By myst6re
= FF8DISCX.IMG File Format =
Almost all of the game files are hidden in the FF8DISCX.IMG (with X=disc number) file.
== Root Files ==
In the case of a Japanese iso, the file begins directly with a list of file location and size, with the following format:
{| borderclass="1" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" align="center" style="border: 1px solid black; border-collapse: collapse;wikitable"! style="background:rgb(204,204,204)" | Offset! style="background:rgb(204,204,204)" | Size! style="background:rgb(204,204,204)" | Data
|-

'''Notes:'''
* I do not have the American iso, please fix this article if you can.* We do not know how many files there are in the list, neither file names!* Each file in FF8DISCX.IMG are relative to the start of the '''iso'''! {| border="1" cellspacing="1" cellpaddingclass="3" align="center" style="border: 1px solid black; border-collapse: collapse;wikitable"! style="background:rgb(204,204,204)" | ID! style="background:rgb(204,204,204)" | Filename (from PC version)! style="background:rgb(204,204,204)" | Notes

=== Third file (*.LZK) ===
Almost like the [[FF8/FileFormat_ONE|chara.one]] file. The main difference is that the models data are compressed.
