The Leaf Forest Zone - backgrounds/scenes to make your own sprite comics backgrounds/scenes to make your own sprite comics (hoaxes, whatever.) Here, you'll find many scenes or backgrounds coming from various Mega Drive Sonic games (and Game Boy Advance too). I ripped them with DGen (I could as well have used Genecyst too) and Visual Boy Advance (for Sonic Advance 1 and 2).

Well, that's all about all these fabulous Sonic backgrounds. If you ever have backgrounds to give me, thank you for mailing me, Dioxaz, at this address: sonic-discovery@fr.st. Remember that they must be in full quality and with original emulated colors (please, do not use Gens to rip backgrounds, use DGen or Genecyst instead).

They are in better quality than those we find on DPI (lol mine are full quality 24-bit PNG images while DPI's ones are just crappy JPEG.) and will help you in realizing your own hoaxes or sprite comics. Note: Some of them had been originally ripped by Sqweeks (also, even if you already have the same ones, I recommend you downloading mines because your sprite comics will be visually more flattering and less heavy in file sizes;) ). More, these scenes are directly usable, unlike DPI's ones where it's necessary first to remove the DGen window, etc. This allow you of course to save your comics directly in 24-bit PNG format instead of those crappy GIF (uhh. Dithering, dithering, excessive dithering. Weird colors.

-- when badly used) and JPEG (arghhh, crappy quality!!! Precision loss!! Color sharpness completely destroyed!!! Sometimes huge file size!! -- because this format goes well with photos and detailed realistic images, but definitely not on low detailed images, even with a few visual effects on them and using a high quality rate). Hah, big lol; hope this is incrusted into your little brain once for all.

Note: if you want to use these images in MS Paint, then it will be necessary to convert them in BMP. To do this, after right-clicking on the desired image and after selecting 'save the image as' (the only method I know to download these images), select 'bitmap (*.bmp)' in the 'Type' field of the 'Save Image' of dialog box that appears (using MS Internet Explorer). Push then the 'Save' button of the dialog box (after having selected a path of course) and you will be able to open your image under MS Paint (because it does not recognize PNGs - at least versions prior to Windows XP). Second note: Another solution consists in downloading IrfanView. Eightball mjg twitter. Once the soft is installed on your PC, you'll be able to copy-paste between IrfanView and Paint, allowing you to open sprite sheets or backgrounds in PNG, and exporting them into MSPaint.

The contrary is also possible and you'll be able to export an image from Paint to paste it into IrfanView as well, and by the same occasion saving it in PNG format. Ideal for people who can't save their comics or sprite sheets in PNG:P.

(New section!). (10 backgrounds) (4 backgrounds) (14 backgrounds) (9 backgrounds including 2 from Training mode) (11 backgrounds) (1 background) (10 backgrounds) (13 backgrounds) (8 backgrounds) (81 backgrounds) Note: most backgrounds presented here have been ripped by Kekun (and I'm still thanking him;)) using the 'Map viewer' tool from Visual Boy Advance. They are easily recognizable as they are in their original integral resolution as they are loaded in memory, not as they are displayed on screen (each background layer is scaled to a resolution of 248 x 168 pixels on memory but only 240x160 pixels are displayed on screen) while Daniel Sidney's ones (and some of mine too) are in 240 x 160. Please take note of this;).
