Yes, if somebody is doing a conversion of the Rockford levels for R'n'D, it should be perfectly possible to also use the graphics of that game.

And it should then also be possible to use these graphics for other, already existing level sets as well, just like it can be done with other custom graphics sets, if all elements used in those levels are covered by the custom graphics set.

I did that long time ago and posted it to this forum. I still have the link for all the graphics sets as well as rockford levers for RnD on this page:

https://www.mv.helsinki.fi/home/asahala/rockford/
(direct link to zip: https://www.mv.helsinki.fi/home/asahala ... ord_v1.zip)

I have also created a patcher for Rockford that enables you to play the hidden content and some kind of reconstruction of the graphics, as well as a planar EGA converter that you can use to convert between Rockford's graphics files and PNG.

You did indeed: viewtopic.php?p=11944 -- I link here just because I already went and found it, might as well save others the trouble.

The descriptions of what you did / changed / state of play / etc. in the RnD post (above) and the page on mv.helsinki.fi (in your comment) are quite different. So people who want to know all about it should read both...

Also, the old RnD forum post has 3 broken .gif links and an old link to wrongsite.helsinki.fi -- you might want to edit it to fix those...
