Heroes of Might and Magic IV
#1
Smart people of tSR forum, I have another request for you guys.
I've ripped the sprites from Heroes of Might and Magic 1, 2 and 3 using "third-party" softwares, but for the fourth game there are no such tools.

There is a software capable of seeing the sprites inside the data archive, as you guys can see in this little tutorial. Butr ripping with this software is too painful, I would need to take thousand screenshots...
The sprite files are inside a .h4r file and I was able to open and extract using the "Total Comander" software. These spirte files are .gz files and when I open these files (with 7zip or WinRAR) there is a file without extension inside.

Does anyone knows how can I see the images inside this .gz file?
Can I share one of these files here or is against our rules?

Thanks in advance
You only finish a game when you rip its sprites.
Sprite sheet is a sticker album that depends only on your efforts to be fill.

Yeah, if you could upload it I can take a gander. You're allowed to share files, but you should probably host them elsewhere and just give the link.

(Also someone might wanna move this to QiT?)

Last but not least, here's the software capable of viewing the sprites inside the files; maybe it can help your research.
Cheers!

Is this project still current?

It lacks a proper extractor. So, it's impossible to predict when it will be done. I can't rip the sprites one by one, not in the next fews years...
