In what format? Anyhow, do this yourself... use datmanl to extract them and then whatever converter/viewer you want to see them and work with them...

Which sprites?

The only sprites you can really convert are the item FRMs... all the chracters in FO1/2 have 6 sides (because of the hex), while the ones in FO:T have 8 sides (the square + diagonals)... We could have made it look funny by using the 6 sides (ie, the angle of the diagonals on the hex aren't 45deg, but there's still the "up" and "down" frames missing...

And.. There's not the same number of frames as there are for things in FOT, so the animation would look awkward side by side with the FOT sprites. I'm pretty sure you'd also have to scale the FO/FO2 sprites a bit to make them the same dimensions as a FOT sprite as well.

Red's got the biggest problem nailed though, you're missing two directions of movement in the Fallout sprites that FOT has. There's a reason no one's done this over the passed 1.33 years, you know. :)

I think he's just looking for the weapon inventory sprites which Domin has created. I've got a couple but probably not the full catalogue. I thought I had posted the link to them, I'll check.

Here it is:

yeah, the sprites are slightly smaller, as for the timing, this could be resolved by specifying a proper "Step" value and/or having the dequence point to the same frame several times.

Although that'd look ass :)

At one point I got a file expander from what i think was this site... it allowed me to expand all the Fallout 2 files (or was it fallout 1, long time ago and my memory is bad) so that i could open and view them with other proggies. The question is, does this utility still exist? I can't seem to find any refrences to it anywhere... how could I expand the Fallout 2 dat files so i can get into them and snag some sprites (guns and such)... i know theres a dedicated program to do that but......
anyway, if anyone has some clues i'd be really helpful
(already posted this in FO2, but i figured it should be here too...)
