Graphics of units/structures in D2K

[stefanhendriks]

I have already figured out a way to unpack graphics (ie, tiles of sand, etc) from the game. But I cant seem to get all units/buildings. Are they hidden somewhere else? Or is it in the R16 files which cannot be read? :(

You found a way to unpack the R8 files ?

[stefanhendriks]

Yeah, I have found a tool for that already. Some russian thing. It works fine. I have unpacked sand tiles already.

Then provide the link to this program.

Can this program that you have found add new files to the R8 ?

Then provide the link to this program.

I will pretend that you are asking this nicely...

Here is the link: http://www.fundynamic.com/downloads/Dune2K_R8.zip

Well, if you know what the GUI exactly does i think you could. Although I haven't tried it myself.

Thanks for the link  ;D

Where is the .pal file ?

[stefanhendriks]

What do you mean? I just used the EXE file to unpack R8 files (havent seen a PAL file).

[SCX]

The extract pictures are black. The program wants .pal files to decode the pictures.

[stefanhendriks]

I figured there was a Dune2K.pal file somewhere. I have added it to the zip file. Re-download the program and you're all set. If not, let me know.

It works now.

Huh, 800 tiles just for 1.  :O

In this program you can raplase any image, exept image of damaged buildings, because when you replase it and save new DATA.R8 file - the game is crush. But with other image (units, not damaged buildings images) the game works cool.
