ok, so the deal is, I started to use tile molestor. And you'd hope I'd start with a game I've played before, on maybe a system I owned with maybe a character I know.
Nope, not me, I start with Metal Gear for the NES, which actually has fairly "easy" tiles to rip (for some reason my tiles never look as "pretty" as Racoon Sam's tutorial makes them look, even on the same game he used in the tutorial...)
anyway. My NES emulator is strange, it doesn't save states, it saves games as .sav, which TM doesn't count as a save state, which means no pallette for me! So I took the pallette from the demo that plays in the beggining since my emulator doesn't even work hahah. So I need help figuring out the pallette for this rip... since I'm pretty sure this is all the characters in the game.... I'd hope since everything else in the file is background tiles and garbled nonesense.
But I don't see Snake, so I'm not sure if that one dude with tons of poses is Snake, or if I missed him (not really sure how though, everything else is just junk) So I was also wondering if someone could point me to a different tutorial, because Racoon Sam might have had different settings on or something, because I'm seeing sprites just fine, just not in the neat way he has it... when I do what the tutorial says the sprites line up alright, but some sprites just never line up...
