Humongous Entertainment resource ripper

Post by Supper »

Download here (C++ source included)

This is a command-line utility I wrote that extracts most graphics and audio from SCUMM-based Humongous Entertainment games. It supplants my previous rippers to the extent that I figured it's worth starting a new topic. See the readme for a list of supported games and data types, but as far as I know it can decode every graphics and audio format (save MIDI) used in all HE games up to at least Backyard Basketball, as well as some miscellaneous things like Splat file metadata and TLKE subtitles.

I made this without reference to ScummVM's code or other external sources -- if I had, it would probably work a lot better! As it is, the code is rather clunky and cumbersome, and I expect I've made some mistaken assumptions about data formats, but for the most part the program does what it's supposed to. I hope someone finds some use for this.

Is there a way to compress the files back up and mod the game?
