Info

WMSETxx.obj (where xx may refer to gr,us,it,fr,sp) is a multi-data world map file containing many core functions and 3D objects. This file contains almost everything: sounds, scripts, dialogs, texts, textures, models- all contained in one file. Main differences between en/it/gr/sp/fr are localized dialogs, so next sections have different offsets. Offsets before this are all the same. Wmset.obj is probably never used in-game and is leftover. Dialogs in lang-en/wmset.obj are in english, but the file is different from wmsetus.obj.

General structure

WMSETxx.obj is made from 48 sections. File starts with header, that has 48*4 bytes. Every offset is 4 bytes long.

Offset Length Description
0 4 bytes Section 1
SectNmbr * 4 4 bytes Section SectNmbr

The last section is offset 188.

Section 38: World map textures archive

This section starts with header pointing to relative offsets to .TIM textures. When engine reads offset as 0 (00 00 00 00) then ends reading offsets (so 0 is end of offset list). This is one of the larger sections in file. THIS section is responsible for 1/2 world map textures (Those are really used in-game). There is 36 textures inside as of original release. Also, sea, beach and special effects texture is present.

Offset Length Description
0 4 bytes Relative offset to texture
Various (144 originally) 4 bytes '00 00 00 00' - offset list end
Offset pointed by header Various .TIM texture (10 00 00 00 08)

Section 39: Textures - roads, train track, bridge

This section starts with header pointing to relative offsets to .TIM textures. When engine reads offset as 0 (00 00 00 00) then ends reading offsets (so 0 is end of offset list). THIS section is responsible for train track textures, road textures, bridge train track texture (the one that gets through FH).

Offset Length Description
0 4 bytes Relative offset to texture
Various (52 originally) 4 bytes '00 00 00 00' - offset list end
Offset pointed by header Various .TIM texture (10 00 00 00 08)

Section 40: One world map texture/NULL

This section starts with header pointing to relative offsets to only one .TIM texture. This is the first texture that is in texl.obj or wmsetxx.obj/Section 38.

Section 42: Vehicle and object textures

This section starts with header pointing to relative offsets to .TIM textures. When engine reads offset as 0 (00 00 00 00) then ends reading offsets (so 0 is end of offset list). THIS section is responsible for vehicles, world map objects textures (Balamb mobile, Galbadia mobile, Balamb halo ring, cactuar statue, lunatic pandora...)
