Snowy the Bear .ARF file. - OS-PRIME - 05-22-2015

Yet again i want some sprites from obscure games.
Snowy has a really complex looking encrypted file format. Looking through it in blender show absolutely nothing salvageable, not even a bit of text spelling anything. Granted it is an archive of everything in the game bu, i only want the games bosses sprites and some level tiles.
Also the .zip is 8 MB but the file itself is a good 70MB.

It's not encrypted.

It looks like you can actually see all the graphics in TiledGGD.

I don't know the colors or anything, but they all seem to be 16bpp.
There does seem be be some strange something with the byte order. I'll look into that later if you haven't figured it out yet.

Interesting.
Still, when i try and use the program you used it turns into this mess of pixels. Are they any specific ways you set the program up?
Also i have no idea where the games sounds are.
