Random Talking Bush's Submissions

I've been interested in ripping from Dreamcast, but I can't even get the emulator to work properly. Think it's my Windows 7...
I might dual boot XP with it, so I can.

It'd be cool if you could do up a quick tutorial on dumping?

Ah, my younger brother has a computer with Windows 7, so I can see if I can get the emulator running on it.

Anyway, as for dumping the memory... What I use is ProcessMemoryDumper. All you have to do is start up PMD, click on the emulator/PC game in the processes list, and then "Dump Process". After a few seconds, it puts a *.DMP file in the same folder, with the name of the process. Then, like I said, you open up the memory dump in TiledGGD and locate the graphics. (Most of the graphics I've ripped were 32bpp, linear, with the alpha location at the end, but they could vary.)

I've been able to get a lot of graphics from PC games that way (most of the PC games I've ripped from was with the help of that program). However, a few of the PC games I tried didn't work with this method, like BattleNyo, for example, but it has worked with every other game I've tried.
