Have a look at the "nor" textures for a reference point, if they're symmetrical / have a different aspect ratio than the "col" textures, then they'll need to be modified. Similarly, eye textures need to have both the left and right sides mirrored (but only halfway each).

Using Eevee as an example, you're looking to have results like these:


I've setup the texture like the normal, however it still doesn't line up for some reason

Did you find a way to export animations? or it is still not possible? Toolbox works fine now with rigging btw

Does anybody know where I can find the map models? I can't find the gfbmdl files for the interior maps, like the lab or the PKMN center.

for once I love that the files and folders have actual names and not the likes of a/0/1/2/3

Maps are in romfs\bin\field\model
Worth noting that textures are in a completely separated folder, romfs\bin\archive\field\area\texture

Talking about textures, I found something interesting. Remember the infamous tree? Turns out the texture was never low res - it was straight up a bad texture.

It's funny because the game has lots of much better textures but that tree was a key part of the game's controversy.

Someone has already found a way to extract the animations from the models. As much as I try I can't find the way. I have Toolbox and the "gfbmdl" filesCan anyone help me or guide me? Thank you.

I've been out of the pokemon modding scene for about 3 years. How do i use ohana to extract these models?

Nah, you need to use Switch Toolbox

Forgive me for getting me into your conversation, but how did you manage to use the Ohana for The Sword & Shield models if they come in GFBMDL.

I didn't, just though ohana could do that now. It can't.

They didn't. Ohana is only useful for the 3DS games' models.

For the Switch games' model you can either:
1) Use Autodesk 3DSMax and the MAXScript that Bush uploaded to import the models, export as FBX, then import into Blender.
Or...
2) Use Switch Toolkit (which I haven't used, myself, so I don't know how it works).


RE: Pokémon 3DS/Switch Model Ripping Project - lethal234 - 11-19-2019

Hey all, just trying to find out what the green channel in Swsh's amb texture is used for. Assuming the Red channel is for occlusion.
Not sure if it's for highlights/outlines or if the whole texture is actualy supposed to be for occlusion.

Not yet, and even if anything were to be submitted, it won't be accepted until the end of the month at the earliest so that people can see all of the new Pokémon in-game first before the floodgates open up for the new content on the Resources.

Thank you for sharing the model.
Can you extract GYM Map?
