    Default Looking for a good program to rip SNES sprites

    Like the title says, I'm looking for a program that can rip SNES sprites. I did a quick Google search and didn't get too much help. Anyone have any recommendations?

    All I can suggest for that would be disabling layers in ZSNES. At least there's a decent manual method. However, i would also request something to do similar work with arcade/mame stuff. I'd love to get some of those big arcade sprites out of there...

    I use Paint Shop Pro. Slow, but effective.

    I used Tile Molester to get the pics of Bang that you can see to the left of this message. It's written in Java, and it can use data files from just about any system you can name. As the name implies, it is a tile editor rather than a sprite editor, and trying to get actual sprites might take a bit of work, but there probably aren't any easier ways. Oh, and if the ROM you're using has compressed graphics, good luck to you.

    There are some other utilities listed at Zophar's. Maybe Naga or SpriteView would do the trick.
