[RIPPING] 2D Rayman Sprites and Backgrounds

[spiraldoor]

This should help with the stone background:

I'm afraid it will take some time tough It's really annoying, i've never seen some backgrounds and i need to put them together. But i'll do my best.

I'm not in hurry, don't get nervous, take time.

[Joshua822]

Oh, i forgot to mention that i don't need any credits

[Droolie]

Uh, well... BUMP, I guess.

I'm still trying to figure out how to rip the backgrounds and sprites from the data, but I'm closer to ripping them now.
Look at this topic here if you want to see my progress.

[Hunchman801]

We can see the real pictures behind that thing, by the way. I'm sure it's possible to extract them, but how?

[Droolie]

Happy new year!

[spiraldoor]

Hooray.

[Hunchman801]

There's still a problem with file headers which prevents us from ripping all textures from the game. And I have no idea where those headers are stored

[spiraldoor]

...oh. I see...

Well, we can now rip some of the textures, right?

Tiles, backgrounds, sprites?

[Droolie]

Your wish shall become reality!

Get ready for this... ^^

I don't know where this is used in the game at all.


UbiSoft! ^^


The Piracy text that shows up at the beginning of the game.


The Language selection screen is actually just a big picture!


Two images/backgrounds used in the menu.


The World images, of course.


The intro images, from before they scrapped the images and made it a video.


Mr. Dark seems to be obsessed with Betilla! o_O


Three friends...


The end! ^^


On vacation...

Oh, and...

Continue or die!


One of the Caves of Skops backgrounds.

Yay, finally finished copy-pasting links.

So basically, I can rip normal images ( not sprites, because the program I use doesn't support picking palettes ) from R1 for PS1 now. I can also rip backgrounds, but I have to put them together, and it takes quite a lot of time. So stay tuned for more backgrounds!^^

Please check my post again

2009 is the best year so far!

You get a thousand Tings for this.

[Droolie]

Awesome, thanks for the tings. =D
I added text to explain what everything is, but I guess most of you already know that.

[spiraldoor]

Oddly, I've never actually seen that picture of Space Mama before. But it's a cube during the credits, so there must be a sixth side...

[Droolie]

Strange, I had seen it before.
Oh well, I need to go now. No more backgrounds for today!
I'll post some backgrounds tomorrow though.

[Cairnie]

FUKKIN SAVED : D

I've never seen the Space Mama vacation pic either, I bet it got cut out as censorship or something. It's not exactly a rule 34 or anything.

[spiraldoor]

Maybe it's a version thingy? Drol, do you have the NTSC ISO? Me and Stacey would have the PAL version.

The intro images, from before they scrapped the images and made it a video.

Those were on the PS1 disc?

[Droolie]

No, I have the PAL ISO, but I think I saw it in the PC version.
And yes, they were on the PS1 disc, oddly enough. I only saw them before in the jaguar version though...

[spiraldoor]

I got bored, so I made this:

Now, for something more interesting:

I downloaded an R2 DC ISO in BIN + CUE format, and while I was fooling around with nullDC in an unsuccessful attempt to get it to work, I tried converting the BIN to an ISO, and mounting the ISO on a virtual drive. Needless to say, nullDC didn't run the ISO.

HOWEVER...I took a look at the files in the ISO, searched through all the folders and everything, and I was pleasantly surprised that I could actually rip some of the images. Here they are:



















I'm not sure if I've done something of note or not, but, well, there it is.

There were also a few WAVE audio files. It wouldn't let me play some of them; it said I needed the audio codec. But others worked. But there are only a few, and nothing that isn't on RayTunes.

I also found a link to the rayman2dc.com website, and the main page of site came up, but there was hardly anything on it, and when I tried to enter the site itself I found it to be completely...dead. Gone. Not there at all.

There are all sorts of other files, if anyone wants them, I can provide...
