−
This page contains or will contain a comprehensive analysis of the 8 resources in Myst (and the two added in Myst ME).
+
This page lists resource types used by the Myst and Myst ME engines.
  
−
Both Myst and Myst ME use little-endian byte order in the files (by contrast to the big-endian byte order used in Riven and the Mohawk format), although the data itself is stored in properly formatted Mohawk format (don't let the .dni or .dat file extension fool you). The packages in Myst ME are:
+
The original Myst uses the following resource types:
−
*CHANNEL
+
* [[Myst_CLRC_resources|CLRC]]
−
*CREDITS
+
* [[Myst_EXIT_resources|EXIT]]
−
*DUNNY
+
* [[Myst_HINT_resources|HINT]]

*INTRO

−
*STONE
+
* [[Myst_VIEW_resources|VIEW]]
−
*SYSTEM
+
* [[Myst_WDIB_resources|WDIB]]
−
The resources are on the left (MJMP and PICT are new in ME). None of the resources are named except for the MSND/MJMP resources.
+

==CLRC==
+
Myst Masterpiece Edition introduces three new types:
−
All CLRC resources follow the pattern:
+
* [[Myst_HELP_resources|HELP]]
−
{| class="structure"
+
* [[Myst_MJMP_resources|MJMP]]
−
|short||u1
+
* [[Myst_PICT_resources|PICT]]
−
|-
+
−
|short||u2
+
−
|}
+
−
*''u1'' and ''u2'' are both 1, 6, 7, 8, 9, or 14 for all files
+
  
−
==EXIT==
+
None of the resources are named except for MSND and MJMP.
−
I think these are variables, although that seems unlikely because SELEN has no EXIT resources.
+
−
<noinclude>===Case studies (all of them)===
+
−
Note: these are presented as ''resource_index''.''length short...'' where the data is broken into shorts and displayed in decimal.

==MSND==
+
−
It is interesting to note that all MSND resources in the whole game are named except for INTRO 1 (the linking sound). In all the other packages, this sound is labeled "transprt7" (in MYST) or "transprt1" and "transprt2" (which all appear to be the same, although transprt1 and transprt2 are separate resources in the package).
+
−
 
+
−
==RLST and VIEW==
+
−
There are the same number of RLST and VIEW resources in all packages, which leads me to believe that they are locked together by index like HSPT and CARD resources in Riven.
+
−

===RLST===

I think these contain hotspot data (i.e. HSPT).

(Note: these are simply the data in (little-endian) shorts and line-broken where I saw patterns. <l t b r> are (I think) areas on-screen. count [entry]... are guesses at when there are lists of entries. The number in parentheses before the data is the card number (not the resource number).)

This page lists resource types used by the Myst and Myst ME engines.

The original Myst uses the following resource types:

Myst Masterpiece Edition introduces three new types:

None of the resources are named except for MSND and MJMP.
