Gog C1 and .rcb files?

So, i've got the Albian Years and am happily running C1. I can add cobs just fine, but the Object injector is... different, i think. I can't figure out how to remove the cobs - there's no option to use the .rcb files. Anyone know how to help?

If not, does anyone know to where to find the cob that removes items held in the hand when you inject it? or was that for another game?

I think RCB files are just COB files. The extension makes the game read them as a remover. If you rename all files ending in RCB to make them end in COB, you can probably inject the remover as a separate agent. I can't test this for you because I don't have creatures 1 installed, just try it with one RCB file first.

I know the COB you are talking about for killing held objects. Unfortunately I cannot find it. Hopefully someone else knows where it is.

Here's a piece of information from the manual.

The C1 Manual wrote:

Remove Object:
Remove the selected object from Albia. If there is a * next to the name in
the main list, the object cannot be automatically removed using this button.

(...)

A Note on Removing Objects:
The Object Injector supports the .RCB COB file removal system. RCBs are “Remove COB” files. They share the same filename as the COB, but are .RCB rather than .COB. A RCB file is a special COB that removes that object from Albia. Some older COBs are unlikely to come with RCBs. In these cases, follow any instructions that came with the object ir contact the authors directly.

The manual doesn't seem to apply for the GoG version, though - this is what the Object injector looks like in it:
GoG Object injector

As opposed to the version in the original Creatures 1, C1 Object injector

I think the GOG.com edition is using a version slightly older than the current version.

To update - first install Don's remastered patch, then it must be possible to update your injector from here.

That worked! Phew, good to know. I expected it to be patched fully, considering it contained all the life kit stuff and PMN norns and the like

I always patched my original C1 before running, so I didn't realize that was the original object injector. Thanks!
