I'm a hobbyist Unreal Engine engineer. Mostly the work I have done is in games like MechWarrior 5 and I had a hand with development with Yooka-Laylee" "which was a Unity game" Also had reverse engineer experience with a game called UCGO "Universal Century Gundam Online which I reverse engineered the 3d file format, and data files. So I'm no stranger to videogame engineering. That being said, lately I expressed interest in Final Fantasy 7 which is one of my original all time fav games. To be blunt I am thinking about re-engineering FF7 in UE5. Yes I know this sounds redundant but its mostly for my enjoyment and I figure ill learn a few more things along the way.
Specifically what I need help with "and I am sure I can procure this information myself but I'm being lazy" is that I just need to know what tools can extract data from FF7 such as 3d models, animations, camera angles, music, sounds, maybe battle damage/time algorithms, and textures. "I just found out where to find all this data which I'm surprised it's so detailed. I technically have everything I need to remake the game. I guess now it's a put up or shut up type of ordeal. I'll start working on the game and make and post up my progress every now and then. If I can get momentum going I may even take a crack at ff8 but no promises".
