Model Ripping from GameCube games

[SonikkuForever]

Hello everyone. I'm a newbie on ripping textures, but to be specific, I'm interested in ripping textures from GameCube games like Super Mario Sunshine, my favorite.

Thing is, I got the model of one of my favorite enemies of that game, the Swoopin' Stu slash Gooble, and I need some assistance on how to get those textures ripped from this game, which I got on Dolphin Emulator.


Can you help? Thanks.

Fortunately, ripping textures from GameCube is super-easy because Dolphin can do it for you! Here's how:

Step 1: Open the game you want to rip from in Dolphin.

Step 2: With the game running, go to the Dolphin menu and click the "Graphics" button above your game list (the picture of the screen). This will open the graphics configuration menu.

Step 3: In the graphics menu you just opened, click the "Advanced" tab, then check the box next to "Dump Textures." Dolphin will create a folder called "Dump" on your PC, where it will store every texture it loads as a PNG.

Step 4: Go to the part of the game containing the texture you want, and be sure the enemy appears on-screen so that Dolphin can save its texture. Congratulations! The texture is ripped!

Now, all you have to do is open the "Dump" folder again and sort through all of the textures Dolphin ripped until you find the ones you want.

Hope this helps!
