WinRAR can portion the whole package to smaller sizes.Unfortunately K'aeloree has not responded to my PM and I have nowhere else to upload a file of that size... If worse comes to worse, I guess I'll try to upload them here one at a time.

Just pack it with WinRAR and upload the smaller files one at a time. Yeah, use the "Zip100: 98078kb" = 100MB's one on the "Split to volumes, bytes" drop down menu...

I think it is important to use some discretion, and if the owner of the copyrighted material asks for it to be taken down then it should be, but in general I think it is OK. Cuv, for instance has had ports of the PST animations uploaded to the forum as a modding resource since at least as far back as 2007.Is it against forum rules to include stuff extracted for other games, like copyrighted stuff? I noticed some D2 animations in Infinity. For example, I'm working on TOEE backgrounds, if I put them up as modders resource, will they be taken down?

Hi everyone,
Speaking D2, Eimernase from Phrozenkeep/Diablo Mod Community have make some POR Map rips too,
Huh..i didnt knew that this can also usefull for other game modders..nice to see
I extracted all maptiles, but build only the big mainly townmap...that was painfull enough:P
There is a very good extracting tool named as Ravioli Game Tools they can easy extract all background images from the game, and also from many other games.
To bad, i never found a way to extract the animations from Pool of Radiance 2:(

Ok folks, that's kind of stupid because I've used to hold, even share archive of Sam's maps, but that was 2 harddrives ago and I just noticed I don't have it anymore. Anybody had it around and willing to hop back on that old torrent or share it some other way? Would be really appreciated

In case somebody is still interested in this, I've created a Java command line application which allows you to extract the maps from a Pool of Radiance: Ruins of Myth Drannor installation directly. It is based off the C source code posted here in this thread.
For those curios, my application does fix the swapped red/blue channels of the images (that's why all the images shown here have a blue tint, the red and blue channels are swapped, the images are stored as RGB but the engine seems to use BGR). So the resulting image look like they do in-game. It also allows to stitch together most maps so that you don't have to do it. To run it, you can simply grab the jar from the repository and run that.
For example, if you want to extract a single map-tile (a single MCZ file) you can simply run:
java -jar por-romd-map-extractor.jar "/path/to/por-romd/data/MCZ/twr101.mcz"
And the resulting JPEG will be put into the current working directory. If you want to extract a whole map, for example the overworld map of Myth Drannor, you have to provide the path to the MCZ directory of the PoR:RoMD installation and the map name:
java -jar por-romd-map-extractor.jar "/path/to/por-romd/data/MCZ/" dran
The resulting image is quite large (~23000x11000 pixels), though. Many maps can be extracted like that, for example dran, nr_shrine and so forth. Most dungeons are currently mangled, though, as they do not place their tiles next to each other, but instead have "holes" and reuse some tiles of other maps.
Any comments or suggestions are welcome.

For those interested, I've managed to find the correct files to extract the whole maps in one go. So the the latest version of my tool allows you extract all maps exactly as you see them in the game (minus the applied effects and 3D objects, of course).
Extracting a map would be as easy as:
java -jar por-romd-map-extractor.jar "/path/to/por-romd/data/WMD/drannor.wmd"
That will place the image in the current directory. Note that some maps (like "drannor") are large.
I've also written a short article on how to read the needed files.

This is pretty amazing, I am wondering have you figured out a way to get the 3d objects extracted?
