You have to navigate through the C:\ prompt.
Open the C:\ going through the Start button, then to All Programs, then Accessories. The command prompt should be there.
First thing you'll probably see is Microsoft Information about the program then this:
C:\My Documents and Settings\Owner>
(quotes are not actually used)
You type in "cd.." to back up to C:\My Documents and Settings> if your ycompress is somewhere else.
Type in "cd " followed by the file you want to enter.
"C:\My Documents and Settings>cd this file"
This will allow this to happen:
"C:\My Documents and Settings\ this file>"
When you get to the place with ycompress, type this in to rip the gfx.
"C:\My Documents and Settings\Lunar Tools>ycompess.exe 0 [file name].smc AllGFX.bin"
The [file name] doesn't include the brackets, just the name before the .smc. Also, change the *.smc file to a name without spaces like yi.smc compared to yoshi's island.smc.
Look inside the file that has ycompress and the AllGFX.bin file should be there with the ripped gfx. |

I have used lunar compress and Ycompress, but at the end appears a message that says :"Hit any key or click on the screen to exit". |

I have the decrompessed GFX from YI, if anyone wants them, I have them on my site.

I can't beleve a YI graphics extraction tool was released at the same time I was working on YI reverse engineering, and I didn't learn of it for three months. |

How? Didn't cg-games like... explode or something? |

Open up a Command Prompt (the C:\ symbol) and navigate towards the folder containing both the yoshi's island rom and ycompress.exe. Type ycompress.exe to find out the next instructions then follow them. Open up the *.bin file that is produced by following the directions and edit the sprite in a tile layer.
Or whatever other method you find to open it using a command prompt.
*I've already posted this at zophar's, Dan and the 9th Sage added the bit of other ways to get it using a command prompt though*
_EDIT_
Forgot to add where to get ycompress from: http://www.zophar.net/utilities/sneslevel.html |

And no, Eggvine does not support any type of graphics... not editing or decompressing... |

Here.
I doubt you'll know how to use it right now, but I'll make it accesseble to anyone who wants it.
This RAR includes Lunar Address, Lunar Compress, and Lunar Expand.

Fu made a program to de-/recompress the GFX in YI. I belive that it can be found on Zophar. |

I think Lunar Compress has that ability, but I think Fu's site is down, so I don't know where else you can get it.
FYI: This thread will probably be moved to a different forum where you'll probably get more help. |

*cough* you mostly can't. It's graphics are compressed. Does EggVine have a graphics decompression routine? *has never used it*
So yeah, you'll have to make them yourself if you want to use them. |

Hello Everyone
I was wondering how I might go about extracting the graphics from SMW2.
Thanks in advance! |
