Ripped graphics (files)

Fed4.pic

Main screen

Main screen graphic, including the curtains which open and close during the loading screen. The tradition of naming graphics files “fed” goes back to Captive; i.e. see Disk Directory at the Ultimate Captive Guide.

Fed5.pic

Main screen UI

Spritesheet for the main screen UI graphics, plus a monster. Also includes two buffer areas for internal game use: a 64 x 55 scroll buffer, and an 80 x 76 buffer for explosions, etc. 80 x 76 is the height of the explosion graphic; see Ripped graphics (internal). One monster is also here.

Fed8.pic

Weapons and items

Spritesheet for weapons, items, and talking with certain monsters.

KMAln-A.pic

Monster spritesheet

Certain monsters only have half of their sprite drawn, to save space. The other half of the face is drawn flipped from the sprite. A complaint about the skull is that it always appears to be facing forward, which makes it hard to use the strategy of sneaking around the back.

KMShop-A.pic

World graphics

World graphics, including grass, red flowers, minecart, trees, water. No idea why it’s called “Shop”.
