FIXBITS.BIN

Jump to navigation Jump to search

FIXBITS.BIN stores a series of bits that indicate whether or not various file format fixes have been applied to an RPG file. Due to the nature of files and the fact that the base unit of storage is the byte, the file size will be rounded up to the nearest byte.

Also note that the bits are stored in Little-Endian order (so, the 0th bit is, quite literally, the first bit in the file).

All bits default to 0/false, including those that are beyond the end of the file, and even if the file does not exist.
