FF8/Menu sp2

This file is a mapping file for atlas textures like icons.tex

Layout of icon.sp1:

Header

(4 x (PointerCount + 1)) bytes

Offset	SizeOf	Name	Description
0	UInt32	PointerCount	Number of entries
4	Struct Pointer[PointerCount]	Pointers	Seek locations for entry groups

Pointer

4 bytes

Offset	SizeOf	Name	Description
0	UInt16	Pointer	Seek location for entry group
2	UInt16	Count	Number of entries in group

Entry Group

(8 x Count) bytes
At pointer's location there will be Struct Entry[Count]. Example of an entry group is the direction pad is in eight pieces. Four of them are unpressed and four are pressed versions. It has four entries for the direction pad depending on the directions it is highlighting.

Entry

8 bytes

Offset	SizeOf	Name	Description
0	Byte	xPos	Pixel X coordinate in image atlas
1	Byte	yPos	Pixel Y coordinate in image atlas
2	Byte[2]	UNK	Unknown data
4	Byte	Width	Width of entry in pixels
5	Byte	Offset X	Offset of X coordinate for when drawing
6	Byte	Height	Height of entry in pixels
7	Byte	Offset Y	Offset of Y coordinate for when drawing

Invalid Entries will have X and Y of zero. The top 16x16 pixel area is blank. Everything in icon.tex is aligned to a 8x8 grid. Some entry groups leave out connecting pieces I think you are expected to fill in the blank. Some things like the menu border and menu background don't appear to be listed in this file.

End of file

Everything at and beyond file pointer 4272 {0x10C0} appears to be garbage.

Layout of face.sp2 and cardanm.sp2:

Both face.sp2 and cardanm.sp2 have the same layout. Main difference is face.sp2 has 32 valid and 64 total entries. cardanm.sp2 only has 11 valid entries and 1 invalid, as it has no dims. In each of the card texture files the final slot is the Triple Triad card back. If the entry had dims they would be X=192,Y=128, W=64, H=64.

Header

Offset	SizeOf	Name	Description
0	UInt32	Count	Number of entries Count can be more than the actual images in the texture. face.sp2: There are 8 images per texture in 2 textures, and there are 32/64 valid entries. 1 is blank. cardanm.sp2: There are 11 images pre texture in 10 textures, and there are 11/12 valid entries. The 12th entry is the card back but it's missing dims.
4	UInt32[Count]	Locations	Seek location for each entry

Entry

16 bytes

Offset	SizeOf	Name	Description
0	UInt32	Count	Number of entries at this location Always 1
4	byte	xPos	Pixel X coordinate in image atlas
5	byte	yPos	Pixel Y coordinate in image atlas face.sp2: Invalid entries seem to have yPos>=Texture.Height. Detected switch from face1.tex to face2.tex when yPos<previous.yPos.
6	byte[2]	UNK	Unknown face.sp2: {0x20,0x36} on the valid entries. {0x60,0x36} on invalid entries. cardanm.sp2: {0x20,0xB6} on the valid entries. {0x00,0x00} on the invalid entry.
8	UInt16	Width	Width of entry in pixels Possible this is really a byte with a 0 x-offset.
10	UInt16	Height	Height of entry in pixels Possible this is really a byte with a 0 y-offset.
12	byte[4]	UNK	Unknown face.sp2: {0x00,0x00,0x8E,0x00} on most. Last one has all {0x00} cardanm.sp2: {0x00,0x00,0xAE,0x00} on most. Last one has all {0x00}

End of file

face.sp2File ends with byte[16] of {0x00}

There is one blank space in face1.tex, I skipped that entry.

Content of mc00.tex-mc09.tex

Each level on the fandom wiki pageis in the same order of the contents of the tex files. The cardback is always the bottom right of each texture.
