Is there any way to batch extract NCGR (DS Graphics) to PNG? - larsenv - 12-18-2015

As the title suggests, I was wondering if I could take Nintendo DS NCGR Graphics and with the NCLR Palettes convert them into PNG? Using Tinke manually is tedious.

Thanks.

I'd also be interested in this.

I thought about making a batch conversion for these formats once before, but I don't exactly remember the problem I encountered.
I think it was something to do with NCGR being a cell format. You would need the map file (NSCR) or (NANR) to build the sprites from the cells.

Of course, background stuff probably wouldn't need it, but it's the inconstancy that caused problems and makes the whole process not worth it.

Basically, tinke is probably the best way to rip these kinds of graphics.

Thanks, I already use Tinke.

Isn't there a Hotkey to extract?

I'd imagine extracting all of the files and using OilOfVitriol would be quicker?

Not unless there's something else that can extract the files; you can't batch extract with Tinke either, and the batch Export function causes the program to crash.

DSLazy? Tinke batch extract always worked for me...

This is what I get when I try to do batch export.

Where can you get OilOfVitriol exactly?
