    Hello fellow Gaslampers!

    I was browsing through the game files, and I noticed that all the animations seem to be saved as .SPR files, which are impervious to all my image editors attempts to load them. I've seen this, which as far as I can tell, just converts them all to strings of pngs. Does anyone know of another way to edit/view them? Or perhaps the program that the Founding Fathers used to create them?

    Thanks

    Convertsprites is all there is - SPR files were created before I was around, and as far as I'm aware it's not even possible to acquire the program that made them anymore. This is one of the major reasons all the post-1.0 dredmor sprites are in PNG format instead.

    Is there something specifically you're trying to do?

    You'll need .net framework installed, but this is prepackaged with most of the newer versions of Windows (it should only be a problem if you're using xp)
