I'm writing my own Saved Game Editor for Final Fantasy VII and VIII and I need some information on where and how the different information is stored. I can't read C++ properly yet, so I just need someone to tell me. I actually had the name deciphering algorythm (if you can call it that) for FFVIII figured out but I lost it in a HDD crash. By the time I decided to resume the project, I had forgotten how.

Thanks in advance.
 
Hmm...

...all I remember is that the data in the FF8 save files is compressed, and you have to decompress it before you can do anything with it.  I believe that if you decompress it though, it wouldn't be too hard to figure out where some of the values are with a bit of experimenting and a hex editor.
 
Compressed, eh? Well, I'll have a look about in my hex-editor and see. The names were in a somewhat xor style of encryption, I think.
