VGHD Data FOLDER

Another mystery solved by WyldAnimal

models.lst structure

start of file
4 bytes of code ? ( possibly a version number ? )
4 bytes of code - hex - total number of cards in all collections, purchased or not, in the Models folder.
(hex numbers are low byte high byte orded, read L2 L1 H2 H1 reorder to H1 H2 L1 L2 )

CARDLOOP:
loop for number of cards
Start of cards
4 bytes of code - hex - length of card name a0001 = 5
next bytes - this will be the card name, use the hex above to determine how many bytes to read.
4 bytes of code - hex - length of Modle name(s)
next bytes - this is the model(s) name - number of bytes from hex above
4 bytes of code - hex - length of Outfit name 
next bytes - this is the outfit name
4 bytes of code - hex - length of the date
next bytes of code - this is the date the card was added to your collection yyyy-mm-dd
4 bytes of code - card status - See *** Status codes only first two bytes used
4 bytes of code - hex - Sum Total in bytes of total size of all clips for this card
4 bytes of code - hex - number of clips for this card set including demo clips

CLIPLOOP:
loop for number of clips in card
Start of Clips
4 bytes of code - hex - length of clip file name
next bytes - this is the clip filename - number of bytes from above (a0001_64412.vghd)
4 bytes of code - hex - last two digits of the clip filename  then CLIP NUMBER (0c hex or 12 dec)
4 bytes of code - hex - the clip level of explicitness from 00 to 05  (04 hex)
4 bytes of code - hex - bit sum for type of clip. add 80hex or 128dec for non-demo clip (c0 hex or 192 dec)
4 bytes of code - hex - Actual size of clip file in bytes

Repeat CLIPLOOP: for all clips in this card

Repeat CARDLOOP: for all cards in all collections, or until end of file is found.

*** Card Status codes described.
first two bytes of the 4 are used

								      a1   a2   b1   b2
a1 = 0 not checked, full shows not downloaded  			bits 0000 aaaa bbbb bbbb
a1 = 8 checked, full shows not downloaded			bits 1000 aaaa bbbb bbbb
a1 = 1 not checked, full shows downloaded			bits 0001 aaaa bbbb bbbb
a1 = 9 checked, full shows downloaded				bits 1001 aaaa bbbb bbbb
a1 = 2 being downloaded	- blacked out				bits 0010 aaaa bbbb bbbb
a1 = 4 ?							bits 0100 aaaa bbbb bbbb


a2 = 0 demos not downloaded					bits aaaa 0000 bbbb bbbb
a2 = 8 demos downloaded						bits aaaa 0100 bbbb bbbb
a2 = 3 Free demos not downloaded and Delete?			bits aaaa 0011 bbbb bbbb
a2 = 1 free demos						bits aaaa 0001 bbbb bbbb
a2 = 2 Deleted							bits aaaa 0010 bbbb bbbb
a2 = 4 ?							bits aaaa 0100 bbbb bbbb


b1 = 0 not purchased						bits aaaa aaaa 0000 bbbb
b1 = 4 purchased						bits aaaa aaaa 0100 bbbb 

b2 = 0 not favored						bits aaaa aaaa bbbb 0000
b2 = 4 selected for favorites					bits aaaa aaaa bbbb 0100

examples:

80 40 00 00 = need demos and full shows, checked in collection

88 40 00 00 = checked, demos downloaded,  purchased, not favored

98 44 00 00 = checked, full shows downloaded, demos downloaded, purchased, on favorites list

18 40 00 00 = not checked, full shows downloaded, demos downloaded, purchased, not favored


Note - Possible bug in VGHD software
When Full Card is Downloaded before the Demos / trailers,  a2 bit 3 is set,  along with a1 bit 1
a2 bit 3 should not be set until the Demos / trailers are downloaded.
