That's awesome mr sprinkles,
Good work!

Good Day, Just wondering. The Mine Elevator platform is not working in my program. Does it differ somehow to the other sprites? I used the Address in the sprite viewer and converted it to a PC address but it gives a bunch of corrupted tiles. Do I have to manually assemble the sprite tiles? Mine_Plat...

Nice!!

Just two suggestions I have if you are interested...

- Highlight the selected pixel arrangement in the Preview window.
- Select a sprite by address. Right now you have to use the Image field.


I have a few more things but then I'm nit picking....

I think I found a bug. See image. The last two 16x16 groups are not correct. It shows up correctly in the main view but not in the tile editor.

I was able to locate and extract the first tile of the Millstone.
Where is the array of tile coordinates and does it have a header?

Thanks

I found the small animal Tokens.

Now how do I find the address of the first tile in that program?



and the Millstones

Well I found part of of a banana

So... I know were the bananas are located But I don't know how to use the palette editor to find them... I just get gibberish. I tried increasing / decreasing the bits. I loaded a save state as well and scrolled through the ROM. Location_Of_Banana.png Below is proof I'm not totally going bananas lol...

Good to know thanks, I bet they are compressed right?

Also the small animal tokens are not in your sprite viewer. How can I locate them? I want to learn how to locate them in the YY-CHR.NET

Thanks!

Hello, I came across a few more missing sprites. The DK Barrel, and Millstones.

Are the barrels made up of two sprites overlay ed?

Edit*

I would like to figure this out on my own, but need direction.

Thanks

Thanks for the confirmation Mattrizzle.

If ya feel like taking a gander I extracted and ordered all the map head icons and put them in a zip archive.

The map heads share sprite ID $0088. IDs less than $008C (D.K.'s first one) are handled differently from the others in that they do not load their own graphics. So the map icons all have the same X Y coordinates and said coordinates are located in the same spot in the ROM? Below are a few sprites. ...

I couldn't find the coordinates for the map sprites...




Here is one with more then 1 2x2, correct?

How are the coordinates wrong?
I compared it to the spriters resource one and they look the same to me?

Thanks. Got it working now!

Thanks Mattrizzle.

Sorry for sounding dumb but what is the address of the first tile of a map head sprite? I have been spelunking through the hex editor but I'm lost.
Do they have headers like the other sprites?

This is the info I get in the editor,

Hi,

I can't find the addresses of the sprite heads that are on the map screen.

I know that LOL. I just wanted to see it in action not still image.

Thanks but you didn't show the folders / png being created or the images in the folders

Edit
Oops I see the folders being created.
But I wold like to see the files in the folders

hmm. that's strange, I am using windows 10.

What screen capture are you using?

If you are up to it could you record it working?

Thanks, rainbowsprinklez

I just tried to re-create your problem by dragging and dropping the folder into the console but I don't get the quotes you are referring to.

I'm glad its working. Thanks for trying itout!

I tested this.

I made sure the folders are created before the extraction starts.
That may be why its not working for you.

I do test, it was and is working on my end.

Did the updated version work?

This should work?



I removed the folder creation code. Now the images are extracted to the folder where the ROM is located.


Thanks for testing it mr sprinkles

So it works then?
Can you post a pic?
Maybe SIMION32 can move the topic?

Are they all like that or just those?

What OS are you using?

Yes I know this has been done already but this is for fun. :) Check it out and enjoy! See the readme first for more info. Thanks for looking! https://www.mediafire.com/file/v0bzytaivbvu7zg/DKC1_Sprite_Extractor_Beta_Version._0.1.zip/file DKC1_Sprite_Extractor_Beta_Version. 0.1.zip *Note this is no w...

Heres another... doesn't make sense whey there appears to be missing pixels!

Is it just me or is DK's hands look mangled in the image I previously posted?

Looking at your example his hands look look fine and his fingers are more defined....





some how the black background makes his fingers more defined?

Is there an updated version of this? One that includes unused sprites? And one that DOESN'T GIVE ME A WARNING WHEN i RUN IT,

Yes! Happy bday Qyzbud!

I understand your logic Mattrizzle, its just hard to beleave that RARE would do this... Here are a few more... In these examples The tiles are not connected. Foot not attached. Looks the same as the spriters resource sprite sheet. 1144.png Nose not attached. In this case it is attached in the sprite...

hmm. I don't understand the logic behind the odd tiles... In the example i showed above there is a chunk that looks like its missing from his arse lol.

Why did Rare do that and why didn't I notice this.
Very strange!

Thanks for the examples Mattrizzle. Soo weird that i didn't notice it before!! Here is another example of a weird tile. see his mouth in the below example... I swear something weird is going on or mabe i'm just going bananas... 1032.png I have been noticing a lot of sprites with obvious looking blac...

That's odd. DO you have another example?

That video you posted looks sped up some.

Here is another video. But its too blury

This is what I get in rainbowsprinkles editor.

Yea that's what I thought.

I get that missing tile in rainbow's sprite editor and in Matts' sprite viewer and in my program.
That's why I was asking if it was corrupt.
Thanks.

Good day,
There is a wrong tile in a Donkey Kong sprite.
However the sprite on the spriters resource it seems correct.... the black square tile seems offset some.
The sprite in question is at address C4ED4A.
see image.

Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

I fixed it, there is a value that is off in the rom....

I'm having an issue with one row of a tile. I got the extraction working on most sprites so far except for this one below. The top row of each tile is not writing to the png properly. I think its a problem with the bit set function? Any ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks. Seen here... 558_worki...

sorry user error. fixed!

Hi,

my code is generating a ' blank' spot in my sprite.
Just wondering if this is attended or there is something wrong with my code.



Address =

Thanks in advance!

Well the computer build was a success with a few scares.

Now I just need some 3D software. Either Blender or 3ds Max. However 3ds Max is too expensive. But Blender is free. However all my project files are for 3ds max.
Confused!

Thanks Super Luigi. I’ve had my illness for 13-15years. It got to point where I couldn’t function. But now that I took a 5 year break I will do my best to pick up where I left off. I bought all new computer components and need to assemble them. So if all goes well I can continue my project. It all d...

Thanks for the concern but I want to push through my illness despite it.

I know this is a big bump but I’m really considering continuing this project.

I am building a new modern computer and am feeling inspired despite my illness!

Why didn't someone notice this way sooner???
I find it baffling that no one encountered this!

When I click on the 'SHORT LINK' it goes to some random site with malware.....

Yes I did a quick search and found that.

Thanks!

The tutorial is meant mainly for me.
It’s a way to sort out my thoughts.
Yes I am sharing things.

I already made a tutorial on bitplains and it has helped me a lot.

And I need to do the tutorial soon while it’s still in my head

Am I making sense?
