The VG Resource

This game just came out on steam, as you can see it has pretty beautiful painted backgrounds and portraits, plus nicely animated prerendered sprites.

It's archive is simply a renamed passworded .zip, I tried looking at the exe in a dissasembler for the password, foolish me thought I would get lucky and few searchs would turn up a password in plaintext, but no luck, truth be told I don't even know what I should be looking for in the dissasembler.

Just wanted to bring some attention to this game, since I know there are quite a few people skilled at computer forensics around here.

Wow. This is giving me some Bastion vibes, amazing art.

You can give this a shot, I'd try it myself but unfortunately I don't own the game. Good luck, I'd really love to see these graphics ripped.

No luck, saddly, unless I did something wrong. Gonna guess the password is in a .dll or something.

Gonna try following the debugger tutorial, wish me luck

EDIT: Only got 3 signatures, one being anti-debug, not sure but I think this means the .exe is protected, maybe this is why the password didn't turn up in the previous try?

If anyone smarter than me manages to dig out the password or unpack the files somehow I'm willing to help in the sorting, arranging, uploading proccess.

Hi! the password you are looking for:

File: Dragon Fin Soup\resources.dfs
Password: ESVWPEd$P3P$@+PVL$$x@

Haha wow awesome, thanks a lot.

Randis is king.

Now to sort some of this stuff.

Gonna try to make a little program to read the .plist file and give me individual images to make contact sheets with, I say try because I'm no programmer and parsing a simple text file is a challenge for me Tongue

If someone wants to give me a hand with that, here's a sample file of the man himself Randis Albion:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/o3actd...randis.zip

Can someone help me make sense of the plist file?

It's a texture packer file, I wrote a little program to clean up the binary plist file and output an easier to parse txt file and already have the framework to export individual frames.

However, I'm having trouble rebuilding the images.

As you can see, the third frame jumps quite a bit.

I arranged the images the way it's specified here:

Here is the plist data that corresponds to that animation:

And here's the source image:

I'm not using offset, I don't know how offset is meant to work, since simply adding those values throw the sprites even more out of position in relation to each other.

I don't see any value that could help me push down the third frame to it's position.

Any help appreciated.

EDIT: I tested a bunch of other animations and it seems like only a few have problems, most came out perfect using the values fromsoruceColorRect, I guess I can simply manually fix the ones that come out bad.

Any recommendation on what to use to make contact sheets?

This should push me back to the top 50 uploaders on TSR XD

This might help you make more sense of the values. I'd give this a shot myself but you seem to have already got most of it down. Not sure what's up with those black bits by the corners though...?

Fixed

Fixed my program with loads of help, was having transparency issues.

Expect sheets soonish.
