Recently, many people have been asking me to convert 3d models from certain games. More specifically, to «rip» a 3d model from a game, restore the model into a t-pose, make a skeleton, skin it, etc. I warned that process of ripping 3d models might be very time consuming and difficult, therefore it is not free. Some people refused, many agree. I thought maybe someone that is also would be interested.

task: «rip» a 3d model from a game**
you get: 3d model (not in t-pose) in *.max (v.2008) and *.obj with textures (possibly without uv-coordinates)
cost: 2-15*$ (depending on the complexity of the model and amount of textures)

task: repairing uv-coordinates
you get: 3d model uv-coordinates (not in t-pose) in *.max (v.2008) and *.obj with textures
cost: 8-50*$ (depending on the complexity of the model and amount of textures)

task: putting a 3d model into a t-pose
you get: 3d model in a t-pose in *.max (v.2008) and *.obj with textures (possibly without uv-coordinates)
cost: 20-100*$ (depending on the complexity of the model and amount of textures)

task: skinning a 3d model: making a skeleton of bones or biped (the model must be t-posed)
you get: 3d model in a t-pose with skeleton in *.max (v.2008) and *.obj with textures (possibly without uv-coordinates)
cost: 20-90*$ (depending on the complexity of the model and amount of textures)

The list of tasks list will be expanded later. Send me your suggestions/proposals/tasks to e-mail: tosyk.tsw@gmail.com.

Notes:
* — maximum ceiling price, in some cases may exceed the claimed, the average cost for tasks in 80% of cases is $38 (except the first, and in most cases and the second task)
** — almost any PC game. Games for other platforms (xBox360, PS3, Wii, PSP, iPhone, etc.) are stipulated in a special order because they have a different means of extracting 3d models.
For example, a complete set of tasks for Frank Woods from COD Black Ops for PC

would have been:
5(3d model «ripping»)+10(uv-coords repairing)+35(t-posing)+45(skinning)=95$
Sample — Frank Woods (t-pose, biped, skin, textures, uv-coordinates) — download
The task would take anywhere from 2 to 8 days.
See the gallery for model samples.

p.s.: the final cost may also depend on the number of necessary bones, the number of polygons, the complexity of the initial posture of the character/object.
It is impossible to rip 3d models from some games, but the number of such games is very small.
