# RogueSquadron Extractor - MODEL module

Inspired by the work of **dpethes** (https://github.com/dpethes/rerogue) :clap:

This set of git repos are a compilation of tools coded in C to make RS modding far more than a dream!
The collection consist of few independants modules, each of them deals with specific data like sound, textures, heightmaps, etc...

All modules are independants. This is the **'MODEL'** module.

[![Build Status](https://ci.jcsmith.fr/job/JCS-Prod/job/RSE-Model/job/master/badge/icon)](https://ci.jcsmith.fr/job/JCS-Prod/job/RSE-Model/job/master/)

## MODEL MODULE

It's extract 3D rendering datas from Rogue Squadron 3D (PC) game models files (HOB).

This module can do:
- Extract objects inside HOB files to Wavefront OBJ format,
- Extract automatically inside subfolder (usefull when you have multiples objects to extract),
- Multiple inputs files.

## TODO

- Add textures to models.
- Discover all unknowns fields, animations, bones mesh, etc.

### Using

`RSE-Model_"version" [options] <hob files...>` or you can simply drag&drop HOB files on it.

A futur main program can extract all HOB files directly from DAT file.
Due to issue with copyrights, I can't provide samples... You need to extract HOB files yourself.

- -h    		Print this message
- -v,-vv		Activate verbose/debug output mode respectively
- -no-subdir	Extract textures directly inside current folder
- -no-mtl		Disable materials datas export with OBJ model

### Dependencies

- obj-lib: as obj file exporter. (https://github.com/rlk/obj)

### Compiling

You can compile on both Windows (MinGW) or native Linux system thanks to CMake.

To compile, just clone (**don't forget git submodules**) and launch cmake: 

```shell
cmake .
make
make install
```

We can also use cross-compilation (after installing `mingw64` and `cmake` packages on your distrib):

```shell
mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DGNU_HOST=x86_64-w64-mingw32 \
	-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../mingw_cross_toolchain.cmake \
	..
cmake --build .
```
