EXTRA BG MAKER:Does anyone have this tool for Downlod?

[Anthony817]

If only atreyu187 was still here and had all of his old archives. That dude is one of my best friends in the community and he had archived literally everything on backup drives dating back to the beginning of the DC community. Unfortunately his drive he had archived everything on went kaput.

So now I am trying to build up my own archive similar to his old one and need to start saving all of the old hard to find tools too.

I will wait for Swat in your answer about the tool: http://www.dc-swat.ru/forum/thread-761- ... l#pid39148

Thanks!

I think you can use this to install adobe plugins working with gimp https://sourceforge.net/projects/pgei/

Check for my response here. I put some code to generate a GBIX / PVR file from RGB888 data and instructed on how to replace that data in an existing BG replacement VMS.

I also have these from wayback PVRTool Pack v1.0.rar if i dont have it i dont know who still does maybe you get lucky i have over 5 gig of dreamcast dev tools and i dont have the one you asked for sorry I allways used adobe since sega did for pvr

Can anyone make a simple tutorial with EXTRABG_TUT do not understand codes!

I only see ... letter and number in this text, I don't know which tool to use.
