameCube emulator, Dolphin.

==Common File Formats==
* '''.arc''' (Model/Texture/Animation package)
* '''.bnr''' (Boot data)
* '''.dsp''' (Sound file)
* '''.h4m''' (Movie file)
* '''.thp''' (Movie file)

==Suggested Emulators==

====Sprite/Texture Dumping====
Sprite/texture dumping in Dolphin is a very simple process. Here is how it's done:

# Launch Dolphin.
# Click on "Options", and then "Graphics Settings" from the drop-down menu.
# In the Graphics Configuration window, click on the "Advanced" tab, then check the "Dump Textures" box.
# Close the window, then select and launch the game you want to rip from.
# Play up to the point that has the sprites or textures you want to rip. Once you get everything you need, close or pause the game.
# Now go to '''Documents\Dolphin Emulator\Dump\Textures\[game ID]'''. View files by Large Icons or Extra Large Icons, and sort by Date Modified. This will help you find what you need easier.
