How do i open Sprite file of other game?

Post by accucore12 » May 19th, 2012, 8:02 pm

I have tried to do a search online and it seems that .spr file extension does not really have a standard editor to open it.It seems that various game has different way of storing spr files?

I have tried to open it in various image editor such as photoshop, paint.net but cant seem to open it.

Uploaded a copy of the .spr file.Hope someone can help me with this. Thanks
(i have rename it to .txt since spr files are not allowed to be uploaded, change it to .spr before opening)

If it's not some kind of standard file format, then you're going to havfe to reverse engineer it. Since it's a binary file this could be quite difficult. You'll need a hex editor and it may help to write some tools to aid in the process. It looks as though the image data is uncompressed, so one approach could by trying different offsets/pitches until you get a decipherable image and then working from there. Another option would be to disassemple/decompile the client and see how it accesses the file.

Either way, I do not envy you bro. :P
