Quote from Metroid Menace:

It's a little difficult to get rips in game unless you have a lot of time to spend meddling with the uncooperative emulators...
Unless you meant simply rips in general. I have lots of those.

Sure. I'd love to see what some of the enemies or bosses look like up close.

..A few random things. It's better if I have a specific direction for screen taking. Oh and of course, they look much better in motion because of all the fancy texture-coord anims. I can also do some of the rooms and read a few of the script/trigger things which is stored after the geometry. For example, you can see the door, door shield, and missile CMDLs in this room file:

Is it just me or does this game look way better up close?

Those are awesome. What does, say Mogenar or Ridley look like? Also what software are you using to rip these?

Ridley's wings are in a separate CMDL, so they do not show up in that screen. I used Mogenar's diorama because his original file displays a little glitchy.

The software I use is a program I wrote that reads various resources from the Prime games as well as a bit of Brawl. Obviously, there's no documentation for these file types, so it's taken a while to decipher what everything in them means but not everything has been properly translated yet.
