Book Backgrounds#

These do not seem to appear in the game. Most of the book backgrounds in the release version are in color.

Chests, Crates Textures and Bottoms#

Textures

All of the unused chests have their own bottom texture. Because chests aren't opening on a world map, we can assume that there were plans for such feature for all of the unused chest types. Vanilla chest for comparison:

Vanilla crate is made of chest inside bottom texture. Here are crates for all of the chest types made out of unused bottoms, but we can assume that not all of the chests were going to have crate counterpart. Vanilla crate for comparison:

Bottoms Backgrounds Original background for comparison:

Arcomage#

Unused Menu Buttons

In the end Arcomage has no menu at all.

Unused Wall Fragment

Probably unused top of the player's wall.

Old Map of Emerald Island#

Both dungeons seem to be missing on the early map. The marsh area was composed of grass tiles. The docks were absent as well as the ship on top of the map.

The areas from the early map can be seen on the screenshots on the pre-release page.

Stolen Paintings#

The bitmaps with paintings in the game are shown only partially; surrounding walls are hidden. Here are listed places with corresponding walls:

Roland and Angel pictures:
- Lord Markham's Manor
- Grand Temple of the Moon.
Archibald painting:
- The Small House
- Temple of the Light
- Grand Temple of the Sun
- The Hall of the Pit
- Thunderfist Mountain
- the Titans Stronghold.

It's rather likely that they were supposed to be found in Grand Temple of the Moon, Grand Temple of the Sun respectively and Lord Markham's Manor.

In-game Treants use only one idle sprite, different from the sprites below

Corpses#

Some of the corpses sprites in the game have a set of 5 rotations just like in M&M8, though the game always displays the same one regardless of angle. Only the first angle from each set in gallery below was used. Moreover unused small Troll enemy also had all lying sprites, big version had only one in the game files.
