(I felt On topic was the place to put this, as it is video game hacking. If not, however, feel free to have a Mod move it.) I've familiarized myself with Okami's file system and what models are where, so I decided I'd try to hack it directly. As a test, I set myself the task of making Oki playable over Ammy...
In this video, you can see the results of this test. There are a few major bugs, listed here: -The body texture animates -FIXED -The body's model doesn't animate - Gonna be much tougher than I expected.. -Oki's bow is always there -FIXED I'll post a tutorial on how to replace the files soon enough...

I would, I've just misplaced their files. Of course, the karmic transformers basically allow you to assume their forms, so I thought Oki would be a nice test.
Fixed the animated textures glitch, btw. And got rid of the bow. 2/3 major bugs squashed.
Just need to get Oki to animate correctly...

I know why, I think. I now know that okami doesn't use CHR0s, but something else. Oki has one bone that changes the node id of everything below it by 1 - and I suspect that the models are animated by node id and not bone name.
So, I know what to change, it'll just take a while...

I think I meant to say bone index. But that doesn't make sense, does it? Then the model would be strangely distorted by bones moving to the position of the other index value... It may well be the node id that controls animation - if so, there's nothing I can do until Blackjack finishes the model rebuilder, due to this piece of info: It's starting to look like if the node id is changed, all of the primitives in every objects need to be updated. I think that I'll have to finish writing the objects before the model rebuilder can work without problems...
I may find a canine warrior and see if I can get more luck with it..

I'm just glad it's gone so well. Lots of failed attempts, but no actual crashes or freezes.

Actually, one last look at Oki.
I'm convinced: His tail is the key. Why would it animate, and not the rest of the body?
Looks like it IS bone index after all... SO when the rebuilder is done, I have to change that...

Interesting stuff there. Model swaps, however, are often tough to pull off.

Well, in this case, only a single bone is different from the model I'm replacing. Once the rebuilder is done, I can remove that bone and it should fix that.
