Can you send me a file for this game?


RE: Help With Ripping Sprites of "ARCANUM" - juliocpaes - 12-07-2017

So, I have two files named CD1 and CD2, and it's hard files ... 700 mB each

there is a tool for extraction ?


RE: Help With Ripping Sprites of "ARCANUM" - Cooper - 12-07-2017

If they're .bin files, I'd recommend 7zip or PowerISO.

Good, the programs I mentioned above should be able to open them.


RE: Help With Ripping Sprites of "ARCANUM" - juliocpaes - 12-07-2017

ook I successfully extracted the BIN files with POWER ISSO, but now how to do the sprites ripping?

DAT FILES ... ?


RE: Help With Ripping Sprites of "ARCANUM" - Cooper - 12-07-2017

Send one of the files you got from the bins over and I'll have a look. I recommend using mediafire for sharing.

Alright so I've looked up these file extensions on google and as it turns out, I've found this here website containing a bunch of tools including opening the .dat files.
According to it, the sprites should be .art files. Use the programs listed here and see how it goes from there.

I tried some (mainly in arcanun modding) but it did not work none of those, inclusive DATBUILDER TOOL.


RE: Help With Ripping Sprites of "ARCANUM" - Cooper - 12-08-2017

You sure you didn't use the Undat tool? Drag your dat files onto the .exe and it should extract them.

First, you need the dat extractor:
http://www.terra-arcanum.com/downloads/arcanum/tools/DATBuilder.zip
Unpack the files "arcanum 1.dat" and "arcanum 2.dat". These contain sprites. May take a little while on slow machines.
Next we need the "ArtView":
http://www.terra-arcanum.com/downloads/arcanum/tools/redviewer.rar
Open "ArtView" go to the art folder.
Example C:Games\Arcanum\DATBuilder\art\critter\dfm\dfmbnsad.art
On the left you can now choose the files of the animations. Walking, running, shooting and other animations.
In the middle you can choose every single sprit of the animation, if you only want to cut one sprit.
On the right, you can choose the palette at zero. Extract single or full file.
