First thing, download PCSX2 emulator here.
I've been using this version:
Note these versions are not final so there may be some bugs but I have yet to encounter any problems. If you need help, they have a discord channel that can be found on their site here.
Now that you have it up and running, go to Settings > Interface > Graphics > Advanced Tab > and check the Dump Textures box.
As you play the game, any sprites or textures the game has to load on screen will be dumped. They will appear in the folder where you unzipped the emulator files, in the textures folder specifically.
The final thing worth noting is that the sprites will appear too light/transparent. This is normal. The devs are aware of this and will let you know on Discord the specifics of why this happens.
The good news is: there is a quick and easy fix. Simply load the sheet in Photoshop and make sure the layer is selected. Now just duplicate the layer 5 or 6 times and the transparency will disappear. The shortcut for this is Ctrl + J.
And there you go! Easy peasy!
Shame that all i have is 32-bit computer right now.
