You can blame the PS2's maximum texture size for that one.  512x512.

I see...
Lots of thanks for the great rips you guys have made

I'd like to request one of VAkiha's win portrait images, it's the one where it looks like she has her finger to her lip
This one?

Also, I found all the win-pose files in a clump... so... yeah... >.>;

Still waiting on my request. x_X But I do appreciate all the work that's going into this. May I also request W. Len's character select artwork?

And BAM.

Every single win pose in the game ripped by yours truly.

Hopefully this saves people some time.

Crap, I wasn't expecting this and I suddenly came.
It seems we have one more person whose heat count should be raised to infinity, gentlemen.
Crap, you even went as far as to separate some pics who couldn't be screened in one go.

*Shiki pic*

I have never seen this Shiki win pose before!

I'd guess that'd be against Roa. Or maybe Ryougi.

Could you rip Aoko please. I have taken caps using the emulator but it doesn't compare to the actual images.
Aoko
standard
hi-score
(...)
[queued]
I'm doing the rips more or less by asking order, so yours might take some time, ok?

No problem. Thanks :D

What, you mean you NEVER wondered why you can't have an good ending in Akiha's route?
SHUT UP, THE EPIC MANLINESS EXUDED IN BOTH OF HER ENDINGS IS ENOUGH TO COMPENSATE FOR THE FACT THAT THERE'S NOT A REAL ENDING IN WHICH SHIKI GETS TO CONSISTENTLY BANG AKIHA. D:<

Fixed Win-Poses. Now with 100% more transparency!

So yeah, I managed to unbreak the alpha channels. I'd advise grabbing this zip file over the other zip with the .bmp versions because these are easier to work with.

Enjoy.

Does this rant actually convey a desperate, albeit scarcely probable desire to see such an ending in the Tsukihime remake? I mean, even if there ARE Akiha endings, there is no ending in which you really can grant her wish.

sorry to bother you again landxhp, but when you have the free time could you please rip Arcueid alternate win pose and the win pose against Roa and don't forget the hiscore, only when you have the free time and finished with the other requests please and thanks ;)

So I guess we're both doing it wrong:



But I think Erkz are the most qualified person to keep on doing the rips - simply because I am no programmer and he knows a faster way to rip with more quality than I do... thus putting my hours of slow emulation ripping to complete waste =_='''

If I and maybe Blue Shirt could be able to decrypt MEPROFS.CVM's Table of Contents, there is a chance that the file may be mountable on DaemonTools, allowing us to see every file this game has to offer, including sprite data.

Once that's done, well, it'll be done. :P

We already managed to chop bytes off the file, and cvm_div can generate a list of all files in the compressed image.

Of course, we probably have been beaten to the punch. Ah well. Can't say I/we/you didn't try. :3

I wouldn't have noticed if Azure Macabre hadn't pointed it out. Somehow, I broke the alpha channels when I was ripping them earlier. I thought the game used separate alpha channel files like the earlier games, but I guess I hadn't done my research right. So, I just fixed it.

I'm not sure how you're ripping it via emulator, but if the alpha channels are available somehow, you can just apply them to your rips and you'd get the same quality.

So it's not a waste.

Mountable in Daemon Tools? Uh... why go through all that? Just open it in winrar. [When you get it decrypted.]

Also, I've been trying to do the same thing, and no. I haven't beaten you to the punch. I'm manually extracting the image files via hex editor and a partial TOC ripped from the game's RAM. Alot more tedious, but easier for me because I fail at decrypting TOCs.

Also... How'd you get cvm_div to display a list? Mine breaks as soon as it tries to read the file. :slowpoke:

Did you chop off the header first?

For cvm_div to display a list, just make the batch file with a "cvm_div file.cvm" command. Just that. Nothing else.
Your PC will start beeping like mad, though.
Plus, it doesn't save a log of every file it has found. :/

But we're close, and s'what counts.

...say, you wouldn't mind seeing if there's any Roa tiles you could send over? :P

USe the > operator in the comand line to redirect output to a file.  You don't need the program to do that for you.

As for the alpha channel business, texture ripping will preserve those, the only problem is I have never been able to find a program that will load dds files without placing a background under it.


And when all else fails, wait for Kaihoku to dump everything at MugenChina :P

I've got a lot of plugins to detect different filetypes and different programs to open those files, but apparently the .dds plugin I got for Photoshop isn't working and I can't get it to recognize that kind of file. If I could open it directly into Photoshop then maybe it would get the transparency right...

Anyway, I dunno how to crack those files like you do, but thankfully there's capable people in the world that can get the job done :V
