Hey thanks for the quick reply! So, im curious.. are the stage files simply contained in ARC files? I dont use blender (I use 3dsMax).. Can the FluffyQuack tools be used to extract the stage files?
Also wondering.. where are the stage files located in the DLC packages?
Cheers!

Everything is packed inside the .arc, even the textures, well you can use Blender and then export to an format that you can use in 3ds max, i think the DLC files are located in the same folder as the others models

If you never used blender before, this is how you can do it Here's a quick guide how to install a custom addon to Blender www.wikihow.com/Add-an-Addon-in-BlenderAfter installing it you press N key and then a toolbar should appear on the right side, scroll down until you find the Albam tab, open it and then click 'Import', find the .arc file that you want and then open it.  You can export everything + textures by choosing copy in Path Mode, so Blender will export the models and textures to the selected folder, in this case i'm exporting as .obj  Good luck!

Nah, you can just open the .arc file, the addon will do everything for you.
the .mod file is used for the 3ds max addon

hmm it seems there are no arc files fro stage models in the version I have. Looking in this directory I see for example:
nativePC_MT\stage\s101\soft\s101.stp
most of the folder have just these .stp files, but no arc files. Maybe I'm stuck with having to get Blender?

Maybe I'm stuck with having to get Blender? stage files are stored inside arc's, located in "nativePC_MT/image/archive" there you can see enemies, stages, weapons, characters, items, etc etc... the stages usually starts with an s, by example for mercenaries stages you have the s400 which correspond for Public assembly, s401 which correspond to the mines, so on and so on, i believe that dlc stages are right afther the ID of the default stages ends, the last stage is the volcano stage where you fight wesker on his last form, which is the file s508.arc, afther that you'll see stages like s700.arc whicj correspond to the mansion spencer from LIN which includes the first part of LIN, beforeentering spencer's prison, if you wan't a detailed list of the stages, items and characters use JTeghius Kittius's arc list, good luck!
