US imposes sanctions on entities in Iran, Russia over election interference

Here is a TLDR from the article:

The U.S. Treasury Department said in a statement the entities - a subsidiary of Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and an organization affiliated with Russia's military intelligence agency (GRU) - aimed to "stoke socio-political tensions and influence the U.S. electorate during the 2024 U.S. election".

Here is a direct link to the US Treasury Department's press release discussed in the Reuters article:

[Archive] Planetside Models, Images, and Audio - Extracted and Converted

Original post Mar 13 2023 by :ns_logo:[OO] WazixWazix on Reddit


Hello again, it has been close to 2 years since my previous post about the game files, but I just went through and updated my repository.

This upload should be better sorted and more usable overall. Since my previous post about this, I have learned how to convert the models and preserve UV maps and rigging so they should be much easier to use in programs like Blender. There are a few files that are unable to be converted this way so I have brought over the files from my previous extract which may or may not have UV maps.

TLDR: new game files, yay

Links:

Main folder - easy access to all the files

Models - 3D models, most are saved as FBX which can be imported into Blender or you can use the FBX Review program from Autodesk for quick viewing. I have found that most of the FBX files do not load in the default 3D viewer from Windows. I tried to bring over the OBJ files from my old conversion method if I was unable to convert to FBX.

Images/Textures - 2D images, I converted most of these to PNG files but set it to preserve color channels so hopefully this means that the texture files will work without issue in programs like Blender. The naming scheme on some of these is pretty bad so this was much more of a manual process than other files so please let me know if anything is misplaced.

Texture Spreadsheet - I went ahead and updated my texture spreadsheet to make it easier for people to check which texture files go to the models they are messing with. Just Ctrl+F and search for the model name.

Audio - Voice lines, music, effects, etc. These were mostly sorted by naming alone so let me know if anything is out of place. Now includes the audio from all supported languages which I don't believe was in my previous upload.

If anyone wants to contact me about files being out of place/missing, need help finding a file, or simply wanting help with using the files, I would highly recommend joining the Planetside Creative Community Discord: https://discord.gg/Qc4UK6MwGf

Feel free to ping me in that discord or message me directly, hope everyone enjoys and gets use out of this stuff.
