I'm trying to extract the rest of the sprites from bleach: dark souls on the DS. I have the ROM and the save file with all the characters unlocked, but I'm not sure exactly where to start to rip the sprites. Can anyone help me out?
EDIT: I know I'm a noob about this but google isn't helping at all. I really can't figure out where to start. Is it possible to do using DeSmUmE? Can someone please point me in the right direction to get started?
Opening the game up in Tinke doesn't seem to bring anything readable, so the other option would be to manually rip them via DeSmuME.
Bleach: Dark Souls is a bit of an unusual case for DeSmuME, where you can't really remove any of the backgrounds without having the character sprites gone as well.
Therefore, the only option would be to play through the game and either use printscreen to capture the sprites (and manually remove the backgrounds, or use a frame capturing program such as
animget to play through the game and sort through the frames after doing the animations.
It's going to be a bit tedious.
all the files in the ROM's "char"-folder seem to be in pairs, a .hit file and a .tex file.
At the end of the tex I could find the palette, but that's about it. The files may be compressed, and Tinke was unable unpack them.
At least font16x16.dat is uncompressed though, which leads me to believe that all .dat files are pure uncompressed graphics. Sadly there aren't many of them.

You're going to have to be a little more specific. What sprites? What game?
