I thought i can get T-pose with that code.
By the way, can you show me the structure of chara.one file?
Does it like http://wiki.ffrtt.ru/index.php/FF8/FileFormat_ONE

Following your post, i knew the animations are stored in chara.one files. I just thought i can get T-pose with that code.
----------------------------
I found this in an old topic.
My guess on how the chara.one files work. Might be incorrect because I didn't do any disassembly or testing in-game.

Code: (Chara.one Header Hypothesis) [Select]
0x00: Number of PC and NPC models (32-bit). Might not count for calculating offsets.
0x04: First model's header (detailed below)

PC Model chara.one header:
0x00: Pointer to animation data? (32-bit)
0x04: Size of the animation data or whatever it is. (32-bit)
0x08: Size again.
0x0C: MCH number? (32-bit? Upper 16-bits might determine whether header refers to PC or NPC)
0x10: 4 bytes
0x14: MCH name? Not sure if used. (4 bytes)
0x18: 4 unknown bytes

NPC header:
0x00: Pointer to first TIM (32-bit)
0x04: Size of TIM & Model data (32-bit)
0x08: Size again.
0x10: MCH-type header possibly starts here. Offsets are relative to the TIM image.
After the model data pointer: 8 unknown bytes.

Both types usually end with the hex bytes "EE EE EE EE" after the unknown bytes, though there may be exceptions.

Edit: The next to last section (the section pointed to by the DWORD at 0x38 of the model data header) of the MCH model data looks similar to what I guessed to be the animation data in the chara.one files. So that might be the pose information.

Code: (Animation Section hypothesis) [Select]
Section Header:
WORD Number of animations

Animation Header:
WORD Number of frames
WORD Number of joints (Koral labeled them bones.)

In that old thread, Qhimm said the animations were stored using 4 bytes per node. By counting I think there might also be an additional 6 bytes per frame, but I'm not absolutely sure.
Is it the structure of char.one ?
It look like http://wiki.ffrtt.ru/index.php/FF8/FileFormat_ONE, but i can't check when it is npc or main field model

32-bit? Upper 16-bits
Does it like this?
Code: [Select]
type = readUInt()
type >> 16

I got offset of animation data in d024.mch (low Rinoa model)


I do something like this
Code: [Select]
unsigned char rots[4];
s16 rotations[3];
for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
rotations[i] = rots[i] << 2 | (rots[3] >> 2 * i & 3) << 10;
=>
Code: [Select]
rots1 = readUByte()
rots2 = readUByte()
rots3 = readUByte()
rots4 = readUByte()
rotation1 = (rots1 << 0x02) | ((rots4 << 0x0A) & 0xC00)
rotation2 = (rots2 << 0x02) | ((rots4 << 0x08) & 0xC00)
rotation3 = (rots3 << 0x02) | ((rots4 << 0x06) & 0xC00)
when i print 'rotations', it didn't look like degrees of rotation.
What should i do to get correct degrees of rotation?

I write script like this, is it right ?
Code: [Select]
bs.seek(animofs, NOESEEK_ABS)
animCount = bs.readShort()
framCount = bs.readShort()
boneCount = bs.readShort()
coordinatesOffset = bs.readBytes(6)
gido = []
for i in range(0,boneCount):
byte1 = bs.readByte()
byte2 = bs.readByte()
byte3 = bs.readByte()
byte4 = bs.readByte()
rotation1 = (byte1 << 0x02) | ((byte4 & 0x03) << 0x0A)
rotation2 = (byte2 << 0x02) | ((byte4 & 0x0C) << 0x08)
rotation3 = (byte3 << 0x02) | ((byte4 & 0x30) << 0x06)
xyz = {
"x": rotation1,
"y": rotation2,
"z": rotation3
}
gido.append(xyz)
when i dump 'xyz', all number is really big :(

Can you explain more about bone and animation data?

6
If you don't mind, can you share tool/source read data in mch fie?
I stuck at putting bone to right position and exporting animation.

7
there is any tool to read MCH file after export from main_chr.fs?
i need main character's animation :(

8
I can get battle animation but not main character animation.
Noesis can't read character.one, where can i find main characters?

9
wow, thank you so much  :D.

10
Is there any way to export animation of character?
The wiki is down, i don't find any information about this issue.

sorry about irrelevant question,
where can i find document or tutorial about 'how to writing script to unpack file' like touphScript?
I don't know what keyword to find on google.

12


i can't see any 3d model :(
and do you know how to get animation of model?

13
if you don't mind, Rinoa's Toolset use for what version (steam, pc, psx) of FF8?
Before use Rinoa's Toolset, should i unpack something?
Thanks.

I lost font color when putting font image back to menu.lgp. What program should i use to keep all color?

A few day before, ff7 still can read

it's my fault. if compiling ts on vs, it can't read utf8.
now i can replace character with ts, but i don't know why ff7 don't use font in window.bin anymore.
I redraw font in window.bin, Makou_Reactor can read it but ff7 still show original character.

You haven't yet grasped that ffvii has its own text encoding, touphscript handles converting between utf8 and the ffvii format.
I know the thing you say.
But ts only call process a part of utf8, if you debug with vietnamese character you'll see that.
before ts convert character to vector, it must read character from text file. In source code, ts use string type to store character. It can not handle some character like ọ, ư, ơ.
I can modify readText function, using wstring to store vietnamese character, but can't convert back to byteVec in stdString2Tex function

I'm guessing your issue is your trying to get it to read characters that aren't in the character table.
Correct.
but in c++ language, string type only can store ascii.
I think even i can put vietnamese into flevel file, there is no way to force ff7 system recognize new symbol.
I should accept that from beginning :( i have spent two week for nothing.

I understand the way which replacing characters in the table.
---
As you say "utf8 is a variable width encoding, from 1-4 bytes",
i see stdString2Text() in source code,  it read all characters one by one so when reaching utf8 character it throw error. ts doesn't accept utf8 character when reading from text.

I see that table, but the problem is:
- ASCII is 2 byte so string type can store character one by one. And all ASCII character in ffstring.cpp, so i can't add more
- utf8 is 4 byte, string type split one character to two so i lost original character.
If i modify source from string to wstring, editing all function may be a bad choice:(
-----
I think even when i can input uft8 character, it doesn't mean ff7 system can read that. Unless ff7 have font file like .OTF, .TTF or .FNT

I give up on inputting utf8 character. It's too complicated to modify source.
String can not store uft8, only ascii table.

No, I use mingw64 which you gave me, maybe you compiled with 32bit ;D.
I remove old touphScript.exe.res and compile again,  now i get touphScript.exe.
Could you tell me how to do with character like ọ ế ớ ...

actually, vs and g++ are the same, the different is vs have UI.
Finally i can link libz.a with this syntax:
Code: [Select]
LDLIBS :=  -L/ -lz -lshlwapi -lShell32But i got another error:
Code: [Select]
x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: i386 architecture of input file `touphScript.exe.res' is incompatible with i386:x86-64 output

It still got that error: Errors list
My makefile: Makefile
----------
Anyway i ported ts to visual studio for easily debugging.
This is original text
This happen when i put uft8 character into text file image
What should i do to keep original uf8 character

where can i get libz?
I used mingw in the link and it got the same error.
