Ever Oasis GAR Files and Bin Files?
#1
Question 
Hello, This is my first attempt at actually trying to Rip models from a Game.
I managed to get the CIA File for the Recent 3DS Release, Ever Oasis.
I converted it and Exported it's contents. Only to find those said contents are all .GAR Files?
What is this file format?
I tried to open them in Ohana3DS. And Yeahhh...That didn't work.

Is there a way to take this .GAR File type and convert it to proper readable files? 
Or are these .GAR Files totally useless?...

If you know what to do, I can supply you with the .GAR Files.

On a side note, there is also a romfs.bin File that packs 792,644 Kb
Is this where the Model's and Textures, Etc are located?
Is there a way I can open the Bin File and view the contents if there is any inside?

It would be nice to see these Models ripped, They are pretty nice! 
Thanks.

Ever Oasis's .GAR file is almost the same MM3D's .GAR file
I modified N3DSCmbViewer It can extract .GAR file and 3d model
but textures are missing and bones are messy

Ah, That is very interesting. Embarassed
I wonder how the Texture Files can be ripped?
Hopefully There is also a way to recover the Bones too.
This is certainly tricky, But it's interesting to see it share's traits with that game.
I do see some of MM3D'S Models properly ripped. 
So At least I know it's possible now!
Just still confused, But I should check out N3DSCmbViewer! 
Thanks for your feedback!  Wink

Update:
I Tried using N3DSCmbViewer, It certainly recognizes the files, However nothing really shows up. Each .GAR File is only 5 - 100 or so KB In size, So maybe those .GAR Files aren't the exact ones...
I notice there are no Models, Stages, Music Folders Etc, All Contents are located in a simple Folder called Data. Maybe they are just events or something...

Ah, Well That version you provided certainly helped! I can see inside the .GAR Folders now and Located the Model Files!...There just seems to be another problem though...I seem to get this error when I try to view the models. (Check Attachment) 

Rendering Disabled?... 

I feel like I am getting close for sure though!...Maybe?  Embarassed

Hmm... I can't see...
it's extremely buggy
but it can extract .GAR files 

I found that cxtb files are extracted using texturipper_1.2.exe

While they don't render in the Viewer, They can be converted to .DAE Files.
From the results I got, It is indeed possible to rip these!

Only thing missing now are Textures and the Bones unfortunately...
But It feels good getting this far!
