Editing previously created games

[Smiiithy]

  I'm just starting and as I want to get used to AGS, for my first game I just want to edit a previosuly created game. Can anyone tell me how to extract the game files out of the application to make it editable or where I can find some GOOD games that include the dta crm and sound files?

It's impossible I'm afraid, most game makers wouldn't want their stuff played around with so once compiled they are stored in a way they can't be extracted back into their original form.  Not even CJ can do it (apparently )

The demo game is open source, which means you have access to all the crm and sounds and scripts, that's on the main ags download page.

If it's just room graphics you want you could try instagame http://www.sylpher.com/ig/

Some people release the sources of their games, you can get the source of 'Exile' by JRP here: http://www.otropunto.com/jrp/ags/index.asp

And RickJ has some neat stuff here: http://www.art-heart-soul.com/blusoft/index.html
including The BlueGui, which can help you with learning about all possible gui's
