I'm a communication / hacking asset? Guys I'm lead programmer on this:

I'm still looking over this thread from time to time


I think I mentioned the part about you making your own games.

Do you still have the master files/code for that Warlock thing you were working on, btw?

You've made some of the most significant progress here concerning booting the E3 disk, and cracking the texture formats.

DB_TEXTURES file contains small textures. SubDrag has extracted them in * .bmp format, but there are some misplaced pixels. Anyone can fix this problem?

https://1drv.ms/u/s!At5UFPlAfd_VzyQYHeyllxXSCy47

Looking carefully at the textures, I suggest that they are intended for a kind of circuit, as for Pro-Am64.




Firstly, gotta say that download link was annoying...

secondly, could this be in any way similar to the "corruption" hugo peters encountered when he first created Kyte's Command?

That's my only guess...

WIP



I wouldn't write it off as strictly impossible, but it is difficult, and I cannot come-up with a solution.

I think one way is by finding a combination that is just overpowering. Two things I can't tolerate: sickly sweet, and I actually am quite sensitive to salt.

so something like:
salty + salty + salty
sweet + sweet + sweet

Then taking into account how flavors tend to blend together, you could basically create from your base flavors/food a new flavor or two that just don't work...

But the other thing to also consider is you can over-do a single ingredient. And that's where this challenge is kind of ambiguous to how MUCH. You pile a cup of salt on my scrambled eggs, I might have to end you... sprinkle a pinch of it on there, you're good... There's also not seeming to be considered how many foods are already hybrids with a mixture of flavors (like smoothies)

This is indeed subjective. There are people who like eating extremely hot peppers. I'm currently maxed at Jalapenos.

Now, in the context of how DIFFICULT this actually is:
kraft easy mac + tuna + mayo + dill relish
with the RIGHT proportions of ingredients, this is delicious!

In general, recipes are a balancing act.

So, my theory on why this is possible and how it could potentially be answered centers on that if you can come-up with an unbalanced combination, you've beaten it. But, as FireyIce has said, this is subjective. What I find incompatible someone else might like and vice-versa. I'm sure it's possible. Just extremely difficult. Here's something I made years ago that probably doesn't meet the challenge, but: graham crackers + PB + sugar. Tasted pretty gross, and I don't recommend re-creating it.

Anyways, that's my thoughts on this.

But then, there are people who actually really like these mods too.


I'm still waiting for a minecraft "knock-off" to come out that is actually better than minecraft itself, you'd imagine it wouldn't be hard. But somehow it seems to be, most that come out are merely worse and try to capitalize on the minecraft fame. *sigh*


That he has.
One of my favorite mods was the Mine Little Brony mod (cuz, yeah, I'm a Brony)
I may try to upgrade it sometime, but I just can't grasp how the outdated code is working, and the decompiler isn't actually decompiling EVERYTHING right, either... I must say its performance took one hell of a dive after switching to Forge. I must agree "progression for progressions sake" You hit THAT nail right on the head. I think my problem WATCHING modded MineCraft stems from the fact that mods have a steep learning curve. We need more of the whimsical and fun mods again. (aside from lucky block variations everywhere) Some mods I feel WERE going in the right direction before dying or trying too hard to balance stuff: Buildcraft, Mine Little Brony, Crystal Dimension (no, not that ugly overrated piece of shit in orespawn, this was its own little mod, and looked way awesome, especially with shaders). Up to a point, most of the stuff PopularMMOs was reviewing seemed fun. However, now there's balancing systems or mods that are just too trendy or "meh". One mod I personally recommend aside from balance/performance/compatibility issues is the GraveStone mod by NightKosh. He seems to have gone MIA, though, concerning, being that he's from Russia. There are also two open source re-makes of the over-hyped and currently undelivered mod, Xycraft. Of those two, I'd say Hexcraft is my favorite. There hasn't been recent activity from their team, though. I really hope they don't either get C&D'd by Soarin, or try to over-balance stuff. However, I also hope they haven't just up and quit. Good mods are hard to find, but they are still out there.

Well, several people have started these clones and not finished them. The rest are vastly overrated copycats of either MC or each other, which sadly so many people fail to see. You'd think it's easy, but MC is probably among the more complex games EVER to be created. (and that's pretending the class structure wasn't a pain to navigate, you ever try decompiling with minecraft/mod coder pack?) procedural terrain generation (most of which is hard-coded, even despite the new structure blocks) , terrain editing, mob combat, farming, fishing, electricity, optional command line interface, multiplayer, chat, 3D, models are comprised of a not-pretty mixture of java and opengl (java interface for it, that is) code (only now starting to migrate to JSON, but there's still the java/opengl backend), inventory system, tabbed creative inventory system, permissions system, and etc... Re-implementing minecraft's features in any engine/language is no small feat. Making it perform well is ANOTHER challenge. If I may propose this theory, though, i think a Nintendo DS could probably process a more basic edition of MC. Just Saying, I cannot say I recommend this. I kinda have plans to make a MC clone at some time in the future, but don't get your hopes up. I have quite a few projects relating to the cloning/porting of games as-is, and MineCraft will likely be the single most difficult one I attempt. It's not currently planned, and I'd be more likely to try porting/re-making DP (not necessarily in 3D) than to clone the complexity that is MineCraft. I do have ONE mc-related coding project in the form of a model viewer, but my rendering system (it's software based, and I didn't program it, obviously) doesn't z-sort well (or scale textures... but I can easily make a system for that), and MC's entity models are proving quite the pain to actually extract because they use a lot of trigonometry and 3d transforms to keep shit in-line. That said, making a good MC clone? PAIN IN THE ASS? Dare I show my ugly and imperfect mess of code attempting to render the Ocelot? LOL

tl:dr (mc clone):
yes, most try just to capitalize on the fame, the rest probably become overwhelmed by the enormous complexity of making the MC engine from scratch, or with another tool/engine.

I been playing shell shock live lately... (an hour or so per day, it's so damn grindy, and some of the other players are dicks... (or at least, arrogant because of their high levels, and OP premium weapons...))

slightly irrelevant:
Peter Jackson's King Kong Signature Edition by Ubisoft CD-ROM, WINDOWS
I'd like a somewhat non-biased review on this, well... the lite edition
Is this worth investing my time in playing?
I got it for like $2 at a yardsale store type of place, so it's not really a loss in monetary investment.
But, is it worth me sinking any time into it? (assuming it's intact)
That's actually pretty valuable to me at present.

Hmm, Rare and their formats...

On a somewhat unrelated note, project64's texture dumper actually doesn't dump some of the textures from Bad Fur Day correctly... (and I'd guess it's a Rare formatting issue, since why else would the textures extract the wrong way?) Oddly, they render in-game quite well.

I almost wonder, hypothetically speaking we ever see a DP ROM (even if it's broken, I'd think we could get the filesystem at least) , will it be easier to bust the 'official' DP ROM, or harder? My theory is we'd know the ins and outs of most the formats, or will we be surprised by more weird-ass shit? LOL...

Anyways, Now that I think of it, what you're saying actually makes sense. (ain't I a n00b with hacking...but that's why I'm not writing any tools for this game!) But that raises the question on where/what is the data for correcting this?

On that note, one of the best tongue-in-cheek answers to this is "a shot of tequila, a shot of tequila, and a shot of tequila."

Regardless, there's no restriction on what the foods can be beyond the fact that you would enjoy any two of them combined. For example, you can consider a sandwich as a single food or as a combination of different foods as you see fit. The amount of each food is the amount you would add to make it sufficiently delicious, as long as you add enough of it to be noticeable. That is, I wouldn't call a cup of tea with a single grain of salt to be a true combination of tea and salt.

There are certainly reasonable arguments that this is "impossible" in general, but I'm curious to see what you all think they might be.


alright:
water + 1/3 the fatal dose of cyanide
water + 1/3 the fatal dose of cyanide
water + 1/3 the fatal dose of cyanide

reason: U WILL DIE
lol

ok, in all seriousness, I thought of a THEORY right before bed last night:
I am not testing this, and I'm basing to some extent on assumptions ONE of these pairs can be fine-tuned to WORK:
Oranges/OJ , chocolate, Jalapenos
Oranges + Chocolate: just barely compatible
Oranges + Jalapeno: I'm theorizing there's a mixture of these that doesn't taste like shit
Chocolate + Jalapeno: confirmed (for some) to be compatible, but again... just barely.

My theory here is that you can balance any one of these pairs to where it's at least tolerable.
But, since all three pairs require fine-tuning, it's impossible to fine-tune the mixture when you add the third ingredient. One either will become overpowering, masking one or both of the others, or they'll all combine to some seriously vomit-inducing concoction.

But, this is all a theory, and I'm not crazy enough to attempt it.

I do have to wonder how much of that file is in DKR though, given that the SFA E3 2002 prototype also has DKR assets in it.

On that note, the ending is in the SFA E3 2002 prototype and appears to be mostly/completely the same as the final version.

As for the wiki page for the prototype, I've gotten some more things in there like mission texts and leftover graphics from the E3 2001 and SpaceWorld 2001 demos. There's still plenty more to do, though.


What amazes me is how little they actually clean stuff out....

Especially for a company so shrouded in secrecy, it's almost like they WANT this stuff to be found...
I don't think a lot of games tended to have SO MUCH unused content from previous versions and/or projects. It's crazy! I wonder just how much we COULD find on an even earlier build of SFA? Well, we can keep hoping. I find it very hard to believe absolutely no one has come-forward with a copy, or at least made one. And as often as Nintendo leaks stuff, I'm kinda surprised someone, there hasn't leaked it. Wonder if their copies of stuff are under EXTREME lock and key? Well, guess we'll see what happens...

I will not post the information, lest I tick someone off, I looked into one of the claims of a copy existing... (I honestly fully expect it to be a hoax, so... my hopes wouldn't be dashed if I definitively PROVED it) I can't get much other than a vague description of an alleged [former?] Rare Employee... Supposedly it's more the words of his friend than him. I don;t know if anyone saw a post on the fyeah DP tumblr? I was browsing a while ago and found claims of a secret cartridge/copy existing. Anyways, I don't recall finding any followup to this, so I contacted the guy (sometime pre-dating or right after me joining here) on Deviantart. However, he seems to be concerned about others' privacy and won't make any effort to try getting me contact details. Or so, that's what he claims. My thoughts are moreso he's stone-walling, but I can't confirm or deny this. I did mention that he should leave it to OTHERS to decide whether they want someone to contact them or not. This seems to have had no effect, and he's pretty much refused to even reply to my messages. I just sent one last night and no reply. My note tracker says it's read, so I do not expect anything further. Anyways, IDK if anyone ever confirmed or busted this story. I know I searched for any follow-ups to it, but to no avail. My honest opinion it probably is false. The secondary is it's indeed legit, but there's insufficient information to track-down an actual lead. Unless anyone has further information, that's all I can/will publicly state about this matter. Given his complete unwillingness to allow me to try contacting his supposed friend or this supposed Rare employee (I think I'd need to go through his friend to do so...), I won't mention any more specific details. I also asked in my last note if I'm even allowed to mention the very little bit of information he has given... (assuming it's even true...) So, yeah, there's that... Whether this is true or not, I'm more annoyed by the fact I CAN'T actually PROVE without a shadow of a doubt it's EITHER. Anyone else have better information? I contacted the admin of the fyeah DP tumblr, but I'm guessing they're more active on Tumblr than here... /:

That's all... for now
I do have more to brush-up on concerning some other replies, but I'm already stalling helping my mom make dinner as-is...

As for cleaning the contents of the disc, this was without intention obviously. Rare was under immense time pressure to finish SFA and the codebase is a direct port from N64 to Gamecube. So that means stuff relies on other stuff relies on other stuff, too much work to figure out what is being used and not, so they don't clean up - it's perfectly normal in the industry... time is money.
Honestly you talking about programming sounds like a kid holding an iPad for the first time. Your texture data is pointing to some memory location, this can either be an array which you define inline, or some resource pointer. No way anyone would define textures as an array, that's retarded, even the N64 had file I/O, or at least pointers to static memory locations within the ROM of the resources.

Now, would you please cease your attempt at writing a book about "Can somebody leak the rom, why isn't some employee doing it, wtf is with them, I have a dream." in every single post? It makes reading this thread a chore.

Thanks, cheerie.


Denying someone ELSE's contact details without asking them is unethical and shady, so no...I'm not going too deep... I also offered to release some of my least sensitive ones. Again, DENIED... Also, you talk about business... stonewalling like that is a GREAT way to interfere with someone's business. Rest assured, if I were to find-out that someone were refusing to share my information without ASKING me about it, or telling me someone's interested, you bet your ass I'll be pissed, and there will be some consequences...

It is normal, but that's still a LOT of content to forget to purge. Rushed or not, you should be keeping better organization, especially if you're a company so obsessed about keeping secrets.

I'd like to know WHERE in the hell you get off assuming I DEMAND a rare dev to cough the ROM up. What I AM is completely SHOCKED someone HASN'T. There was a lot of hype built-up for that game, and hype continues to build as people realize what SFA almost was, and perhaps shoul've been all along. The fans were pissed, Most of Rare were generally unhappy, The story and Gameplay suffered. This is all motive for anyone and ANYONE who possibly can get their hands on a copy to do so, and perhaps leak/finish/whatever it. I'm sorry, but I find it hard to believe that absolutely NO one would've thought to do something like this. My one gripe if they did in fact pitch the "broken" dev ROM is that was completely and utterly a STUPID thing to do without trying to back-up and/or verify its contents, first. (Or at least, far as I'm aware, this was NOT done) Obviously anyone who might have a copy feels like they're walking on hot coals because of trademarks and copyrights. (although some of which are quite questionable, including the fact some have expired) Obviously, I have a dream, shared by the collective fanbase... I'm not going to, nor am I able to force someone to do something, but that is NO excuse for people to invent lame excuses to do literally NOTHING to actually help/inform when I asked for information. Likewise it stands to reason why tell anyone you may/may not have a lead if you're going to prevent anyone and EVERYONE from actually trying to get that information from you or your sources? There's a difference between protecting privacy and stone-walling.

That last one is a bit uncalled for. Although yes, generally textures are stored in some file on disk. Also, you seem to be mixing-up who wrote what, because I have yet to get into n64 programming, if ever. You also seem to forget how many tools are presently MIA or exclusive to certain operating systems.

Really not impressed...
But if all I do is rant, maybe i should just give-up trying to be what little help I can...

What a fine little nightmare....
So, the triple-posting wasn't exactly intentional, seriously have no idea how to multi-quote, which really was my objective there.

Some of my previous statements I would like to withdraw/replace, because they were somewhat inspired half on assumptions, and half on being fired-up, which I try to avoid, but I'm only human here. I do still question the disposal of a development cart that's alleged to not be working properly. Far as I know, nothing was done to verify it indeed was totally empty/damaged/decayed vs the fact dev carts do not run on certain hardware, or whatever the multiple cases may be where it's simply the game won't play/load.

As far as the re-building the original game, or so, trying, the harsh truth of that matter is we're never truly going to see whatever game the developers had intended or ultimately could have completed. Even with an official ROM dump, the ENTIRE storyline, etc... Unless somewhere hiding there is miraculously a "complete" build that surfaces. That probably isn't going to happen. The way I see it, ignoring copyright problems, one could try re-making DP referencing what information / media is out there already, and using/modifying the retail SFA assets. Just saying. I'm personally against this approach, at least not without making the effort to make the textures/models look MORE like the originals, but that's just my feeling. A better approach probably would be to gather suitable replacements/bases for certain models or textures from games that are already out there. For example, Conker's tail with re-texturing and maybe the tweaking of a vertex or two would be a good start on Krystal's tail. It's not strictly impossible to re-make the game with what's already out there. A "FULL" restoration is as far as we know, off the table, however. Perhaps I forgot to clarify that matter, I already know a LOT was lost/changed, and I certainly wouldn't expect at this point enough to re-build the old game actually being available to anyone here who should try it. None the less, there are some pretty early resources that have been discovered, and would be greatly beneficial. Also, we know at least a few things didn't change besides graphics upgrades and altered story if comparing the retail release with what was seen in the one hour gameplay video.

As for the "privacy!" thing:
I am fully aware about protecting privacy and keeping to non-disclosure agreements. I have had to do this many times myself. But, I do not just assume everyone doesn't want such information disclosed, or at least, I do take the time to back that up with THEIR say, not MINE. "I respect privacy is NOT an acceptable answer for withholding information". It actually makes me a fair bit suspicious, because another reason to say "Well, I won't share anything useful" is because there either is NOTHING to be shared, or such information is being hogged to yourself. I wasn't told they CAN'T share anything further, I was told that they WON'T or DO NOT WANT TO. Big difference. And whether or not this is right or wrong, in the real world, there are many times you cannot do this, and in the worse case, could be arrested. I didn't demand they release anything, nor am I going to attempt to force them, but the bottom line is, "I respect someone's privacy, and I will not bother asking THEM or my contact with them if I can share this information with you", simply is not, and never will be a valid response, unless the objective is to miss-lead others. If this is really how they feel, than to be blunt, some day they will learn that way of thinking won't work, and likely will get them into a lot of trouble. Thinking of this from a business perspective, if I learned an employee/colleague/friend was preventing ALL outside sources from contacting me without checking back with me, first, they may cease to be a friend/employee/colleague of mine, especially if it was taking from me business opportunities, or slowly causing me some form of highly expensive legal nightmare. Anyways, doesn't matter, I can't get them to change their mind, and I'm not going to bother fighting it. I merely said what I did before because I was dis-satisfied, and did at least want to tell people at least one of my futile attempts at finding information, regardless of from where, and lastly, if anyone has had a similar experience, and at least has verified those claims. There's nothing wrong with that, and it as no excuse for anyone to get nasty with me about it. Unless anyone has anything constructive to add here, I would prefer this topic NEVER be brought-up again. Another thing I regret saying that wasn't even MEANT to start an argument or get someone stirred-up...

Lastly, it is not ME learning programming for re-making DP. That is MrQuetch, who seems to have gone silent now. Secondly, there is seldom ANY excuse to use the r-word... of all the insults that is the lowest of the low, and should be used sparingly. Ideally, it probably shouldn't be used at all. I am all for stating your fullest and uncensored opinions, but that comes with a responsibility to in fact, not say certain things, because they are NOT welcome and do not add anything. I have both had these kinds of insults directed at me on multiple occasions, and witnessed people completely fall-apart because of them, or even heard the tales of what they do when they no longer can bear it. There's a fine line between stating your opinions and just being an ass. I am tired of just being some bystander and watching people get hurt, as well as tired of being a victim, myself... It amazes me how inconsiderate and rude people still can be of each other. This topic I would also prefer NOT brought-up here again. I didn't even WANT to bring it up, but I take issue with using the particularly aggressive words to tell someone off.

I suppose I'll add gilgamesh's discovery to my list of things, now. I'm hardly in the mood to continue right now, because I came here both to observe, and maybe contribute, get to know people, not start a damn flame-war. I hate confrontations... I've witnessed too many, I've participated in too many, and I'm tired of no matter where I go, what I do or say, how isolated something is from the usual causes of drama, somehow finding drama, or inadvertently causing it. For this, I am sorry, I just want to see either DP released, leaked, re-made, whatever... I have no intention/desire to force someone to do that. If my involvement here is going to do nothing but cause problems, I'll just quit being involved... I'd rather not see this thread locked, or the topic banned because it seems to be a magnet for drama, especially with people like me around.

I had more to say back from WAAAAAAY before this little incident occurred, but I'll save it for a future post and when I actually have enough energy to do so.

I've been meaning to write something like this for many months, but only now got around to it. Nobody has really asked about it in this thread, but if you want to know more about me, maybe you will find it interesting.

How my online appearance has changed over the years.

It is a little long.


It's long, but also quite informative and doesn't seem to have a lot of redundancy. I'd say it was a pretty interesting read, and well worth it.

There any plans for debugging / hacking / ripping&dumping types of features?

Just curious, obviously getting the thing to WORK is more of a priority right now.

Ah, an impossible question.
It might be less painless to not watch ANYTHING than to know I can ONLY watch ONE SINGLE SHOW, always wondering/hearing about everything else I'm missing. I think I'll go with "I'd never watch tv again"

Alright, firstly, I'm double-posting cuz the previous is WAAAAAAY too long to be tacking-on something new, and also much of it deviates from the original topic. (which is the other reason I don't really want to discuss those other things further...)

One other amendment to some of my previous statements, not that this was an offensive one, but it was a stupid/foolish one. Dumping from a legit DP N64 build might actually be somewhat difficult due to the arbitrary structure of the ROM data. However, I'd think there'd still be SOME constants, like offset tables and specific sequences of opcodes responsible for reading 'files' from the ROM data.

Now, as far as 3d animation, what I was going to say, specifically to MrQuetch is that usually in 3D, a system called skeletal animation is deployed. Matrices can only scale,skew,translate,and rotate geometry, and they affect the ENTIRE set of vertices for a given shape, be that a 3D model, or a 2D vector graphic. Skeletal animation adds a system of bones, or now 'joints' , which can either target the entire set of geometry, or only parts of it. Usually, it's the latter, but most 2d implementations are just over-glorified matrix transformations. So, for the typical 3d skeletal animation, your model is one whole mesh, and then the skeleton is made of the individual parts that move fairly independently. Vertices on the mesh are typically assigned in groups to certain bones, and in advanced cases have "weights" that dictate how much influence a given bone/joint can HAVE on a certain group of vertices. The advantages of this is you do not have the unsightly gaps caused by having individual pieces. However, it is also quite a fine pain to get set-up, and can be fairly resource intensive. But, the latter issue, there's really no excuse for, and the former is something that is strongly advised either to get used to, or find someone else who is to do that part. having disconnected geometry REALLY doesn't look good in organic characters/models, and I've seen or heard of multiple examples where this shows. However, understanding the matrix is still fundamental in even implementing skeletal animation systems, as you will be applying matrices to the bones/joints, and I'm assuming there still might be some matrices/vectors involved in manipulating the geometry, too. Honestly, I only can find documentation on how to use a pre-existing system, not build it from scratch... I do kindly advise you start by getting a solid idea of matrices, then building a skeleton (this part is relatively simple, assuming you understand how to use your matrices and such) , and THEN linking that skeleton to some geometry. Say you have a cube with multiple 'extra' vertices. Through a skeleton (or other forms of per-vertex manipulation, but they'd probably still involve combinations of transformation matrices and trignometry), you can turn that cube into, let's say THIS:

The other option would be 'render' individual frames to MASSIVE model archives, similar to how spritesheets would work, NOT recommended. I'm going to be honest, one reason I'm not CURRENTLY trying a DP re-make besides the effort, is because I REFUSE to make a half-assed attempt with the graphics, which I'm going to be honest, I'm not the BEST graphics artist out there. If I do it, especially in 3D, I don't want weird collision bugs, or bad-looking graphics, and with my present skill level, it's all I can deliver. That said, if you're still out there, or still working on this, keep these advices in mind. If you want to re-make the game, go for it. However, I strongly advise getting the right graphical tools/knowledge, or team members together for this, because I am going to take a risk here and practically guarantee you're opening yourself to a LOT of scrutiny from fans and haters alike, and you cannot afford to deliver a sub-par product in the end. I don't mean to sound mean, but they can, and likely will tear you apart if you screw-up. Don't let this stop you from trying, however, you think you can do it, then do it. I wish you the best of luck in your efforts, but just remember, making games is...quite the process, good developers and bad developers are both heavily criticized for every decision they make, and especially the quality of their product. Sorry if that sounds depressing... There's no way to say making games is all fun and games, it's hard-ass work, unless you're a mobile dev... (*cough* KING....... *cough*)

Did I mention I cannot usually avoid trying to rip from the games I play, for ..whatever reason ?
Part of it is probably that I like to experiment with ideas, and collect reference samples, etc...
Something I've been doing with zelda is getting into the barebone basics of 3D programming and re-creating tiny tidbits of stuff I find interesting, pretty much with intent of creating multiple variations of the same thing...

Some things I've re-created thus far:
Pressure Switch
Move-able Block (sorta, I only put a 'final' texture together, since the model is just a box...)
UV animation test using the Poisoned Swamp Water from MM
and I'm working on...

That's all, though, really not much to be said about it.
Something to note, though, I am generating the geometry and U,V coords on the fly, so everything I make is pretty easily subject to remixes. IDK if I'll look into any really advanced generation, though. Really, these are just for fun. Not making any games, not cloning them, just improving my programming skills when it comes to 3D graphics and/or animation. And ofc, experimenting for the sake of experimenting.

Wow...THAT sucks...

So, the past couple of days I've been working with my friend to reverse-engineer ANOTHER file format to rip sprites...

I thought I had found all I needed to know to read the data? oh, HELL NO...
raw 16bpp color data wasn't enough there's ALSO:
8bpp
6bpp
5bpp
3bpp
and they're all either INDEXED (well, fuck) , or grayscales that get colorized programmatically (double fuck)

Of these five formats, we've only got a tool so far that can read and extract 2 of the formats, naturally, those are the only two that don't need ...bit-shifting... to read...

all of the versions besides 16bit we're aiming to preview/extract as grayscale.

Ending tonight with "my head hurts from thinking at the lowest levels of raw data processing" and "fuck i hate 'specialized' bpp color/pixel formats..."

It was also a headache acting as observer/adviser explaining concepts that can be confusing as fuck to understand...

Hopefully tomorrow the parser for 6bpp can be finished, and then it *should* be fairly easy to create the parser for ever other version. THEN I just gotta find the color palettes, which are likely 24-bit RGB or 32-bit RGBA, and figure-out how to associate them with the sprites. FUN!

Other than that, I suppose I'm fine.

I don't mind graphics-related programming, until things like bitwise operators and converting across various formats come into play.

The alt attribute should be used to give a short description
of an image; longer descriptions should be given with the
longdesc attribute which takes a URL linked to the description.
These measures are needed for people using non-graphical browsers.

For further advice on how to make your pages accessible
see http://www.w3.org/WAI/GL.
You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier to maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

You are recommended to use CSS to control line wrapping.
Use "white-space: nowrap" to inhibit wrapping in place
of inserting <NOBR>...</NOBR> into the markup.
