FF7 where are the weapon modles

[SpinningCone]

ive been looking through the .lgp files and cannot seem to find the models for the battle weapons (specificaly Cloud's swords).

ive tried ifalna and leviathan which view the battle models but they all seem to be monsters and characters. where are these models hiding and what tools do i need to convert them to 3ds files. anyone know ?

I know you can VIEW the weaposn with LGPTools, but i dunno how well you can extract them or anything.

if you want to mess with clouds weapon files you use lpgtools to extract rtaa-rtda then open up biturn on the folder you extracted them to clouds weapons start with rtc

In other words: The parts named **am - **cj are the model parts, the parts named **cl - **cz are the weapon models.

OK thanks, there are som any files in the lgp and they al have seemingly random names.  and its a total pain to open each file to preview it . the fastedt was ilfalna but it tended to crash after a dozen models

reason i ask all this was i hope to make an Oblivion mod for TES IV and want to add in cloud's weapons (re-modled and retextured ofc)

Here ( or in alhexx's database on alhexx.com ) you can find creature list, and there is two-letter mark on each start of the line. These two letters are starting characters of the creature's file. For example Tifa's models start with letters RU.
