vimg2 files by Bonboon228 at 5:30 PM EDT on August 26, 2016
So, I was using an nds rom viewer on my copy of Harry potter and the Order of the Phoenix and decided, hey, I want to rip the background art.

So, I looked for it, and saw a bunch of VIMG2 files.

Searching for programs to decipher this proved fruitless.

Anyone have an idea of what a VIMG2 file is?

Not if you don't upload at least one file and post it here.

Here is a link to my new google drive.

The folder titled "world" is every image file from the game.

Both the VIMG2 and VICB files work together to make the backgrounds. Some of the files have LZSS compression. If the file starts with 0x21436587, then strip the first 12 bytes and LZSS decompress it.

No clue on how the image is actually formed, though. Making consecutive edits in a VICB causes random blocks of the background to change in game.
