Bin file structure

AGG file is an archive which contains multiple files. Bin files contain information related to displaying images (sprites) on screen.

Monster/creature related bin file starts from short name of the creature ending by frm. For example, goblnfrm.bin. The size of this file is always 821 bytes

Creature animation frames are divided by sections. Each section could have up to 16 frames.
