This table is a collection of examples of some "rare" savedatas, probably will be needed to erase this section (replaced by a resume in front page) when all areas are identifyed, but by now is usefull to have an overview of how this process works and to find good candidates for tests, feel free to add any other examples you consider interesting ;) | This table is a collection of examples of some "rare" savedatas, probably will be needed to erase this section (replaced by a resume in front page) when all areas are identifyed, but by now is usefull to have an overview of how this process works and to find good candidates for tests, feel free to add any other examples you consider interesting ;) | ||
The examples in the table are considered rare because most of the other games uses the values: 1,5,1,2,2 (2 last pointers pointing to the same counter slot 2 at 0x0C) or 1,5,1,3,3 (2 last pointers pointing to the same counter slot 3 at 0x10), so dont add this kind of games to the table because are pointless | The examples in the table are considered rare because most of the other games uses the values: 1,5,1,2,2 (2 last pointers pointing to the same counter slot 2 at 0x0C) or 1,5,1,3,3 (2 last pointers pointing to the same counter slot 3 at 0x10), so dont add this kind of games to the table because are pointless, also the table doesnt includes the "user/console" areas that starts at offset 0x18 because are identifyed and explained in front page | ||
The table differences 2 types of savedata, one for "profile" and other for standard "savedata", the reason is because are treated different by the system, after the first analysis it looks the profile support more features, it can evolve by changing his type, and it can store the counters from the other savedatas when SFO's are merged (this happens after completing the game) | The table differences 2 types of savedata, one for "profile" and other for standard "savedata", the reason is because are treated different by the system, after the first analysis it looks the profile support more features, it can evolve by changing his type, and it can store the counters from the other savedatas when SFO's are merged (this happens after completing the game) |
