Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime tilemap ripping project - Ducktor - 07-31-2025 Hi. I'm currently in the process of ripping tilemaps/tilesets directly from the binary files of the DS game Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime. I'm specifcally talking about the tiles that make up maps, rather than the maps themselves.

Why does it seem that different parts of the tileset use different palettes, requiring me to slowly piece together the tileset correctly.
