I just got Arcanum installed -- at long last -- and for fun I'm mucking through the saved game files and I'm trying to find where information is stored. Each game has 4 files associated with it. For example, my test game has:
- Slot0000.bmp /* Screenshot at save */
- Slot0000[savegamename].gsi /* Short file that holds character name, saved game name, and some other alternating bytes. I think the byte at position 31 (0 indexed) increments for each save -- my games are on 0a, 0b, 0c... */
- Slot0000.tfaf 600+ kB binary file
- Slot0000.tfai 1kB binary file
I've run through them with some basic searches (such as looking for the stats of my character -- this may be thrown off by racial modifiers but I was relatively thorough) and really have not found much. Anyone done this before? Any tips?
