Piecing together fragments of a model - KrakenOfTheSea - 07-14-2020
The models from a game that I’m ripping are fragmented in the game’s files. With that said, I would have to piece together the fragments to make a whole model. Is there an accurate way to do this? I’ve just used Blender to put together the parts, but that has required a small amount of guesswork, and I have a feeling that there’s a better way to do what I’m trying to do.

Depends on what you have. Do you have the skeleton? Or just the mesh. What are you assembling? Are you using the correct settings on the importer?

Currently, it looks like the only tool that can convert the game's model format (.IT3) to a more common format supports only .OBJ conversion and doesn't have any customisability.

Then you'll have to do it by hand then. If you have nothing to anchor it to then it's pretty much the only way.
