It's probably either Level Graphics or Level Graphics Resource or something like that.

hmm google:
Definitions of lgr on the Web:

* Low grain refrigerant dehumidifiers operate more effectively in low-grain conditions.

I think Level Graphics (Resource) will be right. :?

No but Balazs clearly didn't know what he was doing when he made Elma :mrgreen:

The real answer is actually Large Golden Ragamuffin.

Elma uses special files with extension “LGR” to store ingame graphics. The idea is to separate level topology (LEV files) and level visual properties (LGR files), which allows several levels to share same visual properties and thus drastically reduces the average amount of data required to store playable levels. LGR files first appeared in elma, but the idea was used in across as well — there were LEI files, each defined its own game appearance by specifying map colors, textures, objects, bike parts, etc, much like LGR files do. LEI files contained no image data though, only picture names that were used to retrieve appropriate images from across.res, where all the game graphics was stored along with other game data (including LEI files themselves). LEI files were in turn associated with levels via special reference table hardcoded in across.exe.

LGR may stand for Level Graphics Resource.
