edit: I had a look at those things that were listed, got no idea how to use them
Is there a way to extract the particular model from the game or has anyone successfully recreated the model?
Okay, I could download it with IE, but the program has some issues.
Here are my results:Code: [Select]>TIMpal_PSP.exe window.tim -4bpp out.psp
TIM to Paint Shop Pro
Usage:
TIMpal_PSP.exe file.tim out.psp
Input: file.tim - specify 8 BPP or 4 BPP TIM file Output file: out.txt spe
cify output fileCode: [Select]>TIMpal_PSP.exe window.tim -4bpp out.txt
TIM to Paint Shop Pro
Usage:
TIMpal_PSP.exe file.tim out.psp
Input: file.tim - specify 8 BPP or 4 BPP TIM file Output file: out.txt spe
cify output file
What is the correct syntax?
Jasc (Paint Shop Pro) Palette files start with the following 3 lines:Code: [Select]JASC-PAL
0100
256
Then that follows with 256 lines of RGB values (each colour value separated with a space, eg: 0 0 0)
Simple as that
JASC-PAL
0100
16

?Hmmm. To be honest, I don't know how the formatting for a ".PspPalette" or ".pal" file works.
However, I did find some resources on the file structure of a ".TIM" file awhile back, which includes the CLUT.

Thanks for the response.
I tried it and you guess: Epic fail (or almost)...
At least I could decompress the dat's, that worked. The files in the folder can't be decompressed though. It says "Not LZ77 compressed file; Header is wrong!"
It works!
How can I test the LZ77Decompress you posted, Maki. Or should I wait for your C Version?
Sorry, I'm a noob when it comes down to such things. ^^
Sorry my lack of knowledge, but these codes going... inside "Settings.ini" in HL_Files?
basically the enemy files and playable character files are almost the same, enemies have some extra sectiions (AI). It can be modified to match with e.g. squall file structure and just replace it and do the renames.
So I've setup Python and I can see that it works when I use cmd and type python I get the >>>
From there I use python.exe _ffiv.py and I get this error message:Code: [Select]>>> python.exe _ffiv.py
File "<stdin>", line 1
python.exe _ffiv.py

SyntaxError: invalid syntax
I changed your filepath so it matches mine. Am I missing something?
