cromas: You're right the lighing of the models made in the reunion patch was pretty dark.  Sometime I'll redo the lighing on all these models.
 
Hi guys, I've fixed some bugs in my lgp fixer (and this time I doublechecked to see if it worked before uploading :roll:). I also packed it up into an standalaone executable so you don't have to use the python interpreter.

Grab it here

Thanks for your reply, Storm. Exactly what is involved with adjusting the lighting? I'd be willing to do this once finals are over (next week) if you guys don't have time for such tweaking.
 
Well the harder part in relighting the models is to kill the present lighting because you gonna have to recolor the model before adding lighting again.  But as I said it's in my project to do it.  Don't know when though 'cause right now I don't have much time.
 
Any new screenshots? I'm curious about what characters have been updaed since 0.5 and what is on the bench now.

I'd love to help if I had the skill to do so.  I have all the latest software (3DSMax 8, LW8.5, Maya 7, Poser 6, Bryce 5.5, PaintShop Pro X)  but lack the knowledge.  I'm sooo curious how you go about increasing the poloygons.  I've opened the files in the modeler but have been unable to manipulate them correctly.  Any hints?!
 
Nice collection of software :-D ...  but unfortunately useless for the momant... you can convert the .p files to 3ds but you won't be able to reinsert them ingame.  We use Kimera (made by Borde thanks again Borde!!!) to modify the battle parts that have more polygone... so basicaly we use the battles model's part and adapt them to make them fit with the model you want to do.  I could help you to get over the basic of making model if you want.  Just add me to msn if you want I think it'll be easier by msn than to explain to you in the forms.

Well see you
 
Installing the latest version of the patch now, but this will interfere when I install the updated Zach MOD
 
well i think no if you run run Npc patch 1st if it do. I will have a chat with JR to work things out.


EDIT i need to chat with him anyway about something 8-)
 
Hi Guys,

Writing from the uk, just thought I mention, what a great show you guys have here. I have just downloaded the NPC patch and the detail on the characters are an amazing improvement. Excellent Mod. Clould no longer has lego hands.

I have heard numerous new and remours on square's "yes", "maybe","erh.... I did say that" policy on a possible remake of this great game for the ps3. Luck would have it google bought me here. Fabtastic.

If I can support you guys in anyway let me. I don't have much skill in any specific modelling applications. However I am a quick study, and one thing I can offer, like most people is those 4-5 hour free time after work and time on the weekend.

Kind regards

first download kimera then go to the second post of this thread and there should be a how too guide
 
Thanks for the info. I just downloaded the files I need. I am currently playing around to get a free for it. But I will be intouch to find out which models are available to change. I wouldn't wanna tread on any toes. Ha!

Kind regards

Well if you want to join us you should add us to msn ... I could help you to start if you want.
 
I was searching the net for info on hrc files and noticed that they are related to XSI SoftImage.  I wouldn't be surprised if the files were created with that program.  I am trying to get my hands the software to test that theory.

EDIT: SoftImage|XSI 5.1 will import HRC files but nothing shows up.  As it is a header file it probably only sees a structure and no content as it places a null model in the structure tree.  Oh, well.

They found a way to make boobs bounce, so they've just been doing that and watching demos of Tifa doing jumping jacks.
