Topic: About the sprite.q3 file?

[Stormbringer]

Supposedly no one who is in a position to talk knows how to get into it. Well the patcher knows something. It Either changes parts of it or outright replaces it. If it edits it, then it could be used to break into it? Or at least the two .q3 files could be compared at the hex or binary level.regularly repeated segments might be spacers. Come on, someone has got to know something?

Thats what Ive been trying to find out too- must be a taboo or forbidden subject. Hmmm.

According to Taldren's technical reference manual (part of the model tools kit): "The game's user interface graphics are compiled into a file called sprites.q3; for several reasons, some legal and some practical, we can't give you a way to edit these."

So it seems indeed forbidden...
