I know that with Incbin you can embed an extern files into a executable file.
However -- is there any way for *another* program to easily load to load these embedded resources as well?
For example, program1.exe embeds some images. is there a way for program2.exe to 'easily' load these same embedded images as well?
This could be useful for say a game add-on expansion that is self-contained, but loads (parts of) its image data out of the main executable of the orginal version, both cutting down on the filesize needed for the update, and requiring a dependency on the original game.
Alternatively, it could also be helpful if a future update of BMax might have the option to store the incbin'ed information to a stand-alone 'container' file in addition to the current behaviour of embedding them into the actual .EXE. (Kind of what Molebox does, you can choose either method)
