I know this isn't a good idea but hey, it's the best title I can think of. Anyway, looking at the title, you might already know that this blog will be covering unknown files that were found along with the "SOUND" (Stage Songs) folder in mda-c0042.chd. Once figuring out the files, it's possible to modify the ROM (In other words, the game!!!).
Figuring out the acronym of the folder[]
This isn't really too hard. We can assume that OBJ and TEX are Objects (Models) and Textures.
- OBJ_ACC
- OBJ_DRESS
- OBJ_FOOT
- OBJ_HAIR
- TEX_ACC
- TEX_DRESS
- TEX_FOOT
- TEX_HAIR
While we can all assume that HAIR, FOOT and DRESS all falls into the card categories (Hair & Makeup Card, Dress Up Card, Footwear Card, etc.), you might find it odd that there is no file for Special Items Card and it can only lead to one thing: ACC. What the hell does ACC stand for? Well, I believed it means nothing at first but it can be assumed that it stands for "Accessories". It makes sense.
Hold on, Hold on. What is 1STREAD.bin? And osm_3_eng_v1002.bin?
According to the DEMUL Developer, osm_3_eng_v1002.bin contains bunch of models, textures and sounds. However, it is heavily encrypted with Naomi4 and is in ISO9660 Format. Unless someone is able to decrypt it...
No idea what 1STREAD.bin is. It does sound like it is related to scanning barcodes?
