Could someone explain to me what the actual reason for SS using bm2 is? _________________ This help is informational only. No representation is made or warranty given as to its content. User assumes all risk of use. Cyan~Fire assumes no responsibility for any loss or delay resulting from such use.

As far as I know, they were planning on developing their own little game-specific extension (as Infantry uses...what, .blo?).
Anyways, apparently they only got as far as using .bmp's renamed to .bm2's and .wav's renamed to .wa2's.
Now, there are a few obvious unsettling reasons why CONTINUUM might still use these:
- Priit simply got a copy of the SubSpace source and hacked up what he wanted, ignoring stuff like .bm2 and just leaving it in.
- Priit is a hack programmer that for some reason duplicated this stuff when he completely remade SubSpace as the lookalike Continuum
- (least lame) because of things I don't know about and Priit simply being busy with stuff that puts food in his fridge, this stuff remains

Or because to get it accepted as a clone for Subspace, you had to be able to just copy the exe into your SS folder and have it work exactly like Subspace, such as using the files already there.

It did? I remember the SS client having all the resource files in the .DLL unlike continuum :/ _________________ Performance is often the art of cheating carefully. - James Gosling

Furthermore! I just saw this, and realized.. it is more than likely a hacked up app... check this, notice the continuum 3 from the right on the top, vs the other continuum on the bottom...
SS shield as icon, seems a little hMM questionable

Maybe Priit just wanted to keep the whole SS connection going? It makes sense to me, and for goodness sake you can change it with Resource Hacker.
