Do you know what format these files are or in which folder to look (Unity)?

I found some stuff in .fbx format that looks like lego parts.

I haven't done a lot with it, but I don't recall seeing anything special not already in LDD or similar... Do you have some particular parts in mind to look for?

It did have some unusual colors in it like 8 Cobalt Blue, which I really wasn't expecting

EDIT:
Ok I think I found them, but it's a lot of files and unfortunately most are not named by something easily identifiable...

UPDATE:
There are 2 folders containing model files, one is called 'NewParts', the other 'Legacy'. Digging a bit through these, it seems they contain the same parts, just differently formatted (though still in FBX). Legacy files are labelled like their corresponding part, NewParts has seemingly random alpha-numeric codes. Doing some quick searching, I still think >90% of this is just copied from the last update of LDD.
However I could find a few Minidoll parts not in LDD as well as a few cloth capes in "very dynamic" poses.

[Philippe Hurbain]

I could only locate these two meshes...

[Jeff Jones]

I could only locate these two meshes...

thx

[Jeff Jones]

btw
dogshank would be the hardest part to locate
due to the actual id for the part not being in bricklink brickowl rebrickable brickset etc
so if you wanna find her search for like "creature"

[Gerald Lasser]

27017 is available as 26822

[Jeff Jones]

heres a another clue to finding dogshank
maybe the id is in either the 2398x range since most skybound parts are in that range from what i know

[Jeff Jones]

some another part request for 3d catalogue raw mesh

Hello: It is safe to share the parts from the Stud.io packs (namely Biopack and related ones)?

[Jeff Jones]

Hello: It is safe to share the parts from the Stud.io packs (namely Biopack and related ones)?

i would safely say no because maybe some of the authors in the parts in these packs might not give permission.

[Orion Pobursky]

Hello: It is safe to share the parts from the Stud.io packs (namely Biopack and related ones)?

No. Only meshes from LEGO themselves where the author is unambiguously LEGO.

[Orion Pobursky]

This means LDD, Unity Micro Game, Lego Universe Parts share, and the Builder app. All other sources are not authorized without specific permission from me via my discussion with the SteerCo.

if someone here has the right cache
theoretically every 2016 g2 sets could be built without any missing parts
and also almost every 2015 g2 sets (sans tahu master of fire and gali master of water) could be built with no missing parts

Indeed, it seems that the 3D catalog app appeared at the end of 2014... unfortunately I wasn't aware of its potential at the time! Moreover, I believe that old data were overwritten when a new catalog went out, so the hope to be able to find something that old is... low

[Jeff Jones]

its all galidover
but maybe someone out there in the world has the cache for these old parts
but maybe in the meantime
i could author the g2 parts from ldd

[Gerald Lasser]

The last 3D catalogue did not have a lot of sets in it, so I doubt that there would be a large stash of parts.

Was the earlier catalogue packed with more sets?

edit: I found a mirror of the catalogue app v2.2.2 from 2020, anything earlier...already found?

found a 2.2.1 apk
apkmirror.com/apk/lego-system-as/lego-3d-catalogue/lego-3d-catalogue-2-2-1-release/lego-3d-catalogue-2-2-1-2-android-apk-download/

[Philippe Hurbain]

found a 2.2.1 apk
apkmirror.com/apk/lego-system-as/lego-3d-catalogue/lego-3d-catalogue-2-2-1-release/lego-3d-catalogue-2-2-1-2-android-apk-download/

Afaik there is no data in the apk, it's populated only by connecting to server, and this server is now shut down...

[Gerald Lasser]

There is very, very little data in, just a handful of (basic) bricks and a few animations. 
So as Philo wrote, everything is downloaded, and now the app is deprecated along with the central resources. 
I found also a 2.0.9 which was from 2019, so still too new. 
Basically you need a phone that has the app installed in 2026 and never been touched since...

Also, as I mentioned before, not all sets were available as AR models, I feel the chance getting Bionicle Parts from there is pretty slim.

[Jeff Jones]

you guys wanna see
mpds of headless toa and protectors?

[Jeff Jones]

update
lehvak nuva from the other server found a apk from 2016
it may be all galidorisen
here is link
https://the-lego-group-3d-catalogue.en.a...m/versions

[Jeff Jones]

since the apks were apparently nothingburgers
so out of desperation
 i considered emailing lego and kindly asking them to provide the raw meshes
is this a good email am i requesting too much?
i would likely get ignored.

I would rather you not affiliate yourself with LDraw in communications with LEGO.

oh.
im stupid

[Orion Pobursky]

Your not stupid. Just we have a SteerCo for official communications.

[Jeff Jones]

if cache still not found
i model it
anyone here have references for the parts following?
24188 24189 24187 and 24193

[Jeff Jones]

references for 24188 24187 24193 are on here https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1...Ggmk4xPieA
whoops 24189 is i think meant to be 25528 as 24189 already exists

[Jeff Jones]

btw i have 3d scans for aton of bionicle parts
including some g2 masks

it came from the other server
edit found one file containing more bionicle parts
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments...height=506

[Jeff Jones]

this is for authors/forum users who had the app
for android
Android/data/com.lego.catalogue.nbb (or .global)/cache
there should be 3d meshes here
extract them using 
AssetRipper AssetStudio UTinyRipper
for ios
i dont know
jailbreak it?

[Jeff Jones]

sorry if it feels like im beating a dead lego horse
but this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JendV8HHt0c
suggests that besides being used on cataloges
the app could be used to view 360 view of sets
hopefully one of you guys used that app at one point and viewed 360 versions of all or most of the sets on the app like a maniac and didnt clear cache

[Jeff Jones]

if someone here has the right cache
theoretically every 2016 g2 sets could be built without any missing parts

update after digging around on yandex i found 2 videos that featured the 2nd and 3rd page but not the 1st page
the sets on the pages that had 3d animations were

• Kopaka Tahu Onua Uniter and Umarak the Hunter
• Mask Maker vs Skull Grinder

so the complete sets that would actually be built if the cache got found based on my findings are

• all Protectors and the 5 Creatures 
• Skull Warrior
• Lord of Skull Spiders
• Scorpion polybag
• Ekimu's Falcon

as for almost complete

• The remaining Toa Masters and Uniters (missing their masks)
• Skull Basher (missing his mask)
• Skull Slicer (missing the lewa mask on his chain)
• Skull Scorpio (missing both masks)
• Ekimu the Mask Maker (missing the spike on his hammer)
• Umarak the Destroyer and the 3 Elemental Beasts (missing both the masks and jaws on their heads + aforementioned spike piece)
