Title: [PSX] Battle scenes exporter (2011-10-20)
Post by: Zidane_2 on 2011-10-21 02:53:58

Hello everything. Not far ago i rewrite my battle scenes viewer into obj-exporter on C.
As result numerous screenshots:

Source code and compiled exe: http://www.mediafire.com/?673zmxl89ei38x5 (http://www.mediafire.com/?673zmxl89ei38x5)

For converting your need:
1. Extract files from ff9.img(not CD-image, it's file from any game CD) by ffix_img_extr.exe (ffix_img_extr.exe <path/to/ff9.img> <path/to/extract>)
2. Convert files from dir '6' by ffix_bs_converter.exe (  ffix_bs_converter.exe  <path/to/file>)

That is amazing! I'll have to see if I can get it to run on MacOS sometime.

Does that mean you can now edit the backgrounds?

Unfortunately it's one-way converter. But yes, you may open and edit scenes in any 3d-editor.

I re-upload all of Zidane_2's tools of Final Fantasy IX (well, those that I obtained at the time at least). You can get them here:
Zidane_2 Tools (https://www.hiveworkshop.com/attachments/zidane_2_tools-rar.301501/)

There are duplicates in the root folder (but I think that there is more in the root folder than in the sub-folders). You will get among them a tool for viewing the Battle Scenes, the World Map, the Field walkmeshes and backgrounds, Model animation (of the bones, in Blitz3D format if I understand correctly)... For most of them, you'll need to extract the data from the disc .img using the tool "ffix_img_extr":
1) Use an ISO tool (like CDMage) to extract the .img from the binary ISO file of the game,
2) Use "ffix_img_extr" (it's a command-line tool) to extract the files that will be used by the other tools.

You may want to recompile the programs (the source code is included) ; some of them ("ffix_img_extr" in particular) didn't work anymore on my Windows 7.

Only works on the PSX version.
