Plugin and tools to create PlayStation TMD 3D models for MarbleClay 3D modeller. Tested working in Windows 10 x64 (Windows 32bit XP should work but untested).

MarbleClay is a free, small and simple 3D modeller (and pose renderer) with modern tools and UI.
PLEASE NOTE: MarbleClay doesn't not support per vertex color so no Gouraud shading is possible!

1. Better and verbose English translation from the original Japanese documentation.
2. Plugin for exporting RSD file format.
3. Plugin for running a script from the NY button.
4. View 3D asset via PlayStation emulator or Assimp

1. RSD Exporter Plugin: C:\MarbleCLAY\Plugin\PSX\RSDExporter.readme https://github.com/gwald/MarbleClay_TMD_PSX/blob/main/Plugin/PSX/RSDExporter.readme
2. RunBatchScript Plugin: C:\MarbleCLAY\Plugin\PSX\runbatchscript.readme https://github.com/gwald/MarbleClay_TMD_PSX/blob/main/Plugin/PSX/runbatchscript.readme

1. Download MarbleClay: http://escargot.la.coocan.jp/MCLFrm.html
2. Extract zip file exactly to C:\marbleclay not C\MarbleCLAYb64
3. Download this plugin.
4. Extract plugin content into C:\marbleclay over writing everything when prompted.
5. Start MarbleClay, start "C:\MarbleCLAY\MarbleCLAY.exe"
6. Configure MarbleClay mouse interface via the wizard.
7. Open the tutorial file, "C:\MarbleCLAY\Sample\wood-script.mcl"
8. To start the tutorial, click the NY (in Orange and Cyan) button on the toolbar, next to the pencil. If you don't see the it, turn it on via: Window menu -> Show Toolbar -> [x] Image.
9. It will run the script file with the same name, "C:\MarbleCLAY\Sample\wood.script"
10. It will export the model and texture to PSX format and package it up into a PSX.EXE and run in the emulator, then export it as OBJ and display it in assimp. Lastly it will create a PSX ISO and run it.
11. If you plan on using MarbleClay, email the developer for a free registration key to remove the polygon limit, following the Registration section.

The RunBatchScript plugin works by running several programs from a batch file: "C:\MarbleCLAY\Plugin\PSX\RSDN.bat" there are 3 alternatives depending on what you need, the default is native support.

1) Native support It uses a Net Yaroze member created executable, RSDLINK2.exe which converts RSD to TMD. It's works and has more features than the Sony supplied RSDLINK. English translation documentation is here: https://github.com/gwald/Net_Yaroze_related_binaries/blob/main/rsdlink2_eng.txt To use this, replace RSDN.bat with "C:\MarbleCLAY\Plugin\PSX\RSDN-RSDLINK2.bat"

2) ntvdmx64 support This script uses the original Sony supplied RSDLINK. But you have to have ntvdmx64 installed because RSDLINK is a 16bit DOS application. To use this, replace RSDN.bat with "C:\MarbleCLAY\Plugin\PSX\RSDN-ntvdmx64.bat"

3) DOSBOX support If you don't want to install ntvdmx64 and still want to run the original RSDLINK tool, it can be run in a DOSBOX script, however it's about 20x times slower!!. To use this, replace RSDN.bat with "C:\MarbleCLAY\Plugin\PSX\RSDN-DOSBOX.BAT"

1. RSDVIEW.C This is a replacement of the original Sony PSX RDS viewer which 3D clipped (Z fighting) a lot. You can also use it as a guide for displaying 3D models using Sony's Net Yaroze SDK. It is part of RSDN (RSD-> TMD-> PSX.EXE-> [PSX.ISO->] NO$PSX ), if you install it correctly you can call this batch via CLI from anyway, ie: C:\MarbleCLAY\Plugin\PSX\RSDN.bat test (where test.rsd is in the current path).
2. PACKDATAHACK.C The original Sony packer program was 16bit, and is limited to a single texture.
