You can remove Anette, Terra and Isis from Rondo. They're already included in the areas in which you save them. Yeah, they only have that one sprite there. No animation at all, except for the cut scenes. Are you sure you want me to rip those by the way? I wouldn't mind ripping them, but I know most of you out there hate castlevania anime.


RE: Games That Need Rippin' - Dazz - 07-15-2008

With only 3 things left to rip from Rondo of Blood, it'd be cool if somebody could try and get them done - Not saying for everyone to drop what they're doing to do it, but I think it'd be a great idea to clear out that single portion from Castlevania.

Cutscenes have questionable ripping, so if it IS possible, that'd be great, but if it isn't possible, please inform us.


RE: Games That Need Rippin' - Badbatman3 - 07-15-2008

Actually, it is possible. VERY possible. The artwork from cutscenes themselves animate like actual sprites. The only tough part is getting the japanese text separated. If it is needed then I'll take care of it asap.

Add another game to the list: Mother 1+2, for the gba :E. I started rippnig from it, but we don't have anything from that game.
The game is in japanese, so those who have played Earthbound 0/1 will probably rip it a lot easier.


RE: Games That Need Rippin' - SmithyGCN - 07-22-2008

BBm3 has ripped everything left from Castlevania III and the Castle Map from Rondo already.

-New poses for the old comrades ( Marco,Tarma,Fio & Eri)

I've already got Tarma's new sprites ripped, but my main computer's buggered up right now so I can't upload the updated spritesheet (or the two Sutte Hakkun sheets I ripped)... Very Sad

That, and I've been really busy lately. REALLY busy.


RE: Games That Need Rippin' - @$$h0l3 - 07-28-2008

OK. But I've got a problem, I don't see actuall sprites (tiles) in the Molester. What the hell you do to see normal tiles?


RE: Games That Need Rippin' - Badbatman3 - 07-28-2008

I've ripped everything from Castlevania 2: Belmont's Revenge.

1. Extract all of the files (or just the few you want) from the Metal Slug 7 ROM, using either DSLazy or Tahaxan.

2. Open up "chr_*.bin" in Tile Molester, with the * being a wildcard. (Set "Files of Type:" to "All Files (*.*)" first, so that they'll show up.) Files that start with "PL" are for players, "EM" is for enemies, "WP" is for weapons, etc.

3. After the file is opened, set the Codec (in the "View" menu) to "4bpp linear, reverse-order" and Mode (same) to "2-Dimensional".

4. Then, go to "Block Size" (in the same menu as the previous two), and click on "Custom...". Set the Columns to "2", then click "OK". The sprites should look like they should now, though they're organized the same way as in the Arcade Metal Slug games.

5. Now, we're going to need a palette... Every single one of them is in the obj_pal.bin. Good luck finding the right ones, though, as there's a LOT of palettes in there. (Another alternative is to rip a sprite directly from the game and getting the palette from that.)

(Although, I personally used GGD to get the sprites for Tarma, as it was a lot faster.)

Thanks,it works! But what is GGD?? (Sorry for my dumbassness)

GGD (or GeneralGraphicalDump) is a Japanese-made tile-viewing program, which works better than Tile Molester in my opinion. (Though there are some things only Tile Molester can rip).

Ragey explains how to use it (and has it up for download) here.


RE: Games That Need Rippin' - Badbatman3 - 07-29-2008

I've ripped everything from Castlevania Adventure. I'm glad I don't have to touch that abomination ever again. Smile


RE: Games That Need Rippin' - Dazz - 07-29-2008

Excellent, Castlevania is going down incredibly fast!


RE: Games That Need Rippin' - Badbatman3 - 08-05-2008

All cutscenes from castlevania rondo of blood have been ripped.
