Thanks anywayz but, someone posted something similar a few ago....lol Anyways about the PoR deal I just need the maps because they aren't widely available on the net. Also on a side note I could also use the stage maps for Contra Hard Corps on the genesis, if someone is experienced with ripping from the Genesis emulators...
Yeah it was the contra ones I think you asked about but my emulator won't run under win 8 my DS emulators do work but I can't view tiles to rip the stages I don't think the tile viewers for the DS work quite right and that may actually be the reason no one has ripped and posted the stages. I know smithy was working his balls off on some DS castlevania rips and if he wasn't able to get them then I doubt anyone could. I may have to hit him up about the stages and see if he made an attempt on them and what happened. He would surely have more info on it anyhow.
Contra I could rip if my emulator was working. I don't have my laptop at the moment either I loaned it out or I could have tried running it there and pulling stages. I know the tile viewer in that emulator was good.
But bottom line you need a tile viewer/editor to pull stages. Characters and objects seem to be a lot easier to grab. I actually pulled the statue by hammering on the screenshot button while approaching the statue. They aren't an actual breakable they crumble as you get near them but could also work as a breakable. The animation is pretty slow in the game though so I was able to capture each frame in a single attempt.
