Earlier on I created a thread about Getting Lara Croft from her latest game, Tomb Raider: Underworld, into Gmod. I've decided to expand on that and create an entire pack of characters and objects from Tomb Raider: Underworld. All of the models were ripped directly from "Underworld" and have been made available using the fan-made XNALara program. The files are in OBJ format, and the characters are all T-Posed, and their textures are included, but need to be re-applied. I'll try to rig them for ragdolls and re-texture as much as them as I can in Maya...the rigged ones will be in FBX format.

-Also putting this out there: I'd love to see the Lara Croft model in this pack as a player model if someone can manage it...Thor's Hammer and Excalibur would make nice Crowbar replacements...especially if you could get Thor's Hammer to throw lightning bolts like in the game.

As the XNALara program is updated with new models I'll add them to the pack.

If you want to get your hands on the character models and the XNALara posing program used to export them into OBJ's, go here: http://www.tombraiderforums.com/showthread.php?t=147100

So far the models I'll include in the pack are the following...

CHARACTERS:

-Lara in Jungle shorts


-Lara in Casual outfit


-Lara in Wetsuit


-Lara's Doppleganger


-Atlantean Goddess, Natla


-Old friend-turned-enemy Amanda


-Alister


-Zip


-A tiger


-Diver Mercenary


-The Mayan Thrall



PROPS:

-One of Lara's Dual Pistols (Not pictured)
-I might simply have one Lara Character model with guns in her hands and another one with them holstered...

-An AK Rifle (Not pictured)

Thor's Hammer


-Excalibur


-Lara's Motorcycle

wow, nice man..

Sexy

~_~ oh my god man

you've ripped every model as OBJ. that's useless
the extractor exports to Collada, which retains the skin weights and skeleton. OBJ does not, it converts everything to a static mesh

by giving people static models, you don't increase the chances of them getting ported. plus you've created a whole new topic about it ..why. its pointless

The original topic was just about Lara, this was about a whole pack.

Also, I would try ripping them with the bones, except I don't have TRU for PC.

I have tried talking to the guy who created the program, he just just says to rip the models w/ the bones using an extractor he developed...but, as I've said, no PC version for me...

was dusan cool with the porting to gmod idea?

He seemed just fine with it, although he admitted to not hearing before about Garry's mod. I mean, he did give me a link to where I could download his ripping program, so it would appear I have his blessings on this endevor.

You should make a nice nude model.

Not for you, I won't.

Perhaps someone should make the most unattractive nude model possible and unleash it on the sex pose section. About the models, good work Ryu-Gi even if you didn't make the program. Give my thanks to the guy who made the program.

Wait.. there a sex pose section? WHHHHHHHHHHERE?

Yeah, I'm not sure where it is anymore. No mortal man should tread upon those grounds. But seriously you can probably find it via the search tool.

Right here http://www.facepunch.com/forumdisplay.php?f=263 The infamous Sex Pose Central

Awesome models.....beautiful tiger.
Good luck^^

Wait, I just had a thought...is it possible to port the fully rigged models from XNALara instead of the full game...?

I'm having this problem:

looks like you clicked on the wrong icon.

So, do you think it's possible to rip from XNALara instead of the actual game? Because if that's possible it'll be perfect.

XNA Lara allows you to export the current model or entire scene as obj file with material file. So you don't even have to rip content. And the raw materials are in the XNA Lara Data folder too.

As it was mentioned in here, the OBJ's are missing their textures and the bones. The method I'm referring to would allow us to have not only the model, but the textures AND the bones for posing.

It'd be great if the .mesh files could be converted to FBX files...

A TOIGER!
They all look really good. Is Lara's double the evil spirit from Underworld? I haven't played it.

The Doppelganger is sort of the 2.0 version of the Doppelganger from the first game, with a mind of its own and matching appearance to Lara. It was created to infiltrate Croft Manor. She's the one who blows it up.

The game was great, way too easy tho, nice models, hope they can be imported to gmod.

btw you forgot the white swimsuit.

That outfit hasn't appeared in XNALara yet.

I'm going to try to do some reasearch and see if it's possible to rip the textured, rigged models from XNALara so I don't have to shell out money just so I can rip the stuff from the game.

Wow... Nice job =D Can't wait until its in a pack.

Yeah, I am a Lara fan but I can't find any unexposed models of her. I'ma girl, so I really don't like seeing her in a bikini... or you know...

Looking good though, I'm looking forward to seeing the pack soon! ^ ^

lawl, cant wait to see if this can actually work on gmod after everythings done (obj.. lawl..) i would love to play as doppleganger :D

Oh wow i never noticed this thread.

I'm gonna try and get some of the animals, gmod needs more animals.

Someone brought back this thread?

Anyways, I guess I should mention that we're no longer going with the OBJ thing, we're going to try to use the bone structure directly from the game now.

ha, nobody ported the model yet? the models were already rigged with a skeleton. this shouldn't have taken anymore then like 1hour to just slap the model to the compiler.

I'm also awaiting some type of progress on this, as it's been awhile and we need a new Lara Croft for some bitchin' jungle adventuring screenshots.

nice rips

wow no hands :(

well I'll slap it in real quick

YAY! : D, i can't wait until the first lara croft model is released : D

go to hell pervert

Can someone convert the Lara files for me (Preferably in a Blender compatable format)? My computer won't let me use the program

Good job!

I have some troubles exporting form XnaLara to blender, I exported as .obj but when I imported it into blender it doesn't show anything, if someone knows how to do it right please tell me.

I most definitely dig this. Great work, can't wait to see the community port this stuff.
