MUA Offsets Central

[Noelemahc]

I'm not sure we've had a thread for this yet.
Let's list and sort out the full offsets for the default models of MUA. Allow me to begin (I just spent forty minutes on this and I don't intend to lose it!).

Here's 1504.IGB, Ultimate Iron Man.

Size   Texture Data     Specular Map      Normal Map
1024     862326           2143654              3323302
512    mip of prev.       4371878               452726
256   mip of prev.      mip of prev.           378998
128    348534              444534               845942
64     343406             345454               364918
32     2140446          mip of prev.         mip of prev.
16     2141102             2140974              370550
8      2141278             2141246                N/A

The first two are color-flipped alphaless DXT1s. The third one is a monochrome DXT5 (only green and alpha channels are used).
I list them with the mip entries and not actual offsets as nba2k's program doesn't support multi-texture insertion yet in any case, and I, personally, still want to fool around with the extra maps for some possible effects. This one's actually mipped down to 4x, but I chose not to write those out, would'a been way too redundant. Also, I simply failed to find the 8x normal map. Sorry about that I can tell you that the 4x is lodged between the 16x and 8x mips of the other two, though

20 more minutes, and here we have one more.

2901.igb, Modern Enchantress (classic had a much scarier head-dress, AFAIK).

Size   Texture Data     Specular Map      Normal Map
512       296192             535760                 666832
256         MIP               932976                 470224
128         MIP               289968                 266648
64        930856              287128                 MIP
32        930192               MIP                 929152
16        930728              929024              289696
8         298160              928984              932912

This one's actually more revealing than the previous one, as it tells me we SHOULD specular map the skin, but NOT normal map it. Although I really wonder what would happen if I did

EDIT: Holy crud! 2999.igb is not an Enchantress alternative model! It's Leather Jacket Wolverine from the cutscenes! But, sadly enough, not skeleton-mapped, i.e. unusable in-game.

Hey Noel, question for ya since I haven't found the answer referenced anywhere else.

Has anyone had any luck with figuring out how to edit the specular mapping on a model. i.e. alter raised and lowered parts. I don't know if it's been done, and I'm just missing it, if it hasn't been attempted, or if it simply isn't doable to our knowledge. If it is doable, is it just like normal? Thanks.

Yeah, you use Texture Finder to find the starting offset for the largest mip; then extrac it via hex (because TF treats alpha channels badly, and you NEED them!) into a DDS (you need a DXT5 two-channel header; though any DXT5 will work equally well); open it in PS.
Green channel is the horizontal volume; Alpha channel is vertical. Once you see it, you'll get it
Edit, export to 32-bit RGBA BMP; import via MUASkinner as DXT3 to every offset this thing is present at. Poof, it works.

[darkmythology]

ahhh I think I may be screwed by using my bootleg open source photoshop, since it seems to be screwy for the alpha. I'll give it a shot though...

[THX]

hmmm would this be beneficial to include all this data in a FAQ?  I guess in case you eff something up and wanna go back to default..

[Teancum]

I'm way lost on how to use Texture finder.  Anyone have MK's texture offsets?

Next stop.

Don't lose them The Normal map offsets below 32x MIGHT be off by one quad (that would be 16 bytes) either way - the damn thing is chock full of redundant copies and the lack of decent voluminity in the normals makes them indecipherable after 64x.

The same warning applies to normals as with the above set (but pertains only to the 16x mip, I'm dead certain about the other two).

He doesn't have any of that fancy mapping, as he is an XML2 port.

anyone's got Spidey Symbiote's?

I could only find:

Technically an XML2 offset

sorry guys, but anyone can help me out with the smaller values of this offset?

would be much appreciated.

hmmm... I am trying to find those, too.
I will post them here when I find them, ok?
It's really hard (for me) to differentiate between the black costume and the black areas of the file...
