SourceIO VS blender3d_import_psk_psa

Hi, I am trying to import NMRiH models and animation into blender, I tried Blender Source Tool SourceIO and plumberr, but none of them works. If these tools can't do this job, is there any other tool can help me?

I extract models and textures from the SFM and GMod workshops using this website and this Add-on to import them into Blender.

Then use this Blender addon: https://github.com/REDxEYE/SourceIO

The path for the model is models/extras/info_speech.mdl. If you'd like to use it outside of Source, you can extract the model with Crowbar and convert to a more usable format like .fbx through Blender with SourceIO.

Add this addon to Blender and click import, source engine, mdl, then navigate to your workshop items.

There is an online resource of Yakuza models already ported by someone named Tension, just use SourceIO to import them to Blender and start editing/adjusting them for your own use from there. Note, disable the BlenderVertexShader in the import settings as they're not used by the models and are insanely complex, slowing Blender down.

A great use of your skills would be to bring SFMs animation tools like the motion editor and Source's content library to something more ubiquitous like Blender. We already have great importing tools for Source's content thanks to REDxEYE's SourceIO tools: https://github.com/REDxEYE/SourceIO/

IMO though, better to block out in Hammer then import it into blender using the free plugin https://github.com/REDxEYE/SourceIO

Option A. Use the SourceIO Blender Plugin to directly import GoldSrc .mdl into Blender

I extract models and textures from Deadbydaylight and Deep Rock Galatic using UE Viewer and import them using this Add-on.

I extract the models from the game with UE Viewer, and use this add-on to import them into Blender. The Textures for the most part (the tattoos are also extracted and for some materials like the skin I just use shaders) are painted and UV edited by me.

Are they in .pskx/.psk format? When you extract a model from a UE game, it will export as .psk, and you need to use blender to import those mesh files then export as .fbx for the UEFN to recognize it. Now blender doesn’t come with native support to import .psk files since those are UE specific and you will need to download a blender plug-in to enable that support

All things considered, this part is actually pretty easy if you know how to use Gildor's UE Viewer tool. There's a GUI you open and point to your game files, and it returns a bunch of packages for you to search through. Most of the time I was able to find the relevant models by simply looking for the level's prefix S_BW_Enter_*. This will let you export a .PSK file that can be imported into blender with a plugin.

Check out UE Viewer. You can download it from https://www.gildor.org/en/projects/umodel, and it is completely legal for use on Unreal Engine games. NB: you will need to specify the precise engine version of the Spyro Reignited Trilogy, so you may need to check the .exe file details. In addition, the exported models will be in the PSK format, so you'll need to download the Blender PSK/PSA importer addon. Unfortunately, this is no longer maintained, so you might need to download Blender 2.83. Hope this helps!

I extracted them using UE viewer and using an addon for blender, the textures I painted myself

Anyways, here's the link to the plugin: https://github.com/Befzz/blender3d_import_psk_psa

If you can get it to export them without crashing, you can export them as psk files and use this addon to open them
