(Solved) How to decompile a Model if decompiler and NWN-Explorer fails

I would like to decompile models but in some rare cases I got a crash.

  • the old NWN-Compiler (1.69) crashes at once
  • the NWN-Explorer (Version 1.83) displays the model correctly, but crashes, if I go to the ascii tab

Example: trm02_d04_02.mdl (A tile from Mediveal Rural 2)

Latest info is here.

For EE, I find that the latest Clean Models works well.

For 1.69, I use nwnmdlcomp, but if that’s crashing, if I’m reading the wiki correctly, the old Clean Models is an option. Maybe the new Clean Models works if the model has no EE features? Others may know more.

Latest cleanmodels will work even with EE features but it won’t output things that work with 1.69. Not sure what you’d have to change to fix that but perhaps someone more knowledgeable can chime in.

Thanks Proleric and May, it works! I wonder, that NWN-Explorer didn’t crash anymore with the decompiled model.

However, tossing out unwanted stuff would be my least problem. I became quite good in throwing away things lately :slight_smile:
