In skylanders I’ve changed the textures to look silly but getting the models is crazy impressive. Also I think you should look into collaborating with the other people into skylanders reverse engineering like boombringer, oneoddgamer and Jessethelamest.
I started to rip models myself recently as well. Mostly for educational reasons. To see how professionals did their craft and therefore I have to do it to make it good. It's fun
Honestly I would've recommended NefariousTechSupport's model ripping tools, it's so much easier to set up and it doesn't rip the whole scene, unlike NinjaRipper. Also the models would just look better
@@thedevatlasthat’s understandable, but the plugin is very easy to setup and you could’ve just asked the Reverse Engineering server for help, since this is an awful way of extracting models. The noesis plugin rips the characters with the rigs and you can even get the animations using other tools. I just think that uploading this could cause some misinformation. Also you tried the igModelConverter in this video, but it only works for 64-bit platforms. igArchiveExtractor works for all games on all platforms. I really think that using these newer tools would be so much better because it’s just more simple and easy to explain, and produces higher quality models that can be used for fan-games.
This being recommended to me on my TH-cam homepage leads me to wonder if I can rip sprites from a game I'm researching for a game idea I'm working on, specifically so I can make gameplay mock-ups in a way that takes screenshots from the original and evolves them procedurally to what I hope my game could look like, because I don't feel ready to design the visual elements that would go into the latter (I haven't even settled on what I'd want to use for UI fonts!). That game was originally made for an arcade platform that can be emulated by MAME, and there's a PC port for MS-DOS which seems to use a lot of the same sprites. I think MAME has some way to view decoded sprites, but I'm not sure if there'd be a way to rip those sprites, but I'd also want to rip sprites from the PC port in case those are higher resolution than the arcade sprites.
It is on my list of things to do, but I also don't want to do it wrong... I am a perfectionist on certain projects and I don't think I could match other groups. They have more skill and creative people :) I just wanted to share what I could find
You are far away to be alone to extract the Skylanders models from the games because one of my friend is extracting all the playable Skylanders characters as well but it for release a big Skylanders Model Pack once it will be done for Source Filmmaker for let anyone create their own 3D Skylanders animations content as Toy's For Bob isn't interest in the Skylanders serie anymore. Also it's not just a simple extraction because, with my advice, my friend upgrade the models by adding somes custom optional asset on them for we can add them or remove them. For example, if people remember about Skylanders Ring of Heroes, somes characters skin are different when they are in their Awaken Form so, for example, my friend was able with the Imaginators HD Ro-Bow model to do somes bonus skin for Ro-Bow like adding a custom Awaken Form for his HD Imaginators models based from ROH with the red hood and to restore somes missing things like the white circle pupil inside the blue Ro-Bow len eye since it disappear when the model is extracted from Imaginators by let Ro-Bow have just a full blue len without white pupil despite the Ro-Bow model in cutscene and in-game show he have a white circle pupil eye len on him if we look carefully so it can be added and removed with the Set Skin Bodygroup. So far my friend was able to finish: Ro-Bow, Wild Storm (+ Beast Form mode), Starcast (with custom animated stars texture on his body since it was particle and my friend can't export particle), Ambush, Mysticat, Wolfgang, Tae Kwon Crow, Dive-Clops, Cross Crow, Cuckoo Clocker, Krypt King (+ his unused Chop Chop Daddy skin so it include the chest open and the alt hair), Snap Shot (+ a custom skin based on his Academy Netflix Show), Jawbreaker, Smolderdash, Magna Charge, Trap Shadow, Blast Zone, Jet-Vac (+ a custom skin based on his Academy Netflix Show), Eye-Brawl, Tree-Rex, Hot Head, Thumpback, Prism Break, Chop Chop and 2 Arkeyan Robots from Giants (the friendly one and the one from the Chapter 1) and somes of the tiny version of the Skylanders but there are still a lot of work to do but, if people wonder, they are rigged and with bones so, of course, the people could use his big model pack for anything and not just animation like made their own fan game and more. So the next Skylanders he have planned to work next are Boom Bloom, Swarm and Hight Volt. Of course others stuff such Superchargers vehicles, NPC, Boss and more will get their own pack as well but it will have to wait that the Playable Skylanders Pack be done first. Also, fun fact, the Playable Skylanders texture are mainly exported from Trap Team, Swap Force and Superchargers for somes characters because my friend notice the Imaginators texture characters file are inferior than those from previous game so, it other words, more big texture size on a characters mean the model look in better quality and he even show me a example by do a comparison with two same Jet-Vac model but one with the Trap Team texture and the second with the Imaginators texture and the Imaginators texture are a bit pixelated. He is also able to export maps level from the Skylanders game but it gonna take a long time with the fact that he can't export Imaginators maps yet since it appear as broken in his software unlike others game who appears without issue. Meanwhile my friend agreed that I borrow some of his Skylanders models for use them in some video game modding such Super Smash Bros Brawl and I done Ro-Bow for Falco, Magna Charge for ROB, Wild Storm for Ike, Dive-Clops for Kirby, Eye-Brawl for Ganondorf and Tree-Rex for Donkey Kong but the mods are on Gamebanana and not perfect as I'm still a rookie in the modding and I was thinking to made Ambush for Marth and Starcast for Fox. However I would like to give a try to modding some others video game such Sonic Frontiers, Left 4 Dead 2, Zelda Twilight Princess, Mario Kart Wii New Super Mario Bros Wii, Grand Theft Auto IV, Mass Effect and more with the Skylanders characters but so far I think Mario Kart Wii could be the best game for change a bit from Super Smash Bros Brawl by made a Skylanders Kart Wii which every Mario characters are replaced by those from Skylanders. Plus I even request a Ro-Bow mods for replace Mario into the Super Mario 64 Coop Deluxe (aka Super Mario 64 PC Port like say some people since I'm not too much familiar with the PC port) with the model extracted from my friend so I can say I really want made the Skylanders serie still alive since I know a lot of good video game serie who end up forgotten for a very long time and who deserved better such Banjo-Kazooie, Star Fox, F-Zero and more. So good luck with your own project The Dev Atlas and, if you need anything, I can still add you in my friend list on Discord if you need somes help with Skylanders models so you can tell me your name and I add you. But, to be honnest, I would suggest you as fangame to made a Super Smash Bros fan game but with only the Skylanders characters, trust me it gonna be a big succeed since people enjoy battle video game since I see a lot of PVP video about the old Skylanders video game, which is sad that some of those last Skylanders video games such Imaginators didn't have the PVP side gamemode anymore.
I’m not sure why you are implying that your friend is the only one able to do this, the noesis plugin is very easy to setup so anyone can do it, the levels/maps are also very easy to extract from all of the games.
@@spyrosadventure I never say he was the only one, I have just say we working on a project together for release a public Model Pack. For the maps yeah but, as I have say, not for Imaginators yet due to the maps appear broken.
I have managed to rip models from these games (at least up to Trap Team, dunno about Superchargers or Imaginators). Ones I did rip were Drill-X and Mesmeralda. I do have a discord if you wanna discuss (same as my youtube name)
Idea: Rip Model from game edit it in blender then re import into the game... Dragons dogma is one im trying to find a way to do that... it seems that Ninja ripper is a very good way to go...but the after math of adding things back into the games, I cant seem to find. Thanks
Hello, I have hardly any knowledge about this, if not none, but I would like to know if it is possible to extract the model of the character Pandergast from Skylanders Superchargers, I would like to make a 3D printed figure but I cannot find a model anywhere
Hey can I ask you something how many models are you extending from All the games and if I may ask you should do comissions I like to see you helping people who need models
That's a good point, I think it would be really cool to extract all of the models and put them on GitHub or something like the models resource. I don't think I'm going to do commissions just because of time restraints :)

remake the Skylanders 3ds games in hd.
Imagine 1 Skylanders game, completely remastered but in that one game, you have access to all the games. 🤯
this deserves way more attention, really cool video
what a complicated process omg! i’m glad all that trial and error ultimately bore fruit. also great editing, very engaging
amazing video!!! super interesting
Another smashing video, you really have a knack for explaining things! 👍
I started to rip models myself recently as well. Mostly for educational reasons. To see how professionals did their craft and therefore I have to do it to make it good. It's fun
damn i would love to have that hot streak model, really awesome!

You should try and do it!
You deserve more, great video

Wait….. does this mean you’re making the fanm Skylanders game to some sort of degree??? even just a mod that’s not a joke would be insanely cool

do they have bones? (can you moove the model around)
Sadly no, but it is not the end of the world to rerig models. It's just VERY tedious
