In the folder of dumped assets, there is also a folder called `SpriteAssets` containing a bunch of .json files. I did some research, and found that this is a feature built into unity to pack entire spritesheets into a single image and unpack them during runtime. I cannot find a tool to unpack the textures, and i cannot figure out how to read them in Unity. Does anyone know what to do?

I've had experience swizzling and unswizzling PS2 textures (mapping indicies according to a specific tiling layout used by the PS2) with my own scripts and had success in the past,
I'm trying to rip some textures from another PS2 game,
This game I ripped successfully 4bpp and 8bpp images, and it's indicies are linear in order, no swizzling everytime as far as I've tested.
However,
There's a few of these weird images caliming to be 32bpp in disguise? but are actually 4bpp, one example as follows:
It's header claims it's 64x32 pixels and 32bpp, - there is also a palette with x16 colors.
The headers I believe I'm reading correctly, because I can open 4bpp and 8bpp images no problem.
(4 byte index offset, 2 byte width, 2 byte height, 1 byte bpp, 1 byte data compressed, 2 bytes 256 byte group cumulative count)
I am confident which texture this is in game, because I have the models ripping and the animations importing,
It's a glistening light effect when the Autobot Decepticon Logo Rotates, which is 128x128 pixels and 4bpp.
I was able to rip the BMP image from PCSX2 using TexMod,
64x32x32/8 is the size of the origional binary image data in bytes which = 128x128x4/8. So I think it's most likely just a indicies reordering going on.
I've tried using software such as ConsoleTextureExplorer, TiledGGD, TextureFinder, Tilemolester, but no luck thus far to convert the origional binary data into the correct indicies order.
I'm writing a model and texture opening scripts so it would be nice to have this included for some of the models which use them.
I'll upload both the raw binary index data as a 128x128 BMP file and the correct BMP file.
If anyone is up for it, I'd really appreciate some help please

I need help to rip the textures from Invizimals Battle Hunters.

My main goal with this is to extract the icons of the creatures because I was able to get the icons from the previous games and this one is going to be complicated since the servers got shut down long ago so I might need help to rip them.

The only thing that I sure is that the textures are stored in the .obb file, but I don't know how to proceed.]]>

I saw an ads about Nikolas Tesla fighting against Stephen Hawking, and I found it funny, so I downloaded the XAPK of "Realms of Pixel" v2.2.5.

Unfortunately, all PNGs are considered as "not PNG", so, I'm rather surprised...

I tried to open them with notepad to see any meta data or something like that, but it's just a bunch of letters without any usable intel.

Do someone had the same issue ?

Any kind of converter ?

Thx ^^.]]>

There's a couple of threads on this game back from when it first came out, but none of them have very specific tips or instructions. If we can nail down a method in this thread, people won't have to ask anymore.

So far, I've found a lot of .arc files. I'm going for the ones in nativeDX10/Common/romPC atm. When I try to open them with ARCtool, I get files with random letters and numbers as extensions (like "MetalsharkPrayer.619CF7E7"). I finally found out the .tex files have the ".241F5DEB" extension. But when I tried Random Talking Bush's bms script for "CapcomMTFrameworkPC_TEX", it didn't get me anything. Idk.

So I ended up using DDDA Image Viewer to get them instead. That worked, but the textures aren't the very high quality and are colored green for some reason. https://imgur.com/a/FXHVNPS I tried swapping the green and alpha channels, but it didn't fix much.

Any advice on how to get these in higher quality and in color?]]> Mega Man X Legacy Collection's gallery is already uploaded to the Spriters Resource and people have even figured out the sprites from the individual games, but the UI textures from the X Challenge mode remain at large afaik.

Many of them can be handled by the conversion tool developed for MHS2, but it seems like the majority of them can't - I get a .dds file that has dimension information but looks otherwise blank once opened, or a .dds with no listed dimensions that can't be opened in IrfanView or GIMP. I've also tried the tools in ReviLib, but I haven't had much success with those either. I can use those tools to get the models, at least.

Does anybody have any suggestions on what to try next?]]>

Valve games, especially older ones, don't seem to be commonly ripped online, so I've been running around in circles for a while now it feels like. Anyone maybe familiar with ripping from the Goldsrc engine know where these would be located? I'm thinking it might not even be in the wad files at this point.]]>

The problem here is that the "mayu" (eyebrows) and mouth textures are colored weirdly. like they're completely grey and red while the ones on the model in the resource page are of the right colors. I don't know what I'm doing wrong since I haven't done ds ripping in a long time. I have completely forgot how to do this.

This is from exporting them straight out of the NSBTX files, so is there a way to extract them with the correct colors?

I wish i could show pictures but attaching them isn't an option on this forum.]]>
