Title: [Python] All-in-one import hexer. Version 2! GUI and multiple file support!
Post by: ForOhFor Error on April 06, 2011, 06:40:57 PM

We already have working programs to hex imports from games with MDL0s into usable models. However, these programs are fairly slow, only fix one MDL0 at a time, and, well, there's 3 of the things thatn eed to be run separately.

I am doing my first full program, based in python, to remedy that situation. It will combine the 3 steps (header, materials, polygons) into one program, which will hex every model in a brres file.

And, since it's in Python instead of Gamemaker, it's much faster than the existing programs.

It will be useful for, say, hexing those bothersome okami models.

UPDATE LOG:

V 2.0:
-Added a GUI
-Added multi-BRRES support
-Now overwrites input files

Program completed, download here:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5869687/Python%20Model%20Hexer%202%20%28GUI%29.zip

Old version:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5869687/Python%20Model%20Hexer%20-%20Complete.zip

TO DO BEFORE FULL RELEASE:
Done
In progress
Bug fixing
Not started

- Opening file, translating into a usable string
- Locating all MDL0s and logging their locations
- Creation of a module to store long functions
- MDL0 header fixing function
- MDL0 material fixing function
- MDL0 polygon fixing function
- Launching these functions through a main program
- Translating usable hex back to a savable format
- Saving the file

~~I may need some help along the way, just for the locating of specific values in the hex data.~~

Nice. This will help a lot.
Good luck, if you need it ;)

Thanks!
(Also, note that, not only being my first utility program, I've never really manually hexed anything before :P)

I've made some progress, but have a small problem:

How a certain block should look like after the header fix (From the existing fixing program):

How it does look:

No clue what's causing it...
but that's the only difference once both have been header fixed.

how are you handeling the values??
are the values being handeled floats or ints??

it's possible you could be handeling a float as an int

as a string...

ah

here, the full mdl0 header should look like this:
note: this is reading from it

   #<<header>>
   magic = fr.read(4)
   if magic == 'MDL0': #check if valad
   print 'MDL0 file is valad' #check
   #--header (part1)--
   strtbl_offset = ui(fr.read(4))
   sections = ui(fr.read(4))
   nodes_offset = si(fr.read(4))*(0-1)
   #list offsets to relocation table groups
   definits_list = ui(fr.read(4))
   bones_list = ui(fr.read(4))
   vertices_list = ui(fr.read(4))
   normals_list = ui(fr.read(4))
   colors_list = ui(fr.read(4))
   uv_points_list = ui(fr.read(4))
   materials_list = ui(fr.read(4))
   shader_conf_list = ui(fr.read(4))
   objects_list = ui(fr.read(4))
   textures_list = ui(fr.read(4))
   pallets_list = ui(fr.read(4))
   #--header (part2)--
   string_offset = ui(fr.read(4))
   header_length = ui(fr.read(4)) #64
   header_offset = ui(fr.read(4))
   #--displayed in brawlbox:--
   unknown_1 = fr.read(4)
   unknown_2 = fr.read(4)
   NumVertices = ui(fr.read(4))
   NumFaces = ui(fr.read(4))
   unknown_3 = fr.read(4)
   NumNodes = ui(fr.read(4))
   version = hex(fr.read(4)) #no idea how to handle
   unknown_4 = fr.read(4)
   MinX,MinY,MinZ = fl(fr.read(4)),fl(fr.read(4)),fl(fr.read(4))
   MaxX,MaxY,MaxZ = fl(fr.read(4)),fl(fr.read(4)),fl(fr.read(4))
   NumNodes2 = fr.read(4) #(Copy?)
   #<</header>>

here's the common functions being used:

#--<<common functions>>--
import struct as St
def L(this): return St.unpack('>l', this)[0] #return a long int
def hex(this): return this.encode('hex') #return the hex value of a char
def ui(this): return int(this.encode('hex'),16) #return an unsigned 8bit, 16bit, or 32bit int (most common)
def si(this): return int(long(this.encode('hex'),16)-2**32) #return a signed 8bit, 16bit, or 32bit int
def bfl(this): return St.unpack("<f", this)[0] #return a big endian 32bit float
def fl(this): return St.unpack(">f", this)[0] #return a 32bit float (highly common)
#--<</common functions>>--

That code from your Universal Model Converter?
Thing is, I'm just using this here (the tutorial):

as a guide for what to change, using code to do the steps.

if you're having any problems understanding how to code for the MDL0,
you can look into my WIP template for HexEdit:

yea...

you can use it to see how to write the values

btw,
use St.pack
not St.unpack as in the functions

use the L() function when writing something like '00 00 00 09'
if you use ui(), you'll just get '09'
I like to use chr(int(h,16)) alot,
and I use chr(0) for padding

Well, here's the code I'm using in the MDL0 fixing module:

Code:

import string
def fixHeader(Data,indexNum):
    data2 = Data
    logThis = Data[indexNum+88:indexNum+96]
    newDat = Data[0:indexNum+16]
    newDat += "00000009ffffff80"
    newDat += Data[len(newDat):len(newDat)+(8*6)]
    newDat += Data[len(newDat)+16:len(newDat)+56]
    newDat += Data[len(newDat)+8:len(newDat)+24]
    newDat += "ffffffc0"
    newDat += Data[len(newDat):len(newDat)+40]
    newDat += logThis
    newDat += Data[len(newDat):]
    return newDat
def fixHeaderPt2(Data,indexNum):
    savey = Data[indexNum+(4*8):indexNum+(5*8)]
    startOfDefHead = int(savey,16)-12
    newDat = Data[0:indexNum+startOfDefHead*2]
    newDat += "ffffffff"*3
    newDat += Data[len(newDat):]
    return newDat

I call fixHeader() first, with my logged position of the MDL0 file (indexNum) and the data of the brres file, saved as a string (Data) as arguments (This does all the steps in the text tutorial, excluding adding 3 'FFFFFFFF's), set a new data string (newdata) to the returned string then call fixHeaderPt2() to add the 3 'FFFFFFFF's and set newdata to that. Here's the main program's code:

Code:

import os
import string
import ___MDL0Fix___
from tkFileDialog import askopenfilename
from tkFileDialog import asksaveasfilename
newData = ""
brres = askopenfilename( filetypes=[
('Brawl Resource Archive','*.brres')
] , )
f = open(brres,'rb')
data = f.read().encode('hex')
if data[0:8] == "62726573":
    print("Valid BRRES confirmed")
else:
    print "Not a valid file. Passing exception to end program."
    x = 1/0
numMdl0s = data.count("4d444c30")
indexLoc = []
start = 0
print numMdl0s,"MDL0 format models found"
for x in range(0,numMdl0s):
    offset = data[start+8:len(data)].find("4d444c30")
    start += offset+8
    indexLoc.append(start)
    print "MDL0 found at",start
print numMdl0s,"MDL0 format models found"
newdata = data
for x in range(0,numMdl0s):
    print "Fixing MDL0 header...(1/2)"
    newdata = ___MDL0Fix___.fixHeader(newdata,indexLoc[x])
    print "Fixing MDL0 header...(2/2)"
    newdata = ___MDL0Fix___.fixHeaderPt2(newdata,indexLoc[x])
    print "MDL0 header fixed!"
f.close()
outputName = asksaveasfilename( filetypes=[
('Brawl Resource Archive','*.brres')
] , )+'.brres'
f = open(outputName, 'wb')
print "Saving Output..."
f.write(newdata.decode('hex'))
f.close()
print "Output Saved!"
quity = input("Press enter to quit!")

Of course, that's just what I have so far.
The problematic part is that the output from this program differs from the fixed product of the existing MDL0 header fixer :/

Post by: DarkPikachu on April 07, 2011, 03:13:43 PM

that's some complicated code you got there
it'd be a shame if something were to happen to it... lol

but I see you're storing the file in a var...
that might be your complication...

you'll notice I'm just using:
fr.read(4)
fr.read(4)
fr.read(4)

you could use:
fw.write(var1)
fw.write(var2)
fw.write(var3)

I find it alot more simpler and organized to do than all that fancy code-work with a stored data var

I'm not too sure of your prob since I'm seeing that :/
that would take me a while to figure out...

I'm on a minecraft server right now,
so I'm not too into the coding stuff...

doesn't mean I can't lend over some info though :)

use my code to figure out how to write the specific data types to the header
(weather to write int(), float(), long(), etc...)
glad your using len() for alot of it

btw, been wanting to say this for so long:
your ava is freakin WIN!!! <3 <3

So, properly following the steps I've been trying to follow gives the exact output as the existing fixer does.
That's good...
any other way, and I'd go insane XD

HYESS!
I've done it!
I've fixed the problem!
The program will now fix every header in any amount of MDL0 files!

EDIT: Wait... what?
I ran it through some... fixed 'em fine.
Then I ran it through some different files.
It made every model be named ÿÿÿ¸ÿÿÿÀ
clearly, I have some bugs...

I'll prbly do better if I get your src when it's finished ;)

can you leave alot of commenting like I do :/

Title: Re: [Python] All-in-one import hexer. ALPHA (Header only) RELEASED
Post by: ForOhFor Error on April 08, 2011, 07:20:11 PM

I added a lot of comments. The second function has no comments, but you should be able to figure it out, it's almost the same as the first function.

Alpha version released, only fixes the header:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5869687/PythonModelHexer%20-%20HEADER%20ONLY%20ALPHA.rar
It should determine which function is needed.
If it doesn't work, please post a bug report here.

also, could I reverse-engineer this...??
like say I wanted to get a model from brawl into Pokepark or some game

I want my converter to be able to work both ways :/

Sure :D
BTW, I'm fine-tuning my BRRES separator to auto-fix the brres files output from it.

Title: Re: [Python] All-in-one import hexer. ALPHA (Header only) RELEASED
Post by: ForOhFor Error on April 10, 2011, 02:28:16 PM

I realized that, though going at header fixing on a model-by-model basis works quite well, the same cannot be said for material and polygon fixing.

Therefore, I'm doing separate counts of models, materials, and polygons.

BTW, material fixing is working. I think.
EDIT: My mistake. It's ALMOST working.

I'm gonna try my hand at brres conversion as well...

since the brres format is more like the blend format... somewhat
pac/pcs is actually closer

Melee's dat format is like a brres that can't be split D:

Oh, Tcll, check out the brres separator thread. I've implemented the model fixing into it, so it will fix every mdl0 in every brres in the input file.

Which means you can extract and fix all of pokepark's pokemon very, very quickly.
;D

You should also add a bone tree editor, like it automatically rigs the bones for brawl use. If that's possible, since most models from other games have a [censored]-ton of bones.

This program only changes a few bytes of data. Redoing bones, besides being completely unknown to me, would probably a complete restructure of the model.

In other terms, no.

you could create a program for my method of adding bones :/

here's an example for Pika (the one I know by heart):
bones:
TopN
-TransN
--XRotN
---YRotN
----HipN
-----HaveN (to be repositioned to the char's head or hand)
-----(add your bones here)
----ThrowN

^don't animate these bones...
(only animate your bones)
