Dink Smallwood died. As had happened so many times before, he fell to his knees and planted his face into a rapidly-expanding pool of his own blood. But this time was different. When the player pressed the start button, Dink was still dead, for true death is a thing that cannot be undone. The player was confused. He checked the scripts - Skorn must have done this using save_exist. "That's actually pretty clever," he thought. "Maybe I won't give this the Award of Badness after all." But there was nothing to cause this in the scripts. He deleted all of the save files and tried again. Dink was still dead.

He tried to launch another D-Mod. Dink was dead there, too. The snarky hero, the former pig farmer, he was no more. The other characters in the intro to "Dink's Doppleganger" acted as if he were still there, but when the game started, he could do nothing. It was the same with every D-Mod he tried, except those that didn't star Dink at all - those still worked. But Dink himself was dead and gone. They had asked so much of him, pushed him into so many strange and awful situations. The chins were the last straw. The concept of Dink Smallwood had died.


- The Predictions of Cocomonkey, Verses 24-33.

There's your answer. The Great Vanishing of Dink Sprites that escalates into the Vanishing of Dink Himself has begun.

But really, that is some weird shit. If this is the file you checked for the boots, are they not in inter/menu? I checked. They're not. Weird decision to not include them. I guess just reinstall unless you have some way to unpack the graphics from the original game?

If that doesn't work, take heed the words of The Predictions of Cocomonkey for the Great Vanishing is the first true sign of end times. The only way to stop it is to prevent Dink and the Chins from existing and we don't have time to build a time machine unless us beginning work on one creates an alternate timeline where the Great Vanishing isn't a threat and we eventually make the time machine, travel to this dimension's past, and then stop Dink and the Chins from existing.
