How do I extract .bin files? - ItsMeGamerAndBFDIer7 - 11-02-2018

Hello. I extracted the files of Mario Party 10, but I looked in some of the game files, until I saw a file that had something that said "pc" or "npc", followed by a number, followed by the character's name, and the file was .bin. I believe that those are where the character models are, because I extracted the game for extracting character models. Any help?

Hi ItsMeGamerAndBFDIer7! Would you mind sending some sample files for examination?
Thanks in advance!~

P.S. Good username, BFDI is great Smile

In this .zip file are some of the files I want to extract.

Alright, taking a look at the BIN file provided, it seems to actually be a PAC file. Tried to extract it using a couple of QuickBMS scripts, but no luck so far. I may just have to go in and manually extract the files, but so far it looks to contain the following files:
coin_c.gtx, coin_s_1.gtx, it03_coin.bnfm, it03_coin.bnfmsa, it03_coin.mcf, qblock_body.gtx, ref_coin.gtx
I'll keep you updated on progress of the extraction, but if you'd like to help out or take a look for yourself grab a hex editor (I prefer HxD : https://mh-nexus.de/en/hxd/)!

Alright, I was able to extract the files successfully using one of Random Talking Bush's QuickBMS scripts, specifically the one for Mario Party 10 (the script can be found here: RTB's Model Importers & BMS Scripts). For future reference, check that list of scripts for what you may need, RTB has created a lot of useful stuff. Smile

Anyways, here are the files: it03_coin.zip

Hope this helps, cheers!

Well, apparently, when the file was extracted, it did not give me anything.

The .zip file I provided or the .bin file?

I was extracting another .bin file from the same game, and nothing showed up when I extracted the file.

May I see the file?

Here it is.

It worked just fine for me. Make sure you're using the right script, that being the one found here.
What steps did you do and where do you think it went wrong?


RE: How do I extract .bin files? - ItsMeGamerAndBFDIer7 - 11-08-2018

I used the wrong script.


RE: How do I extract .bin files? - ItsMeGamerAndBFDIer7 - 11-08-2018

OK, it worked. Thanks.
