ok i was wondering if anyone had decoded the **ab file thats asociated with the battle models in final fantay 7 if so i was wondering what exactly it is.
my limited knowledge leads me to believe that it may be a key file of some discription which is used to call animations in game that is my theory anyway time to make it a hypothosis and test what happens if i change things in it
after extensive testing i've come up with the belief that its a look up table either that or uncompressed animations or camera points i havent tested far enough yet to be able to tell for certain but i did get another character to use braver

You are speaking about the PC version? I am not certain but you should try the wiki (http://wiki.qhimm.com/Main_Page) maybe? I know the Playstation battle format (http://wiki.qhimm.com/FF7/Playstation_Battle_Model_Format) fairly well as for the PC that is a different animal. You will notice in the Game Tweaking (http://forums.qhimm.com/index.php?board=3.0) forum they are modifying models for the PC version (not just making substitutions). So it's likely that it is known, just doesn't seem to have been connected with the wiki for some strange reason (hey anyone going to add it in? I put my knowledge of the battle models for the PSX in ... sigh). In any case they are similar and dissimilar at the same time.
