| − | This is a work in progress - at the moment it isn't much more than just a structure map.
| + | [[Category:Modding]] |
| − | | + | [[Category:InternalFormats]] |
| − | I have exported a series of PERS files from a lot - they are the ones I am using for comparisons - you can download them from [[http:''www.watto.org/xzistenz/PERS.zip http:''www.watto.org/xzistenz/PERS.zip]] . These files were created in a blank neighbourhood with 1 new person, and have had minimal changes to help detect specific field functions - see the text file in the zip for more information.
