It's at LEAST discernable, I just need to know how to fix the color.

#

Closest I've gotten to ripping ANYTHING from this game.

#

...Aaand I just randomly got it???

#

Sometimes it's a wrong bit format, sometimes wrong mode. Graphic data can be compressed in a thousand ways

#

As far as ingame animation, my luck isn't as good.

#

I think that's the Referee's head?

#

I'm close, I can feel it...

#

I had REALLY good luck on quite a few assets, just no character animation yet :/

real creek
#

Maybe try examining the character animation file with a hex editor

#

Since animations usually are a collection of sprites

There's SOMETHING there, just...

split lintel
#

it's a tiled 4bit image, 16x16

#

might need some offset adjusting

#

or its just like this, either one of them

worthy bolt
#

I hope it's not tiled by default, that's gonna make getting it a PAIN.

#

It's so close, just like...

worthy bolt
#

Anything on how to determine the correct offsets?

real creek
#

The only thing I can think of is a tilemap

#

It's a file that regulates the position of each tile in the image

#

The tilemap, if existing, is within the game files

#

And each one is related to a single graphic asset

worthy bolt
#

There's... not much left in the files, if I'm being honest.

#

This is the big one, all the character animation and stuff.

#

I've done well on this folder, presumably a lot of these that are left are specifically programming-related, or sounds that former mod Pingu already got ahold of for TSR. (But ignored the music and didn't release the script I think)

#

Maybe try importing the dat directly in Tilemap Studio

#

When importing try out the options Plain Tiles, and the two NDS ones, when prompted.

worthy bolt
#

Nope, nothing any clearer here.

real creek
#

send over the file

I'm really wanting to remake/reimagine this game, so i want to get as much as i can from the existing assets, i just...need some help figuring them out.

real creek
#

that sent file is odd

#

I could figure a bit of hope making the tile size 16x16

#

But it still looked a mess

worthy bolt
#

Here's all of the "(something)_GFX.DAT" files, if it helps.

#

Could get out a good-looking result changing the endianess of the graphic part

#

point is, there is no tilemap

#

can confirm, little endian on most dats gives smoother results

worthy bolt
#

Oooh! Most consistent result so far!

#

It's a start, at the very least.

#

Maybe i could screenshot the colors from Mame, and fix it all manually?

worthy bolt
#

Could these have anything to do with being tilemaps or palettes?

real creek
#

what is the game?

worthy bolt
#

Interstellar Wrestling League?

real creek
#

A mattel game????

#

Didn't know it even existed

split lintel
#

oh it's a hyperscan game, jeeze, didnt know these things were dumped
