Yu-Gi-Oh! models for the Oculus Rift

Post by **jeffythedragonslayer** » February 27th, 2014, 10:03 am

Hi there all! So, I'm writing a Yu-Gi-Oh! fangame for the Oculus Rift, much like Kaiba Corp developed holographic technology in the anime. I think people would like to see holographic Yu-Gi-Oh monsters in 3D, but I haven't had much success getting the models from Forbidden Memories.

There is a file on the CD called MODEL.MRG which according to this thread, contains the models, sounds, textures, and code.

The other thing I tried is ripping the models from a running emulator. I was able to get the textures with OGLE extractor, but the vertex data is corrupted and appears all flat. I also tried 3D Ripper DX which outputs 3dr MAX files, but they simply have no data.

Does anyone know any successful methods of extracting PS1 models? If this proves fruitless, I might just use parallax mapped images from the cards.

It's not corrupted. PS1 lacks a Z-Buffer, that's why you get flat models.

So it is impossible to extract the file "MODEL.MRG" in game "Yugioh - Falsebound Kingdom"?

really needed to get the models for me to work in an augmented reality project.

if anyone can help me I will be grateful ...

It depends. They might have an encryption or scramble algorithm so people can't use their model data, in which case, it will need to be decoded. You're best talking with 'Ughman' in the IRC channel about it since that's his specialty.
