Question

I want to extract all the game's Atari ST art assets.

MechMel opened this issue a year ago · comments

I want attempt to recreate parts of the original Sundog game for a fun. I was trying to extract the original art assets via screen shots and then recolor them, but I realized that it might be easier see if there was a way to just extract the assets from the original game. Is an easy way to do this?

Yes, that's fairly easy. There's a few different assets and scripts to export them:

src/rip_images.c exports the static images (map tiles etc)
tools/extract_gfx.py extracts the font
tools/dump_sprites.py dumps a few sprites

There's also the item icon,s I don't exactly remember how to export those right now, I'll post when I can remember or just upload them 😄

I could only work on it a bit here and there, and it took me a bit to figure out the extractors, but it worked excellently, and I got everything. Thanks!
