Sprite Rip Problem

[Sam]

Anybody here knows how can I rip the in-game effects from sengoku basara x? I already see some chars with those sprites, but I can't contact the authors :~ So I wanna try to rip all by myself, but I don't even can play the game with the emulator xD I think the rippers has ripped it directly from the iso, but how can I do taht?

Authors all from mugen china? It's possible the rips are up on the mugen china forum. Some imagination may be needed to find the links to the downloads.

Otherwise, i dunno.

I'm sorry. English isn't my native language, so i think I don't explain it properly. I already have the character sprites. also I'm already coding him. What I want is the in-game effects, like hit sparks et.all . Those sprites aren't shared at mnugenchina, just the character and BG sprites.

EDIT: and all the authors are japanese xD Ahuron gave me ur permission to use some sprites, but his char doesn't have all of those sprites.

English is not my native language as well.

Anyway, I am not sure what console/handheld/arcade platform "Sengoku Basara X" is on.
But Wikipedia says its on PlayStation 2.
If it is on Ps2. You will need to have the game (either you have bought it on a disk or you will have to download the iso).
Use the emulator called "Pcsx2".
As soon as you get the game running you should use the program called "Artmoney" (its a hex code editor), you need to find the values for the lifebars (so you can remove them), the chars (remove them) and maybe other unnecessary effects that is in the way, you will need to find a way to remove the background to (then the background is black).
Because you have then removed everything then background should be just black. Then when hitting opponent, the semi transparent should pop up on the black, then just use animget to get them.

I know that xD the problem is the game isn't emulated properly yet, (or I'm doing something wrong xD). I've the original game, and I think the rippers should get the sprites directly from the iso, because the sprites that Ahuron gaves to me isn't animated, the animation is done by code.

Wuwo usually gets the sprites that way.
Maybe he is planning to do it?
Either wait for it or learn how to use the program he does.

It's exactly what I want xD Learn how he does, and what program he uses xD

[Anjel]

There is a help file on Chinese (I think) which someone is trying to translate for me.
Use the program in the thread I posted above.

Thanx man, I'll try it, and if I can discover how to use it I'll make a tutorial to share here o/

but looks hard xD
