ESPN Extreme Games

Each course (lake tahoe, utah, cashcourse, ...) is in a separate folder.

• CASH = Cash Course
• FRISCO = San Francisco
• ROME = Italy
• SAM = South America
• TAHOE = Lake Tahoe
• UTAH = Utah

Here is a brief description of the files inside these folders :

• *.CLN contain the level himself ( road curve + objects position on the road ?)

• *.BIT contains all textures used in the level (player sprites and HUD is encoded separately). The textures are encoded in 8-bit indexed (256 colors) uncompressed format.

• *.FLT contains palettes used for displaying player sprites. every file is 16K. it seems it is use to map player sprites color indexes to palette used in level.

• ENDXX.BIN contain sprites that are shown at the end of a level (level statistics and collected cash).

At the root of the game folder :

• folder STARSHOT contains severals .BIT files. These are 320x200 8-bit screenshots of each level, shown when loading.

• .13X files. It seems they contain animated sprites, encoded just like .BIT files.

• *.PAL. These are palettes for menu and such. Each file contains 256 entries of 3 bytes. 3 x 256 = 768 bytes.

NOTE : This is for PC (DOS) version. PSX version seems to use different file format (it make sense since PSX support more than 256 colors and thus store pictures differently)
