[Ami]

Hi,

I've tried two methods:

#1 - SGrab/PPaint, result:



#2 - SP from WHDLoad, result: no file at all

If I remember right I used SGrab and the result looked better then your example. WinUAE should be an alternative.

Yes but I want to do it using real hardware (although I'm using emulator because my real Amiga needs repair).

I tried SGrab again and the result is that the colors of the upper part (Mentat, Options, Credits, Info text) are wrong. Everything else is perfect. So if you don`t care about the upper part.

You may try Hrtmon.

I remember I used to be sucessfull ripping pics from Dune II using Turboprint.

Dune 2 uses a custom Copper list for the buttons to have more palette depth. If you try to grab a more colorful screen it will be even worse!

[Ami]

Here's result from HRTmon, using this tutorial:



I wonder if it's possible to extract colors from copper list and use them to write proper palette?
