Need help ripping PS1's Harvest Moon Back To Nature

[Barack Obama]

Could also be a red crosshair, it's kinda tiny.

I'll download it and try around.

EDIT:

OLD PSX-VRAM CONTROLS

I will just say that different consoles and sometimes different sprites can have different codecs and you will need to select the correct one in order to view them properly. To change it, use the number buttons on the keyboard. Pressing “9” will change the codec to 4bpp, which is the one most sprites on the PSX use. “0” will change it to 8bpp, which is what sprites that use 256 colours are encoded in. The other number buttons also have Codecs assigned to them, but they are largely unimportant.

As soon as you press one of the buttons, two cursors will appear, one large red square cursor and one cross-cursor. The square one is moved using the W, A, S and D keys, and represents your “focus”. Move it onto the jumbled mess to the right of the screenshots, and a decompressed version of said mess will appear at the bottom of the screen. It’s either discoloured or even purely black though. And this is where the second cursor comes into play. That cursor is the one responsible for palettes.

How it works? Move the cursor around with the arrow keys of your keyboard - The sixteen(or 256) pixels directly to the right of the cursor will be the palette, each pixel being one palette “slot”. So where are you going to find the needed palettes, with this somewhat odd organisation? Easily. See that bar below the screenshots that appears to be made up entirely of randomly coloured pixels? Yeah, that’s the palettes. Simply keep moving the cursor downward using the arrow keys(By the way, holding Shift while pressing an arrow key will make it move one pixel instead of the usual 16, which is needed to switch rows in the palette-bar), and then search around for the correct palette.

The palettes are not always aligned this neatly(In Metal Slug X, for instance, they are basically all over the place), but usually, they are easy to find and use. So, here's a screen of VRAM with the adjustments needed to rip the Ultimate Armour made.

EDIT 2:

The updated PSX-VRAM appears to be bugged, crosshair doesn't show up for me.

Therefore I recommend the old PSX-VRAM (only works with epsxe quicksaves):

This one 100% works.

Test with your quicksave:

Crosshair and viewer box show up.

Palette test:

Palettes are at the very bottom and apparenty also thrown into the top right sprite dump. If you look at the sprite dump, then the palette bars should be recognizable at the down left.
