Technical

Technical articles cover subjects that go beyond the gameplay experience of Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy, documenting its inner workings, file structures and history. Some articles are encyclopaedic; some are guides.

These articles are of particular use to those interested in making mods for Sphinx, simply investigating the techniques behind the game, or for learning how to use the EngineX game engine. Documentation is not yet exhaustive, but is being gradually added to.
