Map Indicators

Painting Montage Oddities#


Most of the paintings found through the game (such as in Banjo's house and the paintings found throughout Banjoland) pull from the same texture atlas, which contains a bunch of oddities and outright unseen images.
Some of them were taken from prerelease screenshots of Banjo-Kazooie and Banjo-Tooie, with the watermark cropped out in most cases:

Rare Media Screenshots

IGN Media Screenshots

Uncut Images

There's also some unused images left in the atlas, such as:

Unused Mumbo Crate Skulls#


In the texture for the skull that appears on the side of the Mumbo Crates, 5 different skull icons are present. These were meant to be used on different crates in Showdown Town, but only the first skull ever gets used in-game.

Groggy#

BKN&B_Groggy.png

One of the three Boggy children and the only one to not appear as a leftover in "Home Improvements: Igloo Edition".
Despite that, his model file was left in aid_bundle_banjox_test_dialogaudio (4f/e66c1c), named aid_model_banjox_actor_boggykids_groggy. His textures are mislabeled as "gorggy".
