You mean thread, Lurkily! I don't dispute that others have posted images alleging to show the third mushroom, but Becca claimed that I posted one. I have deliberately avoided posting anything "useful" about that shroom (and the seahorse).

It also stands to reason that KotOR would not include files full of partial and/or broken dialog that isn't used in the game when they ship the product. (Not to mention broken dialog options that ARE used.) Or that Fallout wouldn't ship with dialog, character sprites, and a few props that the game doesn't seem to use anywhere, and were meant for puzzles that weren't in the final game. But things like this happen.

That's why I'd like to see some evidence before I decide that something that is often regarded as an unused artistic asset, may actually be used from time to time. Of course, I'd prefer to see it for myself, but these things never seem to happen to me.

Sorry. I did make the distinction that the image was posted by Robert, not by yourself, but I missed the terminology error. My mistake. Since it was recent enough, I went and corrected my post.

Found evidence against the Secret Shroom.

The image does not exist in carrying.png, which are the images for anything the villagers carry, with the apparent exception of collectibles. The wood for building, rock for exercising, babies, fish, coconuts, the algae-fish, cauldron, the food-bowl are all here. The brown mushroom is here, as is the red shroom, but not the 'secret' shroom.
