Shadoworlds Sprites - Another potential source

[Wolfstarr]

Hi All,

Been a while since last posted as had to put my own mod plans on hiatus because of about a million other things going on

I come across this little beauty on a random youtube video session and some of the sprite models look pretty good

I've spent a few hours seeing if there is an easy way to rip them but the amiga and dos format stuff looks a bit beyond my capability lol

Anyways thought I'd post to see if it tickles anyones interests.

Shadoworlds is a beautiful video game that sadly has pretty crappy gameplay. I woulto d be more interested in having openxcom being used to reconstruct Space Crusade

I can't find any resources from the game... Anyone has any?

The only thing I could find scorch was an online version of the game, dos version and amiga version.  Tried following the guide to rip amiga sprites from save states but I couldn't get it to work.  Tried various rippers for the dos one and still had no joy

Good luck for anyone who does take on the task!

If you are really interested in having the sprites for this game, I would recommend you guys fill a sprite request at the english amiga board here:

https://eab.abime.net/forumdisplay.php?s=ac58f904a6c72405e12f20769de597d1&f=64

They have a bunch of talented sprite rippers doing volunteer work. If you're lucky they might help you.

I disagree with that : "If you are really interested", invest a few hours and do the work.
The game is Atari/Amiga/DOS, so I suspect it was a 16-bit game ported to VGA afterwards. I don't know much about Atari, but Amiga means bitplane-based graphics, which are often easy to recognize and rip from the memory dumps.
You may need to create the palette, but from looking at a single screenshot it's quite easy, and in this case we're talking very few colors, 8 max.

Sidequests, can you precise which graphics you think would be nice ? I didn't find many videos, and only saw the player characters' sprites, a similar android, and a 'jackal-head man'.

I haven't ever seen this game. The title though reminds me of the vaguely 90's Fox Cartoon-like "Shadow Watch" turn-based tactical game. It was a little bit like XCOM but about anti-terror work with a squad of multi-national soldiers in fancy blue-palette bodyarmor. It had a very distinct cartoon/comic style with sharp contrasts between light and dark colors.

I bought it once at a thrift store but I lost it after I switched to an OS that wouldn't run it.
