Overview
Ever wondered you want to swap a model in this game, but don’t know how? Here’s the simplified, easy way to do it, an example for swapping models of Rachael (pl10a0.arc) over Jill Wetsuit (pl1010.arc)
The Steps
Note: Make sure to backup your files first before swapping the model
- Download and extract this https://www(.)mediafire(.)com/file/a6dcdgz0z9r9h3c/Model+Swap.rar/file, remove the ( )
- In that folder “Model Swap”, paste files you’re gonna swap (for example pl10a0.arc and pl1010.arc)
- Drag each one of those .arc file on to pc-rev.bat (it will now create two folders called pl10a0 and pl1010)
- Right click on folder pl1010 and “open in new window” (this will save you some time)
- Now you have two windows open and you can begin
- From the folder pl10a0modelcharaplpl10a0, copy pl10a0.mod and pl10a0.mrl to folder pl1010modelcharaplpl1010 and rename them to pl1010.mod and pl1010.mrl, overwriting both files
- Copy the entire pl10a0 folder from pl10a0modelcharapl to pl1010modelcharapl folder
- Once done, inside copied pl10a0 folder, delete .mod and .mrl files leaving only the .tex files
- Copy content of pl10a0modelcharatextures folder, Chara000_DM_HQ.tex to pl1010modelcharatextures and overwrite if asked
- Close one unnecessary window and go back to “Model Swap” folder
- Delete pl1010.arc
- Open pl10a0.arc.txt file, copy it’s content and paste it below text in pl1010.arc.txt file saving changes to the other file one done
- Drag folder pl1010 to pc-rev.bat
- Done. You will get new pl1010.arc file that is model swapped and is ready to use
You can also do it for character selection/preview screen in Raid Mode. You have to get the files from RESIDENT EVIL REVELATIONSnativePCarchiveguichara_sel folder.
