jPSXdec – Preview, extract, replace or convert game resources of PSX CD ROM

Many of the original soundtracks and animations of PlayStation 1 are so well made that some independent game developers may want to extract them for personal use. I'm afraid, this time, PSX Multi Converter can not help you at all. Because it can scan almost nothing for no matter what type of game ROM files (except the CD ROM disc in your CD drive, I guess). And, we are able to use Cube Media Player to extract the audios and videos out, but it does not provide support to images. Even worse, for some PSone games, it can only extract the XA audio part of the dialogues of characters and the opening animations, you can't get the BGM in each stage.

[v7.0, v4.4] TexturePacker – Create sprite sheets for your games or websites

Program & Develop [ Mac Software ]

Making multiple small images spliced into a large one (sprites sheet), for game development, this can save the storage space and loaded memory that texture images require in game; for web design, this (CSS sprites) can greatly reduce the images loading frequency and time, so as to make web pages load faster. If you want to use Photoshop to do this, that's too stupid and inefficient. Or if you gave Zwoptex up, then it's time to turn to this TexturePacker from Germany.

[v1.97] Start10 – First alternative app of Windows 10 Start Menu

Auxiliary & Enhance

Windows 10 tried to partly restore the classic start button & menu, even increased semitransparent effect for the start menu, but its usage is still not convenient enough. Especially on the fluency of menu operation, its overall performance lags far behind the classic start menu of Windows XP/7. And in fact, this is definitely not caused by users' habit, but the failure on design (Microsoft blindly pursues avant-garde design while ignores one fact/reality - The vast majority of users is using Windows 10 on a PC, rather than a tablet with touchscreen.

iFun Video Converter – Convert any 2D video to 3D VR format with one-click

Multimedia

After the birth of 3D glasses, the source of 3D video became a vital problem. Therefore, we could find software everywhere that can help convert the common 2D video into 3D format (although the conversion results were somewhat disappointing). Similarly, the appearance of VR devices is also facing the same problem. That means we need to use specific tools to solve the problem of VR-3D video source. Now, among all VR-3D video converters, I think iFun Video Converter is an outstanding one, which leaves all competitors behind (one of the losers is: Wondershare's Video Converter Ultimate).
