Lol guys maybe it seens to be a stupid question, but after playing on those awsome DocRoc's mario maps, I noticed that it has exactly replicas of N64 Mario textures, how do I can dump it from an emulator?. I always wanted to remake some Perfect Dark levels... Thanks.

He probably just remade them... or else downloaded the ROM and extracted the textures somehow. There's probably an N64 ROM editor off in some dark corner of the interwebs. To actually extract stuff from the cartridges though, you'd probably need something along the lines of this:

Thanks Srry, I think that is the way people extract roms from catridges, So maybe there's an way to dump them stuff off. I tried DXRipper but I can't get that shit to work in any game. Also I found this mod on ModDb - http://www.moddb.com/mods/4026/perfect-dark/images/23425/dd-shotgun-ftw#imagebox
The image description says: "this is a direct rip of the dataDyne shotteh. being straight from the n64 game its a bit rough, but you just gotta love it!"
WTF?. Also there's a bunch of N64 models on Facepunch. I'm searching for hours N64 dumpers, it seens to be a plugin on some N64 emulator installing you can actually dump models, textures and stuff... I downloaded the plugins and anything works... Shit.

TheGrimReafer, that's what I said...

Ag3nt-X, I've been looking into this a lot too, and I ran across some programs that'll extract graphics from ROM files, but I'm having a lot of trouble getting any of it to work. It's mostly a bunch of old programs you have to run through DOS, and I'm really not proficient in that area at all.

Check this out.

I know the upcoming version of Project 64 will have a texture dump feature.

Strictly speaking, most of the N64 textures look like shit: they're easily recreatable (is that even a word) in Photoshop.

Especially the Mario 64 textures...they just look like shit. I mean, I can sort of understand if you're trying to extract Zelda textures or something, but Mario 64 is practically flat-shaded.

It is. Iirc, Mario is just goraud shaded, he has no actual textures.

I'm looking for Perfect Dark textures... No I don't want Mario ones, but it looked awsome on DocRoc's maps.

Edit: Just found this -> http://forums.ngemu.com/n64-screenshots/90474-perfect-dark-texture-pack.html
Lol, he changed the textures. Wondering how the fuck he opened the rom to edit those.

Edit 2: OMG I found a Perfect Dark Rom editor, and when I opened the textures, WTF??!!!. Lol PD's textures got uber low-res textures, the best I'll get is 64x64 pixels. But well, I can remake those with ease on a better resolution, I'll continue my work from here.
For who want here's the link. Btw, I could rip only the textures, dunno about the models.

Heheh, what'd you expect? By the way, that guy probably just remade all those textures from scratch. I doubt he'd have extracted them.
