I can only help you for the DDV files, you should be able to read them with this:

Sadly can't help you for the rest.

Thanks Xavier ...
If anyone knows tell me the other programmes it would be very grateful!
Thanks again to all!:D

Just thinking... wouldn't it be possible to easily get sprite rips (not perfect but good enough for comics, fangames, etc) by using these tools to replace the background with pure black, and printscreening or similar?

I think in this thread I've seen someone with a video in which RuptureFarms was more blue (kinda like Zulag 3, except that this was the first part of Zulag 1). How can that be done? I'm aware that some animations will still have the original background color, but it would be awesome having an entirely blue RuptureFarms or a Stockyards with pink stars...

Psound
 
I was using Psound on my ps1 games, and i tried it on the music file from the extracted level file off my ps1 version oddysee and i got a heap of sounds off it. Im not sure if it will work on the computer version, or exoddus.:)

i think pauls dead....

Anything I send to the email address he provided with his registration gets bounced back. It’s an MSN account, so he must not have accessed it in a long time. I don’t think we’re going to be seeing Paul in a long time: so would people please stop pestering me to give out his email address. It doesn’t work.

-_- quite disapointing, was looking forward to AE sprites, however, i must applaud Pauls work, hex Editing and working from memory Dump files is a very tedious and time consuming task, and i only know that too well

Hex Editing Exe, Little Help

I tried it on PC version and it doesn't find anything...

I have a couple of tips when hex editing Oddysee and Exoddus exe's. First :fuzmad:Do NOT create or delete extra spaces as it will ruin the exe. Second, there are only a number of things you can edit e.g. The help text, the Esc menu text and mix the sounds around. If you are editing the scrolling help text then here is a small hex list:

01 = (Up Arrow) | 02 = (Down Arrow) | 03 = (Left Arrow) | 04 = (Right Arrow) | 05 = Shift | 06 = Ctrl | 07 = Alt | 08 = Z | 09 = Space | 10 = 6 | 11 = 7 | 12 = 8 | 13 = 0 | 14 = Esc | 15 = X | 16 = Esc | 17 = Tab |

When you view the hex ASCII it will show up as a .
Sorry to go a bit off topic but I think that this will help some beginners a bit in this topic.

This thread should almost be stickied as a monument to Paul, and because it's so... Dedicated is the only word I can find for it...

Fuzzle Guy 12-01-2008 01:47 PM

What happened when Abe was born was that he used to cry. A lot.

lbyrd2 12-02-2008 07:44 PM

did any of the other workers cry too?

erfg1 12-03-2008 04:16 AM

Here's some other animations I pasted together. I tried to make them as centered as possible.

Almost certainly, but they're not important enough to mention :).

lbyrd2 12-04-2008 07:41 PM

yeah.

Rita the Greeter 01-25-2009 12:07 PM

Is there any way of extracting music from AE?

Wil 01-25-2009 01:28 PM

No way that’s known, but there is already an awesome rip of AE’s music.

Slig75 02-12-2009 12:11 PM

I'm only a begginer at this, so how do you edit the sounds in the level.

Chubfish 02-13-2009 09:04 AM

There really isn't a way of doing so, the best so far that i've done is switch sound files around from 2 different levels, which just screws the sounds up alot, making footsteps sound like gunshots and chanting sound like whistling among some of the things.

I have a video demonstrating it if you would like to see.
