SCI Resources
Data used by SCI is mainly stored in several types of resources.
SCI0 Resources
The resource types of SCI0 can be roughly grouped into four sets:
- VIEW - Graphics
- PICTURE - Graphics
- SCRIPT - Logic
- TEXT - (Text resources are series of ASCII strings)
- VOCAB - Vocab
- SOUND - Sound
- SCRIPT - Logic
- FONT - Graphics
- CURSOR - Graphics
- PATCH - Sound
During the game interpreter loads and unloads these resources in order game to function. These resources are stored within RESOURCE.00* FILES.
All SCI Resources
Additional resource types were added with later versions of the engine.
