Sorry ARMs, but I think there is no such an editor. And the reason is that, due to the way the game reads the data, it seems quiet unlikely that it will accept any externally created contents. I supose it won't be that problematic if you simply change a few values on a file I know, but I never tried.
By the way, battle model animations (not the models themsevles)  seem to share the same format in the PC version and the PSX version. I don't have a clue how weapon models work though. I've heard they have their own animations but I don't know where they are.

Since what you wrote is fairly vague, wouldn't that be a simple case of opening it up with winrar, then extracting it?  :wink:

Lol yea that will probably do it, what I meant to say was that the kimera that I downloaded came in a RAR file and I don't think I have winRAR

search for that .dll on the internet and add that with the regsvr32.exe trick ^^.

hey, i wanted to drop in and say that this is an awesome project.  thanks for all of the time all of you have put into collectively debugging it!

I saw this request back on page 5 or something (i read them all, but i can't remember which one it was) about which files (rough range) contain each of the characters' parts.

I found this link a while back, and its been super helpful.  combined with Kimera, I feel like I can pretty much do anything :D  It's an outline of what all the parts map to.

If I remember right, the file is in a '.rar' format, which is NOT built into Windows (doesn't matter if you've got win95 or Vista Ultimate).  It's an archive type, like a '.zip'

so download a program that can handle rar files... i'd recommend 7zip, personally.  there's one called Winrar, but I hate the way that it bugs me all the time to register it (like the ol' Winzip did).

so get 7zip and then make sure in its settings that you have it set to handle rar files.  You should be cooking with gas after that.

Okay, thanks I found that, and got it to install. Now, the only problem is, is that I don't know what to do next to get Kmera Running. It tells me that I am missing a file, component "comdlg32.ocx", or that it is invalid. How do i fix this?
P.S. thanks for the help dude.

mmmm... you might be in the relm of dll hunting now.  I had no problems when I installed on XP.  It up-and-ran without any issues.  usually these sorts of things are found in the windows/system32 folder.  usually google-searching a filename like that will return a page that you can download new versions of it.  (i'd make sure it's indeed the system32 folder you need to paste it into, since i guess it could be just the "system" folder, or even "windows" folder.  A website with info on that particular file would likely tell you which folder its supposed to be found in.)

Good luck!  You may have to find a few of those dll/ocx files.  Just keep googleing each one until you have them all.

Hmm.. I read through the pages for ver. 0.84 and no one else mentioned this but I can't add any parts to my bones. I'm trying to replace Field Cloud with Field Aerith and I've been following Scopicus' tutorial but it just won't let me add Aeris's ponytail to the back of her head. This a bug? I followed the guide exactly so I don't think it's something I've done, though it's always possible.

Edit: Ok, I found the ver. 0.83b earlier in the thread and tried adding the part to the bone in that but still nothing. The only thing that happens is my model is turned upside down... Not a glitch then, sorry about that. Though can anyone point me to where I may be going wrong? I did follow the guide exactly....

Okay first of all I apologize for performing "necromancy" and reviving this old topic.... but it just i cant get it to work on my PC... :(... and i want to start character modeling and start doing things on this forum..

Okay here is my problem I click on the Kimera(084b) icon and.......

Kimera 081

Run Time error '713'

Class not registered.
You need the following file to be installed on your machine
msstdfmt.dll

Where do i find or get this file?????

Thank you,
Broken Crow

P.S. and again i apologize for reviving an old topic....


*edit* okay never mind about where the finding it part.. I should have read the board more thoroughly sorry.......... but how do i put it in my PC???????? i have it downloaded but????regsvr32.exe doesn't work for me :(


I get this....

To register a module, you must provide a binary name.

Usage: regsvr32 [/u] [/s] [/i[:cmdline]] dllname
/u-unregistered server
/s-silent; display no message boxes
/i- Call DllInstall passing it an optional [cmdline]
when used with /u calls dll uninstall
/n- do not call DllRegisterServer; this option must be used with /i


this is what i get when i try to open the  regsvr32.exe.

please help...

Thank you,
BrokenCrow
