OBD:Oni Binary Data

If you want an introduction to modding for beginners, you should read Modding Oni.

The XML namespace documents the game data in a way which is more modding-oriented and modder-friendly.

The OBD namespace is devoted to documenting Oni's binary data (.dat/.raw[/.sep] files), as reverse-engineered by dedicated members of the fan community. Needless to say, this is a highly technical area of the wiki, and knowledge of topics such as hexadecimal, pointers, and endianness is a prerequisite.

This database's information has been used by modders in such projects as:

• The Anniversary Edition
• Oni ni Kanabo
• The Binary Improvement Project
• OniFly

The knowledge documented here was also used to develop modding tools such as:

• OniSplit
• OniUnPacker (OUP)
• Oni Model Extractor (OME)
• Oni Trainer

Directory

• Instance file format (.dat files)
• Raw/separate file format (.raw & .sep files)
• persist.dat (save-game file)
• Resource types (ONCC, TRAM, etc.)
• Data types (integers, floats, etc.)
• Globalization (duplication and false duplicates in the resources)
• Localizations (non-English versions of Oni)
• Versions (database of all releases' level files)
• Text encoding (variant encodings found in localizations)
• Oni 2 game data (the Angel Studios dev build)
