It doesn't store filenames.<br /> <br /> == File format ==<br /> <br /> The file starts with a [[UINT32LE]] representing the offset of the first file in the archive. Then comes a [[UINT32LE]] representing the offset of the second file, etc. Until a [[UINT32LE]] comes along who's value is the same as the file size of the archive.<br /> Between these offsets and the actual data of the first file, there is room for hidden data.<br /> <br /> The size of a file must be calculated from the offset of the next file minus its own offset.<br /> <br /> This archive doesn't store filenames, so it's impossible to determine the file formats of the archived files by looking at the filename extension. Luckily, all file formats of the files in the officially released archives can be determined by looking at the first byte of each file:<br /> <br /> {|class=&quot;wikitable&quot;<br /> !

It doesn't store filenames.<br /> <br /> == File format ==<br /> <br /> The file starts with a [[UINT32LE]] representing the offset of the first file in the archive. Then comes a [[UINT32LE]] representing the offset of the second file, etc. Until a [[UINT32LE]] comes along who's value is the same as the file size of the archive.<br /> Between these offsets and the actual data of the first file, there is room for hidden data.<br /> <br /> The size of a file must be calculated from the offset of the next file minus its own offset.<br /> <br /> This archive doesn't store filenames, so it's impossible to determine the file formats of the archived files by looking at the filename extension. Luckily, all file formats of the files in the officially released archives can be determined by looking at the first byte of each file:<br /> <br /> {|class=&quot;wikitable&quot;<br /> !

It doesn't store filenames.<br /> <br /> == File format ==<br /> <br /> The file starts with a [[UINT32LE]] representing the offset of the first file in the archive. Then comes a [[UINT32LE]] representing the offset of the second file, etc. Until a [[UINT32LE]] comes along who's value is the same as the file size of the archive.<br /> Between these offsets and the actual data of the first file, there is room for hidden data.<br /> <br /> The size of a file must be calculated from the offset of the next file minus its own offset.<br /> <br /> This archive doesn't store filenames, so it's impossible to determine the file formats of the archived files by looking at the filename extension. Luckily, all file formats of the files in the officially released archives can be determined by looking at the first byte of each file:<br /> <br /> {|class=&quot;wikitable&quot;<br /> !
