Help with Keen Mod - Grundle - 01-10-2016

I'm interested in doing a full rip of this mod, Ruins of Roib, but I'm not having any luck.

What would be the best solution for extracting sprites from this sort of thing?

So to do this, I had to use ModKeen to extract the files. This is a DOS program and so requires DOSBox. It also required me to download CWSDPMI for it to run. After that it finally extracted everything nicely.

Since I went through all that myself, I decided to save you the trouble and just package them up for you in a .zip. Here you go Smile

I'm pretty sure this is the method one would use for any other Commander Keen game as well, so you can use this if you want to extract other sprites in the future. It does help to be familiar with using DOS/command-line programs though.

Thanks! I'll keep those programs in mind.
