Sprite Format Research

[maver1k_XVII]

I've been thinking about creating a thread like this for a while and now I finally decided to do it. The point of this thread is to collect the information about sprite formats of various games, ways of converting or ripping them and any info about the formats that are impossible to convert or rip as of now.
Here's what I have so far:

3DO

Here you can find a number of tools: http://altmer.arts-union.ru/3DO/3do_utils.htm
unCD-ROM v1.2 will allow you to extract 3DO roms,
RIPto2048 will allow you to convert roms, unextractable with unCD-ROM by defaut, to extractable format
3DOResExplorer will allow you to view images and convert them to .bmp format, though isn't finished and will probably never be. Fortunately the source code is available to download so it may give some info about the 3DO file formats.
Also here is a Noesis plugin that I made: 3DO_CCD_texture_dumper
It allows you to rip .cel images, viewable by 3DOResExplorer, from various archives similar to how Gitmo works. Just open the plugin in a text editor like notepad and replace ".pak" in the line handle = noesis.register("Dump 3DO CCD images", ".pak") with the format you want to rip sprites from and open the file in noesis. It is not finished and will probably be updated later. Also for some reason it won't work correctly unless you reload plugins after every extraction and unfortunately I don't know what's causing it.
Game specific info:

Idol Janshi Suchie-Pai Special

The images are viewable using 3DOResExplorer by default. Some images seem to be incorrect.

Super Street Fighter II Turbo

Character sprites and stages are in custom format, but some sprites are .cel and rippable with 3DO_CCD_texture_dumper. Examples:

Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon S

You can get the sprites with my 3DO_CCD_texture_dumper plugin. I've already submitted a few to the spriters-resource.

Wolfenstein 3D

A pair of images is .cel, but the rest are kept in archives of unknown format.
I found some info about a similar format here, but upon closer look it seems that apart from the first 4 bytes (BRGR) they don't have much in common.

Yu Yu Hakusho

You can rip the sprites from .ANIM archives with my 3DO_CCD_texture_dumper plugin. I've already submitted a few to the spriters-resource.

Playsatation 2

TIM2 (.tm2) format is commonly used for sprites and textures in PS2 games. Unfortunately, just like with the Dreamcast's .PVR, I've never seen a list of games using this format. I only know that Final Fantasy XII and Ikki Tousen: Shining Dragon use it for sure. Apparently there is also a TIM3 format, but I've never encountered it myself.
Here is a simple Noesis plugin I made to extract .tm2 files from various archives: TIM2_dumper
It works similar to the 3DO_CCD_texture_dumper, except you don't need to reload plugins every time, so please refer to 3DO section for information on how to use it.

Dreamcast

Noesis supports a number of standart Dreamcast image formats (.PVR, .PVM, maybe more). From what I've seen so far the .PVR format is very common, in fact every Dreamcast game aparently has at least one .PVR image (disk cover). It is possible that many games store sprites entirely in .PVR but unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a list of them yet.
Game specific info:

Love Hina: Smile Again and Love Hina: Totsuzen no Engage Happening

Both games store images in .BIN files, some of which are combined in .PAC files. Here is a Noesis plugin to view .PAC's (made by MrAdults, originally posted there) and here is my edit of it to view .BIN images.

Taisen Net Gimmick: Capcom & Psikyo All Stars

All images are .PVR 's and viewable with Noesis.

Quiz: Ah! My Goddess

This one is a mystery to me. Most of the data is kept in .BIN files, but the structure is completely different from those, found in Love Hina games.

Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike

The character and stages are stored in some sort of archives. Can't tell much more yet.

The list will be updated with info about other games and consoles when I'll have more time. If you have any info that can be added here, post it or send me a PM so I could add it to the list when I'll have a chance.
