To make graphics, you need to create a folder named graphics in the level directory. Inside it, you create a file called graphicsinfo.conf. You have the graphics in PCX format. Then you edit graphicsinfo.conf to connect R&D elements to parts of PCX files.

You can see some information about graphicsinfo.conf at the Rocks 'n' Diamonds Unofficial Wiki.

It also may help to look at the graphicsinfo.conf of some graphics sets like BD2K3.

If you type:

Code: Select all

rocksndiamonds.exe --execute "print graphicsinfo.conf"
then the default graphicsinfo.conf file for classic graphics will be written to the stdout.txt.
