I just spent almost 2 hours there, fantastic
It truly is super cool. I'm curious how some of the models we're ripped. Mario Kart Wii, Galaxy, Sunshine, etc. have always been super easy to extract. Luigi's Mansion not so much. Last I checked there were no public tools to extract .szp (Luigi's Mansion) files. They even were able to rip Paper Mario maps, animations and all! I was only ever able to find one tool back in the day that could view PM:TTYD maps. It was on a random public ftp server IIRC and had no documentation whatsoever.
I used to be really into ripping models from games and "attempting" to put them in other games. I still have a half-finished Mario Kart Wii port of an F-Zero GX track on my HDD somewhere...
