order to find these files in scene.bin, you have to know that the file is structured with blocks exactly 0x2000 bytes in length. In the first table (scene.bin block), you will see what contains a block. Blocks are concatenated with each other to form the scene.bin file. So if you want to extract data from scene.bin, you'll need to find the correct blocks and to extract the gziped files from it. After that you simply ungzip those files and you'll find 256 files, with a length is 7808 bytes. Known information about those files can be found in the second table (The Data File specification). Because extracting file manually would be a pain, several tools was developed in order to help you. You can use [http://spinningcone.com/ff/stormmedia/projects/SceneReader.zip Scene Reader] for example, it's a win32 tool to extract and repack scene.bin archive.

We have 1024 possible battle numbers: 0 - 1023. Each group of *4* Battle Numbers refers to a

particular Scene file: for instance, Battles 0-3 refer to File 0 in Scene.bin, Battles 4-7 refer to File 1 in Scene.bin, and so forth.

NOTES:

*A monster's total AI size will always be an even number of bytes. If the actual scripts are an odd number, a single NULL (FFh) will be placed before the next monster's AI header (may not be required).
