Title: obtaining the .spr & .bmp files
Post by: Neonseraphim on October 13, 2014, 11:23:58 am
      Hello, I'm new here seeking some guidance.  I will like to export the sprites from psp WOTL so I can edit them to my own liking and add them later as special characters and maybe then do a quest for them if I get that far.  However I'm encountering a problem when following directions here.  When I used powerISO and CDmage all I get is the SQ-->PSP_GAME --->SYSDIR, USRDIR.  inside SYSDIR---> UPDATE, BOOT.BIN, EBOOT.BIN.  Inside UPDATE ---> DATA.BIN, EBOOT.BIn, PARAM.SFO.  Inside USRDIR---->movie----->all the movie files.  So I'm under the impression that there is a Battle folder and that it contains the SPR files for me to extract and mod and then insert back in, however this is not the case, I can't find them :(.  Any help?

Extract fftpack.bin (in USRDIR), then extract it again with FFTPatcher. Choose where to extract, then everything should be there. This should be it, just did this myself to make sure I gave you the right directions. Also, this sticky should help for further things related to changing WotL sprites

For WotL you should be using UMDGen, not CDMage

alright I'm getting it, however when I try to extract the fftpack.bin using fftpatcher I get the following error message:  Could not extract file.  Make sure you choose the correct file and that there is enough room in the destination directory, any ideas?  I have 1.82TB of free space I doubt that is the issue.  and the funny thing is that it does extracts so I can mess with files but may not be a complete extract.
