Scripting and Reverse Engineering / PSX files and disassembly

« on: 2004-03-24 02:27:27 »

Does anyone know or have a link to info about the playstation (PSX) executable files? These are the files on playstation games that are named SLUS_xxx.yy.  I'm looking for basically header information, string table offsets, etc.

Also does anyone know of a good disassembler for these files. I know that they are MIPS but standard MIPS disassemblers don't work because the executable code starts at a different offset.

I noticed that MESS (http://www.mess.org) has code for the PSX files so I'll take a look at those but does anyone know of any other sources of documentation??

I did use Google to search for this but didn't find very much info..

Thanks in advance.

Scripting and Reverse Engineering / Save games

« on: 2003-09-27 19:16:03 »

Is there some documentation on how saved games are structured in Final Fantasy 7 and 8 (probably similar to 9 and 10). Does it use compression? Are they even the same?

I looked through the Griever source but there are magic numbers all over the place and It can be hard to follow.

Thanks,
