This file is an archive By JeMaCheHi Scene.out contains enemy placement data and flags for each of the contains 117 filesgame's battle encounters. I created map by reading [[FF8/Menu_mngrphd_bin|mngrphd.bin]] and filling in data from [ See the corresponding thread: http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?topic=1709915816.0 FF8 - mngrp.bin by JWP]. ==Mapped DataFile Structure==Scene.out contains no header. It is a raw list of 1024 encounters. Each encounter block consists of 128 bytes and has the following structure:

==Notes==
Each 128block can have up to 8 enemies, but if more than 4 are shown at the same time, the game will crash. This could seem stupid, but it's not. If you think about some battles, like the final battle (where we have 8 enemies), all the monsters are present, but only one or two are shown at any given time. The rest appear through scripting.
Some byte fields are just 8 switches. Here's what I've found:
In 0x01:
{{:FF8/Field/Script/Opcodes/069 BATTLE}}
In 0x04, 0x05, 0x06, and 0x07
:+128: 1st enemy relative
:+64: 2nd enemy relative
:+32: 3rd enemy relative
:+16: 4th enemy relative
:+8: 5th enemy relative
:+4: 6th enemy relative
:+2: 7th enemy relative
:+1: 8th enemy relative
An important note: If you put an enemy that "summons" another one (Ultimecia summoning Griever, Sphinxara summoning jelleye...) it will summon the enemy from certain slot. This means that if you put that enemy in another battle, it will still summon that slot, because (I think) that summoning is scripted in its AI (in c9m???.dat)
