How to extract? #1

Open ElleDiablo opened 1 year ago

ElleDiablo commented 1 year ago

Hello! I apologize if I sound like a noob, but I am entirely new to extracting game files. I'd like to know how this program works exactly? How can I access the character sprites? I have tried running the program in cmd and I even built the source code as well, however the .exe file just wont work even if I run it with cmd or as administrator. Additionally I was able to run it once before but it says the input file is incorrect. Pretty please may I have a step by step guide on how this works? I am extremely inlove with the style of the game so I really hope to replicate it.

Thank you! May I ask where I may find the asset sprites of the characters? I am looking for the walking sprites :>. I extracted .the gfx.g file from the common and it output folders of decks.hmg, when I try to extract these files >>EastwardExtractor.exe -i decks.hmg -o output, nothing happens and there is no output in the folder :<

hi @ob2code I wanted to ask you how where you able to run this, I tried with cmake but have been running into many issues,

@5atu Just download the release file, unzip and run, no need to build from source code with cmake.
