I would like to learn how to rip the map textures from Harvest Moon DS, as I would love to make a 24H Desktop Wallpaper with the entirety of Forget-Me-Not-Valley. Unfortunately there is very little of the maps so i was wondering if anyone could teach lil ol me how to do it, or if they were willing to help with it! later I would like to rip the other assets, but if I could learn the basics that would be huge

Ok so like

#

I think you should use the Desmume emulator

#

It has a built-in map viewer, last time I checked.

#

So you can save the backgrounds as png files.

#

And then later combine the pieces you get using an image editor

Okay I’ll check that out! But do u know if there’s a way for a direct asset rip as well?

#

I think that'd be much harder

#

You would need to figure out how to extract the assets

#

Unfortunately, I do not have the skills neccessary to do that.

DS asset extraction is generally very easy

#

But analysing them is another thing. Some formats are well defined and understood and tools exist, but some formats could might as well be custom/need deeper analysis
