Heroes of Might and Magic II AGG Reader and Extractor #1

Luke warm on the heels of my Doom Engine WAD Reader and Extractor program, I’ve dug out some of my really old Visual Basic 6 (VB6) code (and ported it over to C#) to allow for ICN reading, which is a Run Length Encoded (RLE) image format for storing multiple images native to the Might and Magic series, and I can note the following about my code: it’s unstable, it falls apart under pressure and all of a sudden, out of nowhere, it bails on you.

On the positive side, at least my debugger actually tells me what’s going on!

On another note, I can play the 82M sound files although for whatever reason, the sound card refuses to close after it’s finished and I don’t get this problem with anything else I’ve tried.

Dealing with the sound card is pretty new to me still, so it’s probably just a dumb-arse mistake on my part.
