3d models and textures ripping

I been trying to rip the 3d models lately with some applications, its a bit complicated because it seems the game runs with opengl and there are not many rippers for it.
And i want those models for reference and archival purporse, i dont want all of that content to get lost once the game is shut down.

Heres my best rip yet, done with 3dvia running the 32bit executable and a 3dsmax 2008 script that imports the resulting 3dxml files there and you can convert them later to any usable format, links of the tools here.

The ripper tends to fail a lot tho, with all bots and it doesnt get all the parts from most moebots, this was a very lucky rip.

So if anyone finds a better way please msg me or comment your workflow.

Also anyone knows how to launch the game executable directly without going thru the launcher? what are the launch parameters required for that?
That would help me a lot because there are many rippers that cant bypass the launcher and need to execute the game directly.

Im also looking to get the models from CB2jp before is gone, can anyone give me their account orteach me how to register? I cant find a way to log in, not sure what im doing wrong here

Funny I tried to do the same last year but this is the far I could get.

Maybe try to go in small areas with less players/npcs like outposts in arcantus.
Now about CB2 since the server will shutdown in June they turned off the register page so no new accounts allowed.

Spoiler:

Seems like you never converted the files? is pretty easy with the 3dsmax converter in linked, a couple of clicks and is ready to export, give it another try, it works in 3dsmax 2008.

im having the most luck in the resort area, but the 3dvia printscreen always fails to get any textures and uvmaps from the bots or anything that isnt hd, only had luck with hd moes like Zero Saber Sirl and Destructor girl, still trying to find a better workflow, ill probs upload them as soon as i get a good number of assets.

When i tried i didn't have the 3DS Max installed and didn't know about the plugin. I'll try again soon. I want the Lily models.

In this case you can export the models from the skin edit. Unless the UV map changes completely because the rip method. Try on a small area.

Unfortunately my friends gave up about CB2 when the BR/US versions died and never bothered to go to the JP server.

I heard Shidokun ripped the CB models or something like that and xrunpet ripped some bots from CB2 long time ago.

Oof dang it, but you know a lot of people here more than me, if you can ask in your circles it would be great, i can even try to get any models you wanted.

I just found the xrunpet thread and asked for his methods thanks a lot for mentioning it, but without a cb2jp account theres no hope for me to get any.

Hi

Bumping with more rips

Spoiler:

Where on FF I don't think so. I'll check around.

Can you try to exporting School Momiji?

Export everyone, put it on a mega file directory. story solved. .-.
mega, google, iunno, just pick one.

The rip tool is not working for me... I even tried to do on my old PC that I got right the first time...
I just wanted to save Lily and Eris models...

Looks great. I'll try the program as well so I can get Astralyzer and Vestia.

So extracting models is not hard it's just pain right now.

Lily Rain Model :

EXTRACT EVERYTHING

ps: save the hair textures

Anti says maps can be dumped by just loading them into map editor and then exported.

Central Area

Questions: The game still holds the old maps like the Eihwaz flower field, Anniversary area and maybe the commemorative ones like the Halloween themed resort area?
And how about the panels that holds the Crim image?

didn't read the whole thread but try asking around VR communities, when i was trying to learn blender they had some crazy resources

toss me an elisa model so i can go get it rigged for vrchat

NinjaRipper works on CB2 32-bit client. Despite through the launcher.
However, latest CB1 only provides an integrated client, so I can't find a way to run the 32-bit version on my 64-bit os.
Does anyone have a 32-bit os to check if NinjaRipper also works on CB1?

Hmmmmm not sure if we can independently collective ripping for this. Like, multiple peeps ripping characters and bots for faster rips.

Tho about ripping stuff, does it have to be you having the bots?

I've sent necrodrakath the info of one of my CB2 accounts, so i hope that helps

By the way, you guys might probably be able to store the models here
https://www.models-resource.com/
And the portraits/text/font here
https://www.spriters-resource.com/
Also you guys could make a thread on the chans or create a MEGA folder with a github to have a log of updates, or something, i dunno, it doesn't seems to be that hard to have a centralized database nowdays

Spoiler:

Yeah, why not post about this on more pages like 4chan or something? You could get just enough attention to get some more people to give the help you guys need!
Or not, but still.
