I downloaded the ISO, the extractor, and all the other tools talked about on the wiki page, rich whitehouse page, and any other site mentioned, but I cannot see where it says how to extract the models from the ISO, and where to go from there.   Someone extracted the Crisis Core models for me but won't explain to me how he did it.

Please, I have very little experience with this kind of stuff so if someone would take the time to explain how to do this in detail I would greatly appreciate it, really all I want is the textures from the game lol.

Thank you very much.
 
I downloaded gitmo, and it says it found 509 gmo's.  But it's not creating anything in the destination path that I specified.
 
509, huh? That's interesting, I believe Vash's tools only exported 402. I wonder what those extra ones are.

Anyway, if it's not writing them to your output path, the path must be set up incorrectly somehow, or you're out of disk space, or maybe if you're running Vista it's a write permission issue that could be fixed by running GitMO as admin. Could be a lot of things, so unless you can provide more specific information about your path settings and such, I can't really help you.
 
well I don't really know what else to say about my output path except I'm telling it to put the stuff in the folder where all the rest of my dissidia related tools are located like mesh2rdm and gitmo. Which is a folder inside in a folder inside a folder inside a folder inside a folder lol.... and I know the path is right because of the lovely browse button saving me from having to type the path in lol.

And I had to turn off the windows user account control thing when I first got my comps so I could make dats for ffxi.  So I'm pretty sure that can't be it.

Would it give me some kind of error if I was out of disk space?
 
It doesn't give an error if it can't write a specific file, it just continues searching and handles the write failure silently. I suggest making a folder like c:\gmo where the path is short, simple, and has no risk of being admin-protected (which I believe is an issue with certain paths when not running admin whether or not you have UAC enabled). Then try outputting to that instead.
 
Well I changed my output path to what you suggested but nothing was created : /

the last option, Source file mask:, says *.bin and the recursive box is checked.  Is that what it should be?
 
Unless your source file has a .bin extension, then no, *.bin isn't what it should be. Although it's very weird that it's even reporting any findings in that case. Just make it *.*, or *.iso assuming you are searching a .iso file. I recently tested it on Dissidia, and it works just fine for me without doing anything special. Set the source path, set the destination path, and make sure your file mask matches. You also don't need "recursive" checked if you are selecting the source folder containing the iso file.
 
Yes! Changing it to *.iso fixed it. ^^  Thank you soooo much Mr. Adult. It extracted the gmo's to the destination folder I specified.

Now do I just open mesh2rdm and drag the gmo onto the cmdos window that opens?

No, you drag the files onto the actual mesh2rdm.exe file in Explorer. Or if you have no programs associated with GMO files in Explorer, double-click a gmo file and browse to mesh2rdm.exe after selecting the "select a program from a list" or whatever the option is. This is standard-fare Windows stuff that you can go Google for help on. I suggest educating yourself in this area anyway, just to make life in Windows easier. ;)
