As many know, I've done a lot of work on Bash's mod record definitions, and recently expanded on that with CBash. About 99% of the mod file format is well understood, but there are a few sub-records that are not yet deciphered. As a low priority project, I'd like to fill in the blanks.

If you happen to know how one of these sub-records is used (or know definitively that they aren't used), know the format of the sub-record, or have other information, please post.

They are:

• XRGD - found in ACHR,ACRE records
  
  • Description: Ragdoll Data.
    
  • Used by Engine: Likely.
    
  • Format: Unknown.
  
  
• NIFT - found in CREA records
  
  • Description: Texture Files Hashes.
    
  • Used by Engine: Likely.
    
  • Format: Unknown.
    
  • Notes: Might be similar to MODT.
  
  
• PGAG - found in PGRD records
  
  • Description: Unknown use.
    
  • Used by Engine: Unused by the game, but used by the CS.

  • Description: Unknown use.

• DELE - found in TES4 records
  
  • Description: Unknown use.
    
  • Used by Engine: Probably not.

These have been removed from the above list since they're now known.

• DATA - found in LVLI records
  
  • Description: Flags.
    
  • Used by Engine: The CS changes it to the LVLF entry, so the game likely does the same.
    
  • Format: Any value other than 0 is equal to LVLF's Calc for each item in count.
    
  • Notes: Old flag field, superseded by LVLF.
  
  
• SCDA - found in SCPT,QUST,INFO records
  
  • Description: Compiled script.
    
  • Used by Engine: Yes.
    
  • Format: Described at http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Tes4Mod:Mod_File_Format/SCPT.

Found a little more http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Tes4Mod:Mod_File_Format/LAND on the LAND's DATA subrecord that I overlooked. No real specifics, but it is a starting point.

Partially deciphered "DATA - found in LVLI records". Main post updated.

Isn't the SCDA subrecord's structure documented in the wiki ?

...
How did I miss that? :banghead:

Thanks for the heads up. Added info to main post.

PGAG records are ignored in TESPathGrid's loading code. The editor writes and reads them, but I haven't done enough anolysis to know what is actually stored there.

Main post updated. Thanks for taking a look, ianpatt :goodjob:

Edit: Updated LVLI::DATA information. Any value other than 0 is equivalent to LVLF's "Calculate for each item in count" flag.

In a http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Tes4Mod:Mod_File_Format/DIAL, the QSTI subrecord is listed. However, there exists another that's not listed, which is supported by TES4Edit: QSTR. It holds the same data, a FormID for a QUST record. It's function appears to be to tell the engine to remove a topic from the specified quest(s).

Thanks! Added support for QSTRs to CBash.
