MtG Desktop Themes (Microprose) images - how to extract?
Posted: 27 Jul 2015, 19:30
Hi all.
I just found my old MtG Desktop Themes CD and decided to try ripping the images. Since the installer appears to be a 16-bit program, installing it didn't seem like a useful approach, but it's pretty obvious that the images are stored in files like "0017.art".
Do any of you have any idea what the format is? There is an accompanying A0017.art file which I think is a thumbnail images, and an 0017.tr ASCII file with some numbers.
(It's probably irrelevant because the images are not that going to be high quality by today's standards, it's just something I always wanted to do
