Know anything about the original engine?

[a2937]

I`ve been looking through the directory and the resources available on the internet, but I still do not know a whole lot about the engine. Obviously the game was isometric and used sprites for major stuff. I cannot make heads or tales of viewing the map files that have an edg extension. The int scripts have to have a simpler form than the compiled gobbledygook I see in Notepad++.  The sound is relatively simple to make heads or tales of. I don`t get why there are numbers listed in the msg files: is it some sort of array thing index?

Thanks. Hopefully someone can satisfy my curiosity.

Questions best asked over on No Mutants Allowed.

Also the game isn't isometric, it's a 60 degree view because it uses hexagon system.

Most people call those type games Isometric even if they're not TECHNICALLY isometric. Who the hell knows the difference between isometric, orthographic, etc?

Lots of people do, ignorance is not an excuse.
