Re: I can\'t extract the sprites from the .exe

They are army.trs etc. It is no conventional format and is only used in JK's own program spooky sprites. I don't know anything about formats, but I suspect it might be difficult to extract them. It is possible to make tga's from the sprites in spooky, but I'm not sure if you can extract a whole bunch at a time. If so I could probably make a library of tga's for modders.

If it's possible to create a single image containing all the sprites, that could be a quick and simple way of providing all the sprites for modders and would be entirely sufficient (especially if lateral offsets in each sprite are preserved or somehow inferrable) in my opinion - modders can crop out individual sprites as needed.

tc sprite x,y,n,scr,spr
This instruction draws a sprite created with Spooky Sprites (by Johan Karlsson - d92jk@efd.lth.se ) in true colour mode. X and Y are the co-ordinates at which to plot the sprite. N is the number of the sprite to draw. SCR is the address of the screen, and SPR is the address of the sprite bank.

Re: I can\'t extract the sprites from the .exe
The download URL seems broken. Does anyone have the file?

Re: I can\'t extract the sprites from the .exe
Has anyone explored this further? This approach would be MUCH better then my planned automated screen shot capture method.

Re: I can\'t extract the sprites from the .exe
spooky4.lzh extracted and re-packed into spooky4.zip.
Anyone up to launching this old, old version of Spooky Sprites and seeing what happens?
Found from here:

Re: I can\'t extract the sprites from the .exe
If someone is able to get this software working well enough to extract 1 sprite I can probably build a macro that can automate mouse movement, clicks and sending keys to the program.
So assuming you have to manually extract each sprite (vs having some kind of batch command) I could likely setup something to "batch" it.
