Hello everyone, I need help finding images that don't appear in the tim2view tool but I see in the vram/gpu viewer, I've checked the game iso several times with tim2viewbut I didn't find them, I would like to know how to find them in the game iso using vram /gpu viewer.

Very often games use their own image formats which are similar to TIM in nature but have totally different header and sometimes they use compression for them, more to that, some games use texture atlases for faster loading, so they just load entire texture pages at once including CLUTs packed in them instead of loading textures one by one. And if you don't have knowledge and experience in reverse engineering all this stuff then you're out of luck here.

Thank you for the information, I will research more about it.

Hello, I am part of the translation team for the game The Legend of Dragoon into Brazilian Portuguese. I managed to find the image file that I need to edit, I am researching the image file formats, but I don't know what this file type is. Can anyone help?

Apparently InfranView can open the .tim file, but it says it's "PlayStation (Recoil)". It looks like you edited it already though, but I think that may have been a 640x240 image, and you edited it in 640x480.

I took a screenshot, edited it in Photoshop and saved it in TIM format, but in the game, it is not in TIM format.

Hi! To figure out the custom graphic format in The Legend of Dragoon, check the file’s header with a hex editor like HxD. Tools like PSicture or Tile Molester might help, as they support many PS1 formats.

Hi! I tried both but I couldn't open the file. It seems that this file is proprietary.
