I'm curious to know if it is even possible to replace some of the pre-rendered character sprites and polygons in some of the later Ys PC games. I know several other games out there have methods of importing custom made character and environment models, riggs, animation frames and textures into a game and I guess I'm just wondering if there is a possibility to do that with any of the 3D Ys titles.
I was thinking that it might be fun to model my own custom character or two based on the overall average character build in the games, take all the necessary rendered animation frames and somehow import those into the game. But I have no idea about the file structure or naming conventions used, so I thought I'd field the question out to see if anyone else knows more about how it could be done.
That'd be neat to create your own custom assets and test them in the Ys engine.
Any advice is surely appreciated. Thanks.

You know, I had wondered this myself. Ys mods would be pretty sweet.
I'd like to think it is possible, but I dunno if the tools to do it with exist.

Well, it's all something that I really have no knowledge of. I can only make 3D models and graphics. That's about as far as I can get! : ) When it comes to understanding the files/file structure and how to hack them, I'm completely hopeless.
But even still, if there is a way to pull it off one of these days, I bet we could have some fun with it. : )

I would not like to see the Ys series tempered with.....I dont particularly agree with mods although there are a few out there I do like for UT and Quake Etc.

I'm still wondering why there is no Ys mod for unreal or anything like that. A Fist Person 3D Ys would be awesome sadly I don't have the knowledge to pull something like that off, but there probably are people around who do.

The mentioning of Quake/Doom just makes me imaging Dogi breaking a wall and then letting loose with a BFG

He'd use the BFF instead. : ) And I don't mean the "Best Friend Forever". : )
Well, I suppose you could do an Oblivion mod or a Never Winter Night's mod to make something that looks like Ys, but it still wouldn't be the same as tinkering with the actual PC Ys games...

It would be interesting to Mod it enough so that you can play i.e. Ys VI with 2 people. Therefore, you could create a versus mode.
Or rather, do that with Ys ORIGIN, and you'd've 5 characters to choose! YsVI Adol, YsF Adol, Hugo, The Claw, Yunica.
=] Me likes.
I know many people did exactly that with 80's and 90's FPS games for PC back then.

Black Pearl Dome! Two Adols shall enter. One shall leave...
Honestly, Adol vs Adol (VI and Oath) would be amazingly fun. I think VI Adol would be at a disadvantage, but I'm sure the right player could overcome that.
