Welcome adventurers! I see that you are interested in exploring new, exciting lands, battling enemies of all shapes and sizes and have a nose for finding so much treasure that you can dive into it! Now that that's over, a clearer idea of what this thread is about is Dragon's Crown's graphic data. After a bit of digging, I was able to find a way to extract items from the game. Having said that, there's no quick way to do this. Everything must be done one item at a time.For those who haven't played Dragon's Crown, it's beautiful scenery and animation is something to behold, hence my fascination with showing everyone the game. And to give a brief idea of what you're getting into, the graphics are being exported into PNG form and in typical Vanillaware fashion, all of the items are tiled, rotated oddly, and when being pieced together, have overlapping edges. This isn't really the case with some of the stage textures, but you'll have a heck of a time putting the characters and enemies together. But nothing in life is easy. So if you plan on doing something with the data(hint hint: stages), just take your time and have fun with it.I am currently taking requests for particular parts of the game. Additionally, you should message me with requests because I have a habit of forgetting the threads I make. So do that too as well as leaving a request in this thread.If you're wanting something from the game, let me know and I can try and find it. Some of the file names are vaguely named and might take me a little time to find exactly what you're looking for. And for the record, everything I post will be in full-size, uncropped PNG format.Credit is nice, if you're going to use something I've ripped, but not necessary. However, if you plan on submitting these packs to another website, please notify me and note that I ripped them. And finally, the data!

I've never had the chance to play this game before but i do love the art style that was used for this game.Can you rip this background level or all the backgrounds.Spoiler, click to toggle visibilty
That's cool. I look forward to some stages being made from these rips. This reminds me that I need to hop back on DC. Been awhile for me. Also thanks for the treasure artwork.

OH-Mazing said, November 10, 2013, 09:17:08 pmYou ripped all the stages from this game?Not yet. It's a pretty slow process overall, so I'm ripping in my free time and am taking requests for particular areas of the game.

If i see anything i will let you know.
OH-Mazing said, November 10, 2013, 09:42:13 pmOkay, can you rip the spot at 5:57?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAt-WPK3WrMDone.
before someone else asks, and i let a good day pass, what's up with the game's characters, are they in a different format to the items/stages ?
Hoshi said, November 11, 2013, 07:04:37 pmNope. No one's asked of them yet. :3oh, so same format as the rest of the items ?
I assume someone is gonna ask for sorceress or barbaria very soon; if those require a lto of assembly work you might want to rip the base tiles and make a topic for them in the sprite projects forum so more people can chip in and help assemble.
I can rip all of the character stuff. It'll take me a bit id people want the alternate colors and the various weapons associated with each character. I suppose that'll be the next thing I post!
hah, assembling those requires a lot of dedication, i would barely make up some of the pieces, and especially in the case of bow even though she was missing pieces. at least we got butt's bare butt though it has no ass crack.
I have not had the chance look into any of the stuff you've ripped yet, but I just wanted to extend my thanks for your efforts. It's appreciated!
Enemy said, November 18, 2013, 08:22:07 pmCould you possibly rip the areas at 15:11 and 20:32 please?Supdated. Lemme know if you notice anything missing.
Those Amazon rips will be mighty useful to help me make an accurate costume. :3Thanks for them, Hoshi.
I'm surprised no one has asked for the PvP arena. That seems like the most likely candidate for stage conversion. Officially asking for that. Pleases?Spoiler: Thisssss (click to see content)After the menu stuff, obviously. Such a great background.edit: HUD would be a nice bonus, but I don't want to ask for too much. I'd probably only even use the stuff to analyze and maaaaaybe convert to pixels for whoever might want to code a legitimate set of bars. Excellent stuff, Hoshi.
The HUD stuff isn't really put together like it shows in the game. I'll post up the other character assets over the next couple of days and then the rest of the item stuffs and fonts that would make up the HUD.Also, updated with BATORU ARIINAEDIT:For the record, I've been trying to find ways to extract the audio from the game but it's proving rather difficult. If someone can figure it out, let me know and I can add it to this thread(and host it if need be).
Thank you so much for these, they're very pretty I wonder if you have time to rip out the food and other misc items? Thank you in advance!
I actually made an account JUST to put in a request here. Do you mind ripping the effects from the game? Things like fireballs, whirlwinds, lightning, ice, explosions, etc.? I don't know of anyone who has them yet, and considering that they are 2d sprites I figured they should be pretty simple compared to the 3d stuff. BTW somebody already ripped a good amount of character skins from the game (if not all of it): http://pastebin.com/1vL5kzy2
Hey my pleasure! Though sorry to tell you, but what you put up is probably not even a 10th of the effects. No lightning, no ice, fireballs are missing, no whirlwind, large explosions missing, etc. etc. Any chance of getting the rest? Keep in mind players have some, bosses, and then there are common ones (like you put up too). If getting them all is asking too much I could be more specific if you like?
I looked again today and it looks like the ice, lightning, and whirlwind ones are there, but are cut up and all white, which is why I didn't notice them before. There still appears to be some missing, but not nearly as much as I thought before. Definitely don't see the base fireballs or unique ones from enemies, players, bosses, etc. But those 3 sheets you ripped might be what is known as all the COMMON sprites in game.
There's more effects in the enemy sheets. I'm working on ripping them slowly because I have classes. I'll post them up as a giant pack later. :3
Massive update.Shields, Stones and Staffs uploaded.All enemy textures. These include some effects.Large portraits.Misc items.To do:Upload the Ability Tarot cards.Remaining stage textures (I've ripped them, I just need to label them)Misc things I may have missed.That fucking music.
Amazing work Hoshi, thanks a lot! I downloaded all of the enemy files and they have what I was looking for! I will be sure to credit you for ripping the sprites. I will put a lot of the effects to good use in my castlevania: symphony of the night engine.Link to blog for any who want to see: http://sotnhacked.wordpress.com/
They will. particularly the effects from in game (though I will edit them a bit so that they are not EXACTLY the same ones). Are you planning to rip any of the sound effects too or do you know of anyone who has?
The sounds and music are something that I've heard can be done, but I haven't found resources to do so. Everything I've tried has led to empty files with 0kb sizes. :/
Odd.... mind if I ask how you are attempting to rip them? I have a bit of experience hacking/programming/ripping and a TON of tools. I might be able to give it a try or at least assist.I THOUGHT I saw a thread about sound effects for it somewhere on the net... but I can't find it now.On a side note: got any SFIV rips? I can't find any working links for stuff other than some hit sparks.
So if for example, I wanted to download resources involving the game's stages, which file(s) should I download?
Everything that is a place or sounds like a place are the areas of the game where there is fighting involved. Those would probably be the ones you'd want.escoI'll message you with some files I've been able to extract that I know contain the music and you can take a look at them.
I have now found a way to listen to the raw audio files from the game. I'll post them up when I've finished converting them
Edited original post to include a sample of what I'm able to rip. I've uploaded the Ancient Dragon Battle music. A track no one seems to have been able to rip previously. More to come.Additionally, the player I'm using loops the music properly, so if you want a particular song at a particular length, I can record any length within reason. Just post here or message me.
