The sequal to vba ripper, now working on the almost latest copy of VBA-M fixes old bugs, graphics now both work in direct3d as well as opengl.
Use is rather quite complicated, get the to section of the game you want to rip from, what gets ripped depends on what options you choose, by default everything surrounded by a green box will be ripped as one.
