Structures

structHeader

structHeader { char signature[4]; //"OPWR" ulong version; //0x12 = 18 ulong texX,texZ; //textures cell dimensions. 256x256 eg ulong gridX,gridZ; //elevations cell dimensions. 256x256 eg float gridSize; //in meters (normally 50.0) }

---

structGridPack

is currently in the 'discussion tab'. Pack is a misleading term as the data is not packed so the name of this structure will most likely change.

---

structPeaks

structPeaks { ulong nPeaks; float XZY[nPeaks][3]; //Position of the Peak (Z is height) }

---

---

structTextureGridMaterials

structTextureGridMaterials { //still need to be worked out }

---

---

structMaterials

structMaterials { ulong nMaterials; //Number of Rvmat entries (at least one) structMaterial Materials[nMaterials]; } At least one material is always present at the first position of Materials with an empty path, so nMaterials appears to be one more than the real count of materials.

structMaterial

structMaterial { asciiz rvmat_path; byte 0x00; }

---

---

structModels

structModels { ulong nModels; //number of models asciiz modelPaths[nModels]; //e.g. ca\buildings\kostelik.p3d }

This is a simple list of models that are used on the island. These are referenced in structObject by their index in the modelPaths array with the first index being 0.

---

---

structClassedModels

structClassedModels { ulong nClassedModels; //number of classed models structClassedModel Models[nClassedModels]; }

structClassedModel

structClassedModel { asciiz class_name; //e.g. Land_Hangar asciiz model_path; //e.g. ca\buildings\kostelik.p3d float pos[3]; //XZY ulong unknown; }

---

---

structRoadNet

structRoadNet { ulong nRoadParts; // Zero or More... structRoadPart RoadParts[nRoadParts]; } Because of the variable length of the asciiz strings in structRoadPart, the actual position of the following structObjects block cannot be pre-calculated. Therefore the ObjectBlockOffset can be used, as it is the size (in bytes) of this structRoadNet block.

Each grid cell of an island contains a structRoadNet entry. If there are no road(s) in that cell, there are no structRoadParts. Consequently, a 256 x 256 cell island with no roads would have a structRoadNet block consisting of 256 x 256 x 4 zeros. So if ObjectBlockOffset == texZ * texX * 4, you can skip this block, because you know it does not contain any roads.

It is probably saved this way to better realize terrain streaming.

structRoadPart

structRoadPart { ushort nRoadPositions; float RoadPositions[nRoadPositions][3]; //XYZ byte Flags[4]; asciiz Model; float matrix[12]; }

---

---

structObject Optional

structObject { ulong ObjectID; ulong modelIndex; float matrix[12]; ulong 0x02; }

if SizeOfObjects above == 0 then there are, no objects.

modelIndex refers to the list of modelpaths in structModels.

ObjectID is used to uniquely identify every object. Therefore you won't find two objects having the same ObjectID.

---

---

structMapInfo Optional

structMapInfo { ulong infoType; if(infoType in [0,1,2,10,11,13,14,15,16,17,22,23,26,27,30]) structType1 type1; if(infoType in [24,31,32]) structType2 type2; if(infoType in [25,33]) structType3 type3; if(infoType in [3,4,8,9,18,19,20,28,29]) structType4 type4; if(infoType in [34]) structType5 type5; }

Mapinfo, when it exists, extends to end of file.

structType1

structType1 { ulong ObjectId float x, z }

structType2

structType2 { ulong ObjectId float[4][2] Bounds }

structType3

structType3 { long[2] unknown float[2][2] line? }

structType4

structType4 { ulong ObjectId float[4][2] Bounds byte[4] Color //rgba }

structType5

structType5 { ulong ObjectId float[2][2] line? }

Packed Data

All variables starting with "Packed" are compressed with the common BIS algorithm that is also used in paa and OFP pbo files.
