The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past

SCR files are screen files that show environments of the game world or, in other cases, mock ups with existing tiles. Because they do not store graphics themselves but the position of where tile data from a CGX should go, they require a CGX and a COL file to be viewable. The correct or near-correct CGX and COL must be used however, or else the SCR will contain errored graphics. There are many cases where in the data it appears the exact correct CGX or COL is no longer present and so a less than ideal substitute can be used to at least give some idea of what the area looked like.
