Accessing Shadow the Hedgehog files

If you just want to examine the enemy models and stuff, you could emulate the game in Dolphin and use a printscreen-style ripping program. I've heard good things about GameAssassin, though I've never tried it myself.

 

You can use Dolphin cheats to unlock all the levels.
If you don't want to go that route, this program supposedly opens the .one files.

 

Not just supposedly, it does extract stuff from .ONE archives in Shadow the Hedgehog (among many others). From what I recall and read, though, the contents of .ONE files have a misleading file-extension. They're PRS-compressed files. To my knowledge, Nemesis' PRS decompression tool should still work for those. Textures are stored in TXD format, models in DFF format, using a variety of the Renderware engine (newer than the one used in Sonic Heroes but should still work with most Grand Theft Auto related tools).

 

I know, I only said supposedly because I myself haven't used it.

 

I just obtained Shadow for myself: I'll see if I can't get anything to work.
Also .dff files are a real bitch to find decent programs for. the best I could find was a Blender import plugin.

 

It might help if you said WHICH message it's looping?
That said, it might help to try to run the .bat-file in the program folder instead, which eases into the Java-version of the program.

 

Member Total made a program to view and extract models for the GCN version, shth_one.exe The thread can be found here He never released the program though so you'd have to ask him for it.

 

I might be able to modify my HeroesONE program for Shadow's ONE files, if they're similar enough to Heroes'.

 

Seems that way. the existing .one unpacker I have says it's corrupt.
although there is something cool I found looking inside my copy:

it's 5 KB though so I'm not sure anything's in there.

 

Having acquired a Shadow ONE file to look at, it's almost nothing like the Heroes ONE files. I don't think I'll be able to do much.

 

If you just want textures, that's already something Dolphin can do.
it's somewhere in the graphics options, I think.
when I have it at my disposal I'll give a more definite answer.

Edit: actually Main Memory what if it's just the difference between the Gamecube and PC .one files?

 

because I'm not bothered enough to do this myself.

 

Thanks for that, now HeroesONE should be compatible with Shadow's ONE files.
