The basics of ripping NES Sprites. . How do I rip my own sprites? That depends on how you want to go about ripping. Of course the first thing you need to do is pick a game. After that, you can check if we have a tutorial written for that console specifically, and if we don't, you can look into using a screen capturing style technique to rip your game. Nov 24, 2013 I see A LOT of potential avatars from the game sprites, mainly victory and intro animations. However, I am having a lot of problems trying to figure out how to rip the sprites. Is there a way to do it? Google didn't help much. Thanks in advance.

Soundbox

Soundbox is a standalone application for editing SCI0 sound resources. It can convert format 0 and format 1 MIDI files and allows managing resource specific features like sound cues.

  Quickstart:

  Most will only need Soundbox to import MIDI files into their SCI0 games.

  1. Use format 0 or format 1 standard MIDI files. Format 2 files are not supported.
  2. Leave channel 16 empty. Don't try to play music on it.
  3. Don't rely on embedded sysex messages. They will be removed during import.
  4. Break large, long, heavily layered works into smaller pieces. An individual sound resource should not be larger than 64k. If necessary, a number of resources can be played one after the other.
  5. To convert the MIDI file, choose File -> Import MIDI from the menu.
  6. To save the imported resource, use File -> Save As.
  7. To play imported MIDI resources in Sierra's DOS interpreters, get the SCI0 MPU MIDI sound driver.
