I've been trying to rip the dialogue sprites from Deception IV: The Nightmare Princess for a couple of days now, but with no real success.
It's a game I own on PS4, and I noticed that no-one's ever ripped any sprites or textures from it, or at least anyone who has hasn't uploaded it - however, some people have exported models from the game. My issue is that I've downloaded multiple versions of the US ISO for the PS3 version of the game, and I can't quite wrap my head around how to go about ripping the sprites from the decrypted files; it's the general set-up you'd have when preparing a PS3 game as a folder, to emulate with RPCS3. In the folder, the only place where I'd imagine I'd find the dialogue sprites - along with other textures - is in the folder labelled "ARCHIVE". However, in that folder, there's only two .bin files and a shortcut file named "archive001", nothing happening after double-clicking on it. It doesn't seem to link to anything, in its Properties, either. The two bin files in the ARCHIVE folder are named "lfm_order_001.bin" and "load_img001.bin". The first of those two, when opened in Notepad++, displays what seems to be a lot of null data, with what appears to be the locations of assets. The other seems to just be full of null data.
It's also worth noting that I poked around in the files of a PS VITA ISO of the game. The other version of the game with less content, Blood Ties. The files inside seem to be extremely similar.
Sorry, if I'm explaining this in a confusing or incorrect way - I'm totally open to take any questions, if it helps. Any help and advice is appreciated. Thanks!
