THIS IS LITERALLY EVERYTHING
LITERALLY E V E R Y T H I N G

But I've done some minor sorting to organise the most critical aspects - Player/NPC/LI assets, but given the volume of assets now, it's a bit of a slog. Textures and OBJ's have so far been given this treatment, I am still working on the FBX dump, but figured this may be useful in it's current stage. I have not verified every single thing is included, given this is a literal dump y'all but I've not noticed anything obviously missing. This is my personal rip and thus isn't pretty on the inside, I search for files via character codes in windows explorer, because it's just so much otherwise.

Ignore files marked "UNSORTED" if you do not want to sift through a bajillion gb of files.

Make sure you read the technical information section for more information and why you may need those bajillion files.

It's disgusting in the FBX folder but I want to get the files up at least, so there is NO organisation but I'll work on it over the next few days and reupload sorted files 👍

PERMISSIONS FOR EVERYONE WHO ACCESSES THIS

Yeah, I am putting them up here, so maybe people will actually read it.

Now, this is a game rip resource, the assets belong to In/fold, keep that in mind when you use these assets. Obviously, this means this resource may vanish at no notice (It's fun to stay at the Y.M.C.A), so download it while/when you can.

DO NOT:

- FOR THE LOVE OF THE HOLY TRINITY DO NOT PERMA VAULT/PERMA PAYWALL THESE ASSETS ON PATREON/DEVIANT ART OR ON PORTS TO OTHER ENGINES LIKE DAZ
These assets were not ripped for your Patreon NSFW, please rip it yourself if you're going to do that. This is a *FREE* resource for the XIV and LADS community, not Patreon renders <3 I will get MC to curse you if you do, I mean it. I'm actually serious, don't use this for that content for the love of Caleb. I am not a fan of game assets being abused like that.
- Don't gatekeep these assets (share this resource if someone asks about it, thats the point of this dump), it's getting harder to access these files, please don't gatekeep knowledge.
- Don't use in depictions of hateful or bigoted content. Respect the creators, please.

PLEASE:

- Share! Share! Share!
- Give credit to In/fold/Raz/tools and link this rip if you use this rips assets in any public ports, regardless of platform.
- Feel free to port models and textures, publically or privately.

Technical Notes (PLEASE READ):

All this is based on my (relatively limited) testing so far. This is not an extensive list right now.

CHARACTER CODES:
- FY: Caleb
- RY: Rafayel
- ST: Xavier
- YG: Sylus
- YS: Zayne
- PL: Player (MC)
- P: Player/LI accessory
- NPC: NPC
- M: Monster
- Q: Chibi

OBJ FILES
- THESE ARE FUNDAMENTALLY BROKEN FOR MOST MESHES/USE CASES
- The software used for this game specifically has degraded a fair amount due to being abandonware at this point, which is why I think OBJ is now so scuffed. I have included these just in case they are useful for any reason.
- These meshes do not contain shapekeys, weights, armatures, or additional UVs (UV0 only - so decals, etc, are cooked).
- Billboard meshes do not work - treat these like a Nikki mesh, or recreate the pearls etc.

FBX FILES - It's disgusting in there but I want to get the files up at least, so there is NO organisation but I'll work on it over the next few days and reupload sorted files 👍
- These have limited functionality but the mesh itself is good.
- Billboard meshes do not work - treat these like a Nikki mesh, or recreate the pearls etc.
- These do/can contain shapekeys, weights, (some?) armatures, UVs (UV01/2/3/4). I have NOT tested the armatures due to not needing to for XIV modding as these are in A pose already.

PNG FILES
- These have limited functionality. And they will need to be edited to function within the XIV engine. Porting business as usual.
- These do/can contain all (UV01/2/3/4) textures.
- SOME textures are included in the dump for the FBX meshes because of how it does the thing, but they are missing alternative colours, so for that reason I have included a separate texture dump, if you plan to use diffuse based designs, you may want to grab the additional loose textures. Additionally, some meshes and textures have WILD names or the texture names dont match the mesh etcetc and you may have to hunt for what you're looking for, so you may have to download that disaster anyway. I do not have control over how either IF internally names it or how the software spits files out, I'm sorry.
