The VG Resource

So the other day, I noticed there were sprites uploaded for Dogz 2, but not the actual Dogz "1".

Having played Dogz alot when I was younger, I quickly searched for a rom and whipped out VisualBoy. And god what luck, the maps were just perfect for me to rip (considering my current....experience level). So, I have started with that.

I've just started uploading, so if it ever feels like I'm going a bit fast, that's just because I had some of the files put together already. (I choke my computer with GIMP running all the time)

I also started getting sprites from the girl, but so far I only have her walking and running, without holding anything. (that alone took forever, since the cycles are 8 sprites each and the directions include diagonals AND hard side/up/down. Luckily, the sides flip lol). I also got her other colors from the New Game menu.

Another thing; the character icon/mugshot sprites seem to be attached to the name+dialogue boxes. They showed up elsewhere not AS attached, but looked pretty messed up. How inconvenient.....

So yeah. I'm not the GREATEST ripper (as I kinda only just started to get serious recently) so it may take a while for some stuff to finally appear.

Comment feedback, tips etc. I kinda just wanted to show what I was doing.

Also, if you want to upload from this game, too, I won't stop you! I won't try to take over the game for myself or something lol

Hey! I would love to help you rip this game. One of the greatest programs out there for GBA ripping and other consoles is called Tile Molestor Alternate. It allows you to get every frame of any sprite stored in the game data. You can pick it up here:

Any questions, and if you would like me to help, I would be happy too, as I need new stuff to rip for GBA too!

Nice!!! Of course you can help! I'm not great with words but if you ever get the urge to rip something, go right ahead!

And since you were so nice to offer, I'll come to you for help if I ever need it


And thanks for the program tip! I'll be sure to check it out.

What're you currently working on ripping? I'll snag the basic stuff before you even enter the game

Right now I'm really just working on any maps. I might try to get all the sprites of the girl, since I already ripped her walking/running anyway. Also any character icon+dialogue boxes I can find.

Edit: almost forgot I had started ripping the mom/dad/pet-store clerks

are people still working on these? I would very much appreciate if anyone is working on it
