OBD:File types/Naming

From OniGalore
Jump to navigation Jump to search
  • Except for TXMP and M3GM, files are either always named or always unnamed
  • Unnamed files are necessarily linked to by file-ID from another file
  • Named files may or may not be linked to by file-ID from another file
  • Named files are the only ones directly accessed by the engine
  • Unnamed files are the "private" data of their respective parents
    • (the fact that they can be "shared" doesn't make them "public")

Hierarchy (parents/children) is based on links-by-file-ID only.

Additional information on links-by-filename and links-by-label is provided when appropriate.




TXMP

TXMP are generally named; unnamed TXMP are always animation frames of a named TXMP.

Unnamed TXMP

parent
(unnamed) TXAN (part of (named) TXMP)

There are also orphan TXMPs (named TXMPs without a parent)

Orphan TXMP

  • cinematic panels (almost sure)
  • GUI elements? (not so sure)




M3GM

M3GM are generally unnamed (possible parents detailed below).

TRCM

Unnamed TRCM (the most common in Oni) belong to a "body set" (TRBS), and specify the geometry/hierarchy of body meshes for one LOD (a TRBS has space for 5 TRCM links, but a same TRCM is often used by several LODs). An unnamed TRCM is linked only from one TRBS, and typically each TRCM has its own unique unique TRGA (geometry array), whereas the TRIA and TRTA (skeleton data) are typically shared between all of a TRBS's TRCMs.
There are five (5) named TRCM occurring in Vanilla Oni, named bip_***. They are empty (filled with blanks) except for their 8-byte header (instance ID and level ID), i.e. they do not have valid TRTA, TRIA or TRGA links, and do not hold any information except for their name. However, they are related to unnamed orphan TRCM which occur immediately after the named TRCM and elsewhere in the level file: the instance name of the named TRCM is referenced in the comment field (a.k.a. "internal name") of the unnamed orphan TRCM, with the .MME suffix, e.g., in any Vanilla that has Shinatama in it, Shinatama's actual TRBS and TRCM will be preceded by TRCMbip_shinatama and by an unnamed orphan TRCM containing the string bip_shinatama.MME. The correspondence between the "internal name" of these TRCM and their geometrical properties are as follows:
  • bip_konoko.MME corresponds to Kon002_xlow.mme, i.e., the lowest LOD of TRBSkonoko_body_high (Konoko's main TCTF outfit);
  • bip_comguy.MME corresponds to comguy_3_xlow.mme, i.e., the lowest LOD of TRBScomguy_3_body_high (dark-skinned);
  • bip_striker.MME corresponds to striker_10_xlow.mme, i.e., the lowest LOD of TRBSstriker_10_body_high (the ai2_chump one);
  • bip_shinatama.MME corresponds to SH_high.mme, i.e., the only LOD of TRBSSH_body_high (Shinatama);
  • bip_zombie.MME corresponds to Red1_high.mme, i.e., the high LOD of TRBSRed1_body_high (Fury).
The unnamed orphan TRCM are lost when unpacking instance files, and the game is not affected by their absence after repacking. Judging from their location in the Vanilla Oni .dat's, they were apparently bundled with TRACs, or rather with ONCC groups (doctors, security guards, male civilians, etc) that were added to each level (perhaps intended as dummies for animation preview).
All of the characters except Shinatama and "Zomitama" are bundled with one of the three "main" named TRCM, consistent with the constitution of their TRTA (more specifically, leg length). The most notable oddity is the high-LOD Fury mesh being used for bip_zombie, but there are a few more, like snipers being bundled with bip_striker even though they're Tanker/comguy-based.
