Most likely is index data for the extension-less file that accompanies this file with the same name. Index data, at the very least, looks obstructed....is that the right word? O.o I've been using that a lot but I feel like I have the wrong word.... Something like that word but with an F in it that means it hides, or masks the code? Obfuscation? :O
Note: This file is just the index for a separate file by the same name, excluding extensions, that has the file data.

LC-ScriptEngine ver1.0
Each element in index is XOR'd with 0x01010101 so it is applied to 4bytes for int's and 1 byte for char's with the exception of the last element in an index entry which is a 4 byte number.


From watching file access to 'lcsebody.lst', it first reads from offset 0 with a length of 4. Then it reads the rest of the file in 76 byte chunks. This could suggest the first 4 bytes are file count and then the rest is file entries which would mean there is 598 files inside this games lcsebody. I do remember seeing 256 in one of the registers during the read loop so...Yup. Comparing a 4 byte int of 598 to the first 4 bytes in the file shows each byte has a 0x01 byte difference. Just something random... XD
Need to run more tests to check if decoding is working properly. Last few index entries look off. Need to make memory dump of index list after game decodes it in memory and compare with my results. However... Seems like I could just subtract 0x01 from each byte and that'll work too...Well, for one way decoding.


Okay. Number of files.
Update: Extracting data from memory shows a 1:1 match for index data after it is processed. Seems the last few entries are encoded in shift-JIS which will make things a little bit annoying since to extract, first convert to something the OS understands and then when building it, convert that to shift-jis. I may create a temp measure by just making the name be in hex format by testing if char is between 0x81 and 0xFC (Shift-jis takes up 2 bytes per character)

Before window title is updated, it is set to 'LC-ScriptEngine ver1.0'.

Each element in index is XOR'd with 0x01010101 so it is applied to 4bytes for int's and 1 byte for char's with the exception of the last element in an index entry which is a 4 byte number.

Need to run more tests to check if decoding is working properly. Last few index entries look off. Need to make memory dump of index list after game decodes it in memory and compare with my results. However... Seems like I could just subtract 0x01 from each byte and that'll work too...Well, for one way decoding.

Update: Extracting data from memory shows a 1:1 match for index data after it is processed. Seems the last few entries are encoded in shift-JIS which will make things a little bit annoying since to extract, first convert to something the OS understands and then when building it, convert that to shift-jis. I may create a temp measure by just making the name be in hex format by testing if char is between 0x81 and 0xFC (Shift-jis takes up 2 bytes per character)
