If you don't mind, I'd really like to know what was your process to extract this model... I'm kinda rusty and I'm plan on extracting myself that new Maven model. :D

Thank you!
See ya around!

P.S.: Name's Sirusdark on Steam, if anyone wants to fight... >_<

I generally followed the guidelines here:
http://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f ... 62#p110862

I'm too lazy to write out a detailed tutorial and such :LOL:, but I think the one I linked is kinda simple to follow

If you get stuck either write here or PM me and I'll try to help you out :D

I am.

What I did so far:
-I was able to solve the "Can't convert 'bytes' object to str implicitly" python script error: I just had to use Python 2.6.x instead of 2.7.x or 3.5.x. (32bit).
-I extracted everything I wanted from the .dat files (.nif and .dds).
-My current setup was way too up-to-date. Had to downgrade Python and uninstall all my Blender version & scripts.
-nifskope was unable to extract anything from those .nif. It gives me all these errors: "Failed to load" + "The file could not be read - failed to load file header (version 1e020003, 30.2.0.3)" + Version 30.2.0.3 is not supported.
-I was able to get Blender 2.49 nif importer script to work, but I have no idea if I had specific settings to use... 'cause nothing got imported in Blender... lol

So I uninstalled the nif & Blender stuff and am now ready to start again fresh.

You can try to open the .nifs with Noesis and export them into some other format like .psk or .fbx

Thanks! I didn't know about Neosis!

I was able to open that .nif model and find the missing hand textures. Have a look! :D

Now, I tried to export in both suggested formats, but I can't load it in XNA. Somehow it can't export the Material Libray (mtl)...

EDIT: I also tried to export to ascii mesh and convert (using XNA Lara utilities), but that still doesn't work, yet...
