NDS Model Ripping Tutorial

Now if only I could get xoreos-tools and xoreos to compile so that I could use it, the current guide on the wiki seems to complex for me and I have tried to use it many times and keep ending up not able to do it

Yes, compiling xoreos is a bit complicated, especially on Windows where you have to manually grab all the libraries we depend on. xoreos-tools needs less, so it's a bit easier. Still, a somewhat daring tasks for some people.

I've been thinking about providing packages with precompiled libraries for different toolchains (MinGW, and several versions of MSVC, each both 32- and 64-bit), basically everything a developer would need to start hacking on xoreos. I need a Windows developer person to set it up and maintain it, though.

In the mean-time, as long as you only need to use xoreos or the xoreos-tools, we do have pre-compiled packages of xoreos and xoreos-tools from the last release earlier this year here:

https://github.com/xoreos/xoreos/releases/tag/v0.0.3
https://github.com/xoreos/xoreos-tools/r...tag/v0.0.3

As you can see, there's GNU/Linux, Mac OS X and Windows binaries, so you should be set. Unless, of course, you run a different operating system, say FreeBSD.

There has been a few changes since the 0.0.3 release, but I don't think any of them should matter for your use-case. I plan to do a 0.0.4 release some time in January, though.
