Where To Find Some of My Old XPS and OBJ Models by DigitalExplorations on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

As all of you know I'm getting out of the free 3D model release business this year (2021) so I can focus more on my writing and web comics. I'm a storyteller first and a writer second, after all. (chuckle) What motivated me in doing all of that was in part so i could have the necessary tools for visualizing the stories I wanted to tell or create. That said I put out a lot of 3D models as free downloads over the past 5-6 years. Almost all of them were XPS ports or XPS-friendly OBJ ports of other people's stuff, although I tried to proper credit where credit was due in all cases. There are also a handful I either ported and rigged myself for XPS use or were original creations (such as some of my warship models and the odd scenery model or two). While a lot of my old model releases are currently no longer available to the general public, other have kindly re-upped (or outright ripped off in at least one case) a lot of what I released during that time, so all is not lost.

Here is a incomplete list of links you can chase for the incomplete set of my old 3D model releases that are still available on the Web in one form or another. I'll try to update this if others bring back more of my old stuff in the future.

As far as I'm concerned you can do with all of my model releases whatever you want to do, subject to the following three conditions:

  1. If they're mine, please credit me for them.

  2. If they're not mine, please credit the original creator and/or current rightsholder and/or current release artist as appropriate.

  3. No using for any adult-oriented content (i.e. porn, "roman" or "romance," etc.) of any kind. Period.

The Resident Evil franchise

Here's a link to adngel's somewhat souped-up version of Chief Iron's Office from RE1.5 as recreated by DXP in XPS format:

XPS artist ProgrammerNetwork was part of the RE1.5 REvisited project back in the day, and as such produced XPS rigged versions of all of the weapon models that were originally released here on deviantArt as part of that. He still has those plus a LOT more from other sources on his own dA page, so I'm just going to point you there and let you browse around for yourself:

DeviantArt's own Tyrant004Tp was given written permission by me a while back to port anything he wanted from any of the Resident Evil related stuff I did back in the day. He's re-upped all of the Outbreak series stuff (I think, there was so much of it!) and added a fair amount of his own. Again, I point you to his dA page and you can dive in yourself to find what you need:

Here's another piece, from a different part of the new RPD building, again courtesy of Marcelievsky

Here's the RPD parking garage, courtesy of dA's CharlesWS:

And while my own custom Elza Walker model in her RE1.5 jumpsuit is no longer available (based on my own "Miss Cupcake OC," you can see it being used in a lot of old RE1.5-inspired digital imagery), my having pulled it in favor of KitMartin's later one, you can still get the custom Blue Siren dress mod version of my Elza originally created for me by the now-defunct Moogle Outfitters, and which has been re-upped and is available from dA member ExtraActively at the link below:

Modelfundgrube's SketchUp (SKP) ports

There's a user over at Google's 3D Warehouse who goes by the name of modelfundgrube who has ported hundreds, perhaps thousands of 3D models into SketchUp's custom 3D model format - and almost always without crediting his original sources. I am but one of the many, many, many people he's done this to over the years. Here's links to some of the stuff he has in his account I know he downloaded from my various dA accounts back in the day. I'm not going to go medieval on him because I originally put them out there for everyone to share and enjoy (which he's doing without proper credit), and he can be a useful source for other things at times. All the same I wanted to let all of you know these were either my creations or my ports to begin with. I'd advise using the Collada export download option if you can so you can reload them in any good 3D editor (Blender, 3DS Max, et al) and then you can re-port them however you want. If you can't, most newer 3D software has either a SKP importer or SKP import plugin you can get for these. If any of you re-port these to OBJ or XPS and repost them, please let me know and I'll update the links accordingly:

There's a LOT more I'm fairly certain he got from me too, but there's potential other sources for them as well and I'm only identifying the ones I know came from me beyond all shadow of a doubt. This was also as far as I could dive down into his account, because he's got so much sh--, er stuff in there that I was getting serious lag from the 3D Warehouse trying to go deeper. He also NEVER credits the original sources for ANY of it. *sigh*

That's the incomplete list!

Finally, if you have or get your hands on any of my old free 3D model releases that no one else has re-upped (yet!), feel free to do so. I hope you'll drop me a line when you do, so I can add the appropriate link(s) to this list.

Have fun!
