This is not a tip or trick per se, but the International forum doesn't have a "General" area or otherwise appropriate area for this. I've been exploring the files on my own, since I can't find anyone else who has made graphic mods for this game, but I'm limited by a certain file format. First, see what I've done so far:
An example of the wife portrait replacement, which I think is more pleasing to the eye.
A replacement of the money lender.
I'm also working on a new version of the sea map.
The problem is that the original graphics are packaged inconsistently. Some of the animated graphics are simply a series of BMPs, and I can edit those fine (the priest, the ship captain, etc). But others are an unknown format called .aim, and I can't find any way to open or extract these files, which I'm sure is just a container for a simple series of images like what's used elsewhere.
So, has anyone else done anything about this, or knows how to handle this kind of file?
