== HRC Hierarchy data format ==
An HRC file is product of the original Playstation Psy-Q 3D development libraries. They describe the bone hierarchy of a 3D model. Most of the time they originally start as a plain text file exported from 3D editing software, or from a 3D file converter. From this they can be "compiled" into binary form more usable for the PSX.
But I think that since you read this document, you've got some knowledge 'bout 3D models and skeletons. Let's just start, this format's quite simple! ^_^
=== HRC file format ===
Since the HRC files are simple plain-text files, you can open them in notepad or any other text editor. Here are the first four bones of "abjb.hrc" (Yuffie's Hierarchy)

Tells you how much bones are stored in this skeleton.
==== Bones ====
Every bone consist of 4 Lines, which look like this. Let's first take a look at the lines of the first bone:
<FONT COLORfont color="GREEN"> First Line: ("hip")</FONTfont>
This is the name of the current bone.
<FONT COLORfont color="GREEN">Second Line: ("root")</FONTfont>
This is the name of the parent bone. The parent bone must be already listed above in the skeleton file,or it can be "root" (origin).
<FONT COLORfont color="GREEN">Third Line: ("2.9662")</FONTfont>
That's the Length of the bone.
<FONT COLORfont color="GREEN">Fourth Line #1: ("0")</font>
<font color="GREEN">Fourth Line #2: ("1 ABJC")</font>
<font color="GREEN">Fourth Line #3: ("2 ABJC ABJD")</FONTfont>
This line consist of 2 or more different values. First, there is a number telling many RSD files are aligned to this model. If it has no RSD File, the number is 0. If the number is 1, there is a string after the number telling you the name of the Resource Data File (RSD). The RSD file tells you which .p Model to use.
There may be even more than 2 RSD Files on 1 Bone, however this has yet be be seen.
=== Notes ===
There are no bone angles, just bone lengths. The HRC file only contains hierarchy data. To build a skeleton, animation files are required.
