As far as I know, this would either be impossible or extremely difficult. Each game
has its own method of loading and drawing the models.
Hacking in different models is not as easy as changing the textures.

Yes, but Dolphin must decode the model data for the games it supports into either OGL
or DX9 models. So technically, that hurdle is already behind us.

Is Dificult but not Impossible .
is possible if we could imagine resident evil remake, loading files directly from
your hd would cause a performance improvement because it would not worry about the
compression of the isos.

I'm sorry for my english I'm Brazilian.

There are 2 programs to do this, one of them dump the 3d models and textures
separately, the problem is to put the textures on the right place later (there is a
lot of textures in one scene), the another one is specially made for dolphin but I
never found it... A dump button on dolphin like a screenshot would be nice tho.
Also ripping bones along with geometry would be spectacular.
Sorry for my english, I'm a brazilian too =3

Yeah...a mix between what Billiard and dfleite said :)
Basically, dolphin could dump scene data (like a screenshot, kinda). IMO, implementing some algorithm to trace
vertices looking for unique models is not dolphin's job, and would likely be crappy anyways :p
You'd get what the game outputs, nothing more (and hopefully nothing less). To me, that has debatable
usefulness.

Furthermore, you need someone who is interested in this to pick up coding it...

I held (and still hold) some interrest in this functionality too. Back with PJ64,
there was a seperate plugin that implemented some simple wrapping around the API (i
think it was OpenGL back then).

I wouldnt go and take the long way round, isolating models etc. Just dump the whole
geometry thats drawn, and do the rest in your-favorite-3d-modeler.
Applications like 3dvia Printscreen, 3d RipperDX and GLintercept/OGLE work no
different, but some certain use of the API seems to crash some of them, or at least
produce crappy output.

You don't need to, it'd be pretty much useless for this issue.

That's not the focus here. This is about a texture exporter.

I think that if Dolphin would dump materials and models in a .max file, it would be enough. Use V-Ray if needed.
Also, with bones and make it a check option in Graphics. and if so, use the bones to put animation.

Well, if you where dolphin creator, and was interested on this, it soudn't be hard, since the emulator have to decode the model files from the .iso and then draw on the screen, if dolphin hijacked on this process and then just saved it to .obj it would work fine (like it does with texture dump), I'm taking a look to the source, I'll post here if I discover something.

Removed this from my feature agenda => WontFix.

If anyone else comes along and feels like implementing this feature, this issue report won't make it happen any sooner, so there's no need to keep it open any further.

Email4Steam00: Have fun on looking at the source. But keep in mind that both OGL and D3D aren't game engines. They don't display 3D models, they only display 2D polygons. In fact, we could export some raw vertex data, but it'll be very hard to work with them.
