Shivers by Sierra - napalm22 - 05-11-2012
All images for Shivers are zipped here:

Feel free to use them to make any sheets you wish.

Hi napalm22, I confess I didn't saw your files (due its big size), but I know its hard to find out how to extract from PC games (and that 90% of the sprite ripping); so, congratulations!!!
I suggest you to use a single topic for these submissions.
And I think there's no one better than you to turn these files into sheets. The extraction is a great contribuiton, but maybe nobody will finish it. You could separate the backgrounds, playable chars, menus, enemies and bosses into separated Zip files and post them.

Yes, unfortunately we have no idea what sections these sheets go under for any of these Sierra games and will need some help organizing them...
RE: Shivers by Sierra - napalm22 - 05-17-2012
In the shivers zip, there are:
2219 backgrounds for a total uncompressed size of 316 MB
1732 animated gif previews of the animations for a total uncompressed size of 55 MB
7773 frames of the animations broken out for a total uncompressed size of 106 MB.
Clearly there is a lot of data in this game from 1995.
I found a good process for ripping graphics from Sierra's AGI ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adventure_Game_Interpreter ) and SCI ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sierra's_Creative_Interpreter ) engines. (This will probably work for sounds, cursors, text, etc, as well).
If anybody wants me to do a certain game that uses one of these engines, I can rip the graphics and upload the zip files; however, making the sheets might be best suited for somebody else.
