I'm pretty sure we would have to define EVERYTHING in .mdl0 first.
SO start there.

[BlackJax96]

Yep, I'm looking for offsets for everything now.
I'm going to update the main post as things progress.

[TheShyGuy]

lol if you need info on mdl0 ..look at the bone tree editor thread and material collab...tcll is doing mostly everything. He made a template which has lots of offsets done

[BlackJax96]

Awesome.

you'll need HexEdit for this to work...
http://www.smashboards.com/showpost.php?p=11656041&postcount=2778

copy the template, and paste it in:
C:\Documents and Settings\*user*\Application Data\ECSoftware\HexEdit\_mdl0.xml
and open an mdl0 file in HexEdit...

now, the template doesn't initiate automatically :/
when you open the mdl0,
go to 'view'-'template'-'split window'
and be sure to turn the auto sync on as well (looks like 3 red arrows "back, forth, back")

also, be sure to R-Click 'MDL0' and click 'Allow Editing'.
(it takes a while to load, but there's no errors with it this way)

heh...
the more help I get in learning the format, the faster I'll be able to build a 2-way (complete) converter.
Will's is uncomplete, but returns a working mesh (verts, normals, uv's, and faces)
AIS returns alot more, but is glitchy and still doesn't cover everything.

also...
dae is ascii (text)
mdl0 is binary (hex)

I'm trying to convert between collada 140 and 141

glad to have some help
FINALLY

there's currently alot to be known before a perfect mdl0 can be written from scratch...

also, I have the AIS src...
but... I can't read C codes :/
I progg in Py, or HTML/JS >_>

[BlackJax96]

I know a little C#, or is AiS in C/C++? I have a couple friends who are good at C/C++ coding too.

I have no clue how the daes are made, but I do know that they are in ascii (xml), and I'm pretty good with looking over binary. I think I found a thread somewhere that listed all the parts of an mdl0, I'll try to find it

nice
here's the src: http://www.filefactory.com/file/b29fah4/n/ais_rar
took me FOREVER to find btw D:>

ah... I see...
do you have any 140 or 141 files that import perfectly into blender??
I need a template to tell me how it works :/
140 has a VGroup prob, and 141 has a UV and bone prob on my end...
can't build a template out of files that don't work :/

I could look online too, so it's ok if you don't have any

and yea, can't wait for that thread
*waits patiently*

[BlackJax96]

I have blender, but it never works properly for me... I use 3ds max 8 and 2010 instead. I just tried to import a dae into it, and 1.4 had a script error

I couldn't find the exact thread, but Brawlbox does have a file for mdl0s, it's in C#:
http://code.google.com/p/brawltools/source/browse/trunk/BrawlLib/SSBB/Types/MDL0.cs

I'll take a look at the AiS source.

[DarkPika]

heh...
can't afford 3DS and don't wanna deal with dreaded blue screen again
here I thought 3DS was good, but after it destroyed my cpu twice... yea...

btw, I've got a copy of every src from brbx saved...

brawllib contains the structures... (I can read vars)

EDIT:
well today was kinda a blowoff day for me
I'm not getting help with either of the MDL0 or DAT formats... DX
so I've been on YT and random sites, just doin... stuff...

[BlackJax96]

You dont happen to have a file called Dae.h, do you? I need it to build the source

Lately I've been working on Nel.
...and trying to convert a model I have in PMD and X format to any other format that's importable with 3ds max... no luck yet with that, I've tried everything

lol...
I just deleted it (the entire DOM) XD
I'll retrieve it right now

O.O did you say PMD...
there's a blender importer for that you know...
it may, or may not work for your file :/

roo525 wanted me to import a pmd of Flandre

[BlackJax96]

Like I said, blender is stupid for me I got a script error importing it, I think I have to switch Blender to Japanese but I have no clue how to do that 0_o figured out how to switch it, but I still get an error 

Could you try and export it as a DAE for me? lol and thanks for getting dae.h for me

It's Yoko Littner
