Grabing Models and Textures from Game or 3D application

There are already a few methods of how to grab or export models with textures from any game or application. I would like to divide them into two main groups:

Example of usage:

Bonus: (This section will come)

There is many ways and reasons how or why you want to use obtained data:

Lethal way

Lethal way breaks all Legal agreements with software/game vendor and distributor. Simply you are not supposed to reverse engineer a product or ‘steal’ any kind of content created by a vendor it is their own intellectual property. But we are doing it because it is fun and most the hardcore fans do not simply care. At least what you can do is not to share «ripped» content for commercial purposes.

Graphics analyzers / profiling tools: Are designed to grab everything that goes to the memory of Graphic card during a single frame, utilizing frame breakdown, analysis or investigation.

3D Ripper DX Is old but still works fine for old games using DirectX 6x, 8x, 9x.

Note: Instalation is password protected, type: ripper

Ninja Ripper Works great for most of games based on DirectX 9x, 10x, 11x and newer.

Before you will start to use any Ripper tool or Graphics analyzer it is a good practice to understand what the Tool does and what is happening inside application.

At first,you must be aware of which Graphics API does the game run and check if tool or software of your selection does support that criteria, otherwise it might not work.

There are some cases of «software protection» against reverse engineering tools that will disable the functionality of software disassemblers or profilers or even prevent it from running the application.

The second you must realize that it is impossible to capture Frames per second in real-time from the graphic card, so every time you will do the ‘Frame grab’, the application will freeze for a few seconds or minutes.

And for the third, you must be aware that everything you are grabbing is handled by Game Engine of the game itself. Generally, Game Engine has its sub-system called ‘Rendering engine’ which is in the most common way responsible for managing everything that you see on the screen and in what order it will be displayed.

The Rendering engine is working with all 3D data structures such as vertices, polygons, UV coordinates, and textures. Under the hood Rendering engine is also handling their optimization before sending it to the video buffer memory and before it is all displayed in the frame of the application.

You will find more informations in Own Tool section.

So you might also grab additional «unwanted» data, which are practically hidden but their representation still exists in video memory such as:

Example of Usage:

The following game selection was made not because I loved those titles, but because there is still a lack of third-party community extraction tools for file formats. They are hard to crack or not interesting enough to give a try. This serves as proof that you can still extract game data from most of the games without official or community support.

For a Graphics Analyzer section I have used the DirectX 11 game steam-version of Alien: Isolation from Creative Assembly.

For Ripper Tools section I choose to use older DirectX 9 game steam-version of Dead Space 2 from Visceral games (EA)

Using a following software:

Using 3D Ripper DX

A 3D Ripper DX is a tool which enables you a grab frame data like 3d models, textures, and shaders. For 3d models it utilizes own file format called «.3DR» so for a successful viewing you must have any version of 3D Studio Max from 2009 to 2014 and installed import plugin which is included in 3D Ripper DX installation. Any other data such as textures (DDS Format) and shaders (Plain Text format) are viewable with common tools included in Windows 10.

Note: Shaders are in compiled form so you need to understand for DirectX HLSL Shading language with Fixed Function pipeline its instruction set and registers for a proper decomposition. You can follow for example this guide

Using Ninja Ripper

Usage and principles are almost the same as 3D Ripper DX, but Ninja does not support wireframe mode. Ninja Ripper also utilizes its own format «.RIP» which is exportable via Python plugin for 3D Studio Max. (Already included in software folder ‘/tool’ directory).

From results, we are able to see one main difference between Ninja Ripper and 3D Ripper DX is that tool captures the scene before any transformations from GPU shaders, it simply means that characters remain in the T-pose and additional/other geometry is also captured without rotation or deformation. That is one of the reasons why 3D Ripper DX is able to grab only what you are seeing on the screen.

I would like to say that every software has its own use case. For example, if I want to create «diorama» scene I will be choosing a 3D Ripper DX for a «models in motion», on another side if I would like to have non-deformed assets in their original stage I would choose Ninja Ripper instead.

Non-lethal way

Is an easy method, but time and computing-power consuming. The technique is pretty simple only what you need to do is to take many screenshots as possible from different camera angles in the application and use «processing» application which will generate a 3D model with textures from your screenshots. Quality of the generated 3D model with texture is depended on how many «takes» (screenshots) from different camera angle you did. You can follow this guide from page 8 chapter 2.

In theory, you are not altering with original data, or reverse engineering («cracking») file structures from the software vendor’s game engine, because you are just taking screenshots.

Example of usage: (Agisoft Metashape)

If you are not familiar with usage of Agisoft Metashape (Photoscan) you can folow this guide

For a beter texture resolution you can rebuild Texture using «Build Texture» with higher resolution settings than defined, I have used 8k resolution which is 4 times bigger than source image resolution (1920×1080).

I will not bother you with optimisations and what you can do as next step but I will recommend to reduce polygon mesh by using something like Simplygon or InstaLOD or built-in functionality like Cinema 4D have called Polygon reduction.

dragon age origins runs on bioware
inquistion runs on frostbite
star wars the force unleashed runs on ronin
brutal legend runs on buddha
mass effect 3 runs on unreal engine 3 (coincidence?)
the wolf among us runs on telltale tool

tl;dr most of the games you mentioned are impossible to port from

Dragon Age Origins runs on Eclipse Engine, Bioware is the developer.

And no engine is ever impossible to rip models from, you just need the proper tool. But in most cases, it takes an astronomical amount of know-how to code such a tool, and the more obscure a game engine is, the less likely it is that someone has done so.

Note: The article is designed for expirienced 3ds Max users and doesn’t cover detail things such as, for example, texturing objects, setting up materials, etc.

1. Setting up the ripper.
Unpack the archive to any folder. Run the program.

2. Game rip process.
After game is started the folde _NinjaRipper will be created near the application exe. In game choose the desired location and click the «rip» button (F10 by default). After pressing F10 the game will «freeze» for a second, then it will run for a bit and «freeze» again for about 5-25 seconds. Duration of ripping process depends on complexity of the game and the computer capacity. During the ripping process all the ripped resources will be storing inside the _NinjaRipper folder. 3d model format is rip, texture format is dds.

Press Textures rip button (F9 by default) to rip the textures only. Press Forced rip button to rip for a period of a seconds. It’s important for ripping web sites (ex: WebGl) with 3d models. Firefox is officially supported only. I should mention that normaly after ripping process is over the game will be unfreezed and you can continue it from the same point. However there’re numerous of games which continue runnig during ripping process or games which screen will dimmed after ripping process so you can hear the game but can’t see it.

The only tested browser is Firefox. Used specs: windows 7 x64, geforce GTX 660.

1. run Ninja Ripper;
2. setup Settings/Forced button to F4 (or any other button wich browser doesn’t use);

5. wait until webpage load completely;
6. tap F4 to start ripping process:

— models will be saved along with the textures (models can be duplicated multiple times);

7. open folder whith just ripped 3d models:

10. to rip another model you have to clear Frame0000 folder first, because ripper will not create Frame0001 folder it will rip to Frame0000 folder again.

11. see final model:

Here’s setting for ripping from Dolphin (Gamecube/Wii emulator). Used specs: windows 7 x64, geforce GTX 660:

Riped models from pcsx2 (ps2 emulator) is heavily distorted and lack of polygons. Also the UV coordinated are not ripping correctly. So I suggest to use pcxs2 internal ripping feature:

Ripping from from psp games useing JPCSP is not possible. Because JPCSP works on Java. Hovewer you can «rip» models with JPCSP internal function:

3. Importing models into 3ds max.
For import the model choose rip file and press Import button. All available UV coordinates will be imported into uv channels. To install script copy everything from ninja_ripper_EvoGIMS_manualinstall.7z archive to 3ds Max install directory. To run importer go to your Utilities panel, look below the panel and press first Install button then Run.

Here’s detailed description of all the importer functions:

Texture Indices. Look at the texture’s ID which is related to the imported mesh. For example Tex_0001_0.dds defined by the number before «.dds» is usually used as diffuse texture.

Import This section is for settings of the mesh import.

В статье подробно описан процесс «рипа» моделей, текстур и шейдеров из игр использующих в качестве API directx версий 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 (как 32 так и 64 битных версий) и импортирования «рипнутых» моделей/текстур в 3ds max, Noesis или Blender.

Внимание: рипер не поддерживает и не будет поддерживать рип моделей с сохранением их игровых позиций как это делает 3D Ripped DX.

После этого настроив процесс импорта жмём IMPORT, все файлы соответствующие написанным цифрам импортируются в 3ds max. Скорость процесса зависит от сложности и количеству моделей — иногда придётся запастись терпением.

Примечание: Следите за тем чтобы файлов не было очень много, или перенесите текстуры в отдельную папку: бывает такое, что огромное количество текстур, которые ложатся на импортированные объекты перегружают 3ds max и он «падает/закрывается» с ошибкой.

Модели (иногда и текстуры) могут быть так же загружены в Blender или Noesis:

I lack the time right now to look into the game.

Generally speaking there are three approaches to 3d.

2) The official format. This is NSBMD with textures either included in there or separately as NSBTX (do note not everything is a texture and the model colour options do quite well for some things) and animations as NSBCA. Most of the time they are compressed but with standard stuff, most of the time they have those extensions somewhere in the name but not all the time as I have seen some other things in some other games.
Various tools, most of them less than what you might have seen on the 3ds or indeed most other systems
nsbmdtool is the basic thing but fails in some way on most things, newer stuff especially. You might find something better suited for use with pokemon somewhere. Equally it will usually tell you what it got confused by so you can edit the file manually to try to dodge it if you are good enough.
https://filetrip.net/nds-downloads/utilities/download-nsbmd-tool-1-0-f28230.html
Texture wise you have a few more options, some indeed you can even persuade a conventional 2d tile viewer to display..
Tinke is what most would use here https://github.com/pleonex/tinke/releases
http://gbatemp.net/threads/mkds-course-modifier.299444/ has some things, it is geared towards mario kart DS but it does do more.

Here is a pretty good description of the format
http://llref.emutalk.net/docs/?file=xml/bmd0.xml
You might also like to poke around https://github.com/Dirbaio/NSMB-Editor/tree/master/NSMBe4
Likewise if anything else is open source around here then it might also be worth a look.

3) Something custom but still close to the hardware.
Hope you know 3d maths and general concepts, here is the hardware
http://problemkaputt.de/gbatek.htm#ds3dvideo
A handful of these have been looked at, most notably Mario 64 and metroid prime

http://kuribo64.net/board/forum.php?id=32

You are not going to have an opengl type ripper like some things, though no$gba debug is free these days and has some fairly advanced 3d manipulation and viewing options. As with most play driven stuff you can always cheat and change file names to showcase end bosses/late game stuff right at the start if you want. Desmume has something in the menu but it was a placeholder last I checked (was a while ago though).

All this is geared towards viewing and editing to be put back into the game, if you want to rip more than textures to put into your own game you are going to have to do it yourself. If you want something custom to go back in then some do fiddle with the leaked SDK tools for it but I am not going to help with that one, other than to say good luck finding the ancient version of 3ds max that you will need if you want to head down this path. Others try with MKDS course modifier to convert, it is not my favourite thing to do though.

Most of the time they are compressed but with standard stuff, most of the time they have those extensions somewhere in the name but not all the time as I have seen some other things in some other games.
Various tools, most of them less than what you might have seen on the 3ds or indeed most other systems
nsbmdtool is the basic thing but fails in some way on most things, newer stuff especially. You might find something better suited for use with pokemon somewhere. Equally it will usually tell you what it got confused by so you can edit the file manually to try to dodge it if you are good enough.

Texture wise you have a few more options, some indeed you can even persuade a conventional 2d tile viewer to display..
Tinke is what most would use here https://github.com/pleonex/tinke/releases
http://gbatemp.net/threads/mkds-course-modifier.299444/ has some things, it is geared towards mario kart DS but it does do more.

Here is a pretty good description of the format

You might also like to poke around https://github.com/Dirbaio/NSMB-Editor/tree/master/NSMBe4
Likewise if anything else is open source around here then it might also be worth a look.

3) Something custom but still close to the hardware.
Hope you know 3d maths and general concepts, here is the hardware

A handful of these have been looked at, most notably Mario 64 and metroid prime

You are not going to have an opengl type ripper like some things, though no$gba debug is free these days and has some fairly advanced 3d manipulation and viewing options. As with most play driven stuff you can always cheat and change file names to showcase end bosses/late game stuff right at the start if you want. Desmume has something in the menu but it was a placeholder last I checked (was a while ago though).

All this is geared towards viewing and editing to be put back into the game, if you want to rip more than textures to put into your own game you are going to have to do it yourself. If you want something custom to go back in then some do fiddle with the leaked SDK tools for it but I am not going to help with that one, other than to say good luck finding the ancient version of 3ds max that you will need if you want to head down this path. Others try with MKDS course modifier to convert, it is not my favourite thing to do though.
