Introduction

Acknowledgements

This body of work is due to Synide's sweat and tears. To whom, all honour and glory. Ably assisted by T_D and Mikero that further detailed the data and gave this article a more general and correct structure.

General

The general file format of a ArmA ODOL v40 p3d model file is similar to the ODOL v7 format. The major differences are that in ArmA models are

  • an optional model.cfg
  • resolutions are in reverse numerical order.

The order of resolutions denoted in the header portion of the file is not necessarily the numerical order of the resolutions. (often the 11,000 resolution is the last in the header array) The header resolutions need to be sorted in descending order. The resultant sorted array of resolutions is the order in which they appear in the file.

Type Description
byte 8 bit (1 byte)
tbool byte: 0 = false.
short 16 bit signed integer (2 bytes)
ushort 16 bit unsigned integer (2 bytes)
long 32 bit signed integer (4 bytes)
ulong 32 bit unsigned integer (4 bytes)
float 32 bit signed single precision floating point value (4 bytes)
asciiz Null terminated (0x00) variable length ascii string
Note that 'int' is not used in this documentation for the following reasons:
  • an 'int' is machine and compiler and language dependent. It is an arbitrary size SIGNED value.
  • with exceptions, BI use floats when requiring negative values.
  • almost all references to 'integers' in BI file formats are either positive-only offsets into memory, zero based indexes, and counts

File Paths

The PrefixRoot\ folder.

Life for modellers would be far less tedious if filenames could also be relative to the p3d they are encountered in. Altering or moving or renaming the pbo (and specifically it's prefix) would not alter the relative location of the paa's it contains.

BI choose to use hard-wired Pbo-Prefix-addressing ONLY.

All hardwired addressing is relative to a built-in-situ (ie virtual) PrefixRoot\ folder

Each and every pbo in Arma contains a unique identity name, a prefix. Irrespective of the name of the pbo, the prefixname is THE name of the pbo from the perspective of the engine. In most cases, the prefixname is, conveniently, the filename. One huge advantage of this mechanism, sorely sorely missed in OFP. is that self-documenting increasing revisions of an addonV123.pbo can be supplied to Arma, with no changes to the mission sqms and other pbos that refer to it.

The PrefixRoot\ folder contains the prefix names of all pbos encountered (almost) ANYWHERE.

Thus the pbos in the Official Addons folder, the Oem Mods\Addons folder(s), the Dta core and bin pbo's, are all examined for their unique prefix names. These prefix names become the dictionary index of where the pbo really is, AND, what filename it actually is.

Thus all filename references in a p3d, *unconditionally* contain a prefixname\someFile\SomeWhere.

In most cases they refer to the very same pbo as the containing p3d and a great pity that the extraneous information could not have been removed by (optional) relative addressing as it requires a great deal of fiddling about when modifying models.

Note also that there is some inconsistency in filename paths. Most do not have a leading \. Some, require it. Both are indeed \hardwired

An Example: 

P3dProxyName ="\ca\a10\agm65";

The immediate (and unfortunate) impression is that there is an A10 folder inside the official CA.pbo addon. In fact, the prefix of the A10.pbo = "ca\A10". Thus this reference is to the A10.pbo within which, is a agm65.p3d in it's root folder. (and again, this reference is in fact an extraneous reference to itself since the referring p3d (A10.p3d) is in the same pbo)

   XYZTriplet  RotationMatrix[3];
   XYZTriplet  Translation;
   ulong       Indices[4];
 }

This structure is (almost) identical to ODOL7 except it has 4 indices rather than 2.

LodUsedBone

LodUsedBone
{
  ulong nIDs;         //range 0..3
  ulong BoneID[nIDs];
}

This struct seems to assign unique iterative IDs (starting from zero) to some bones or their anims. Quite weird way of doing that, so it is probably not the whole truth.

LodPointProperties

LodPointProperties
{
 ulong  NoOfPts;
 tbool  UseDefault;
 if (UseDefault)
  ulong DefaultValue;
 else // =0
  ulong PropertyValues[NoOfPts]; // potentially compressed
}

PropertyValues for NoOfPts are either all the same (UseDefault), or, they are individually declared.

Similar to CompressedStructs of OdolV7, if the amount of data in the array exceeds 1023 bytes, that array is compressed.

The use of a) potential compression and b) a default fill, is endemic to many ODOLV40 type packets.

LodMaterial

   //Basically... A direct replication of the information in the given .rvmat file

 {
   asciiz            RvMatName;     // "ca\characters\data\soldier_captive_hhl.rvmat"
   ulong             Type;          // 9 == Arma, 10==VBS2
   D3DCOLORVALUE     Emissive;
   D3DCOLORVALUE     Ambient;
   D3DCOLORVALUE     Diffuse;
   D3DCOLORVALUE     forcedDiffuse;
   D3DCOLORVALUE     Specular;
   D3DCOLORVALUE     Unknown;       //Usually same as Specular
   float             SpecularPower;
   ulong             PixelShaderId; //See enumPixelShaderId
   ulong             VertexShaderId;//See enumVertexShaderId
   ulong             BoolFlag;      //mostly 1 otherwise 0
   ulong             AnIndex;       //0,1 or 2
   asciiz            BiSurfaceName; // "ca\data\Penetration\plastic.bisurf"
   ulong             Always0x01;
   ulong             aCount;        //Generally 0
   ulong             nTextures;
   ulong             nTransforms;   // always same as nTextures
   LodStageTexture   StageTextures  [nTextures];
   LodStageTransform StageTransforms[nTransforms]; 
 }
There is always one default Texture and Transform as the first entry.
It is the only entry if a SurfaceName exists.
D3DCOLORVALUE
D3DCOLORVALUE
{
  float r,g,b,a;
}
LodStageTexture
LodStageTexture
{
 ulong  TextureFilter; // mostly 3, sometimes 0
 asciiz PaaTexture;    // "ca\characters\data\civil_tvreport_body_as.paa
                       // alternatively "#(argb,8,8,3)color(0,0,0,1,CO)" (eg)
 ulong  StageID;       // zero based
};
The StageID is iterative (linear sequential). 1st entry is 0, 2nd 1, 3rd 2, etc.
TextureFilter maybe 1 of the following values.
  • 0: Point
  • 1: Linear
  • 2: TriLinear
  • 3: Anisotropic (default)
LodStageTransform
  LodStageTransform
  {
   ulong UVSource;
   float Transform[4][3];//a DirectX texture space transform matrix
  };

LodEdge

LodEdge
{
 ulong   nEdges;
 ushort  Edges[nEdges]; // potentially compressed
};

LodPolygons

LodPolygons
{
 ulong   NoOfPolygons;
 ulong   OffsetToSectionsStruct;       // see below
 ushort  AlwaysZero;
 PolygonVertice
 {
   byte   NoOfVertices;                // 3 or 4
   ushort VerticesIndex[NoOfVertices]; // 0-based index into Vertices Arrays
 }PolygonVertices[NoOfPolygons];
}

Note that there are always 3, or 4, vertices.

  • 3 point vertices describe a triangle.
  • 4 point vertices describe a rectangle.

The indices must be transformed as follows

  • triangles  : 1st posn, 2nd posn, 0th posn.
  • quadrangles : 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 0th


Because of the variable amount of vertices in this struct (3 or 4), OffsetToSectionsStruct is used to skip the block. It's value is relative to the first PolygonVertice and is computed as follows
   OffsetToSectionsStruct= NoOfPolygons * (SizeofEach (PolygonVertice));

Each PolygonVertice is 

nOfVertices *sizeof(ushort) + sizeof(ushort); // always 8 or 10

This, is in fact, an ERROR because the type size of the NoOfVertices is byte, NOT ushort. Hence the REAL offset is 

RealOffsetToSectionsStruct = OffsetToSectionsStruct - NoOfPolygons *(sizeof(ushort)- sizeof(byte) );

or, to put it more simply 

RealOffsetToSectionsStruct = OffsetToSectionsStruct - NoOfPolygons;

NOTE: See discussions for actual nature of this value

LodSection

LodSection

 else
  float                        UV[nVertices][2];   // potentially compressed
}

The structure either contains a single UV pair of floats. Or, pairs of UV floats for all positions (nVertices)

If a full array is declared (DefaultFill != 0) then that array is compressed if 2 * sizeof(float) * nVertices > 1023

   float  Unknown[2];         // probably a vertices something

Decompression

In ODOL v40 format files some of the datastructures present in the file are compressed by using a form of LZ compression. Unlike pbo compression, in ArmA model files, one only knows the number of items to decompress, the expected output size (in bytes) and the expected checksum. With this information and the size of a given data item one has the necessary information to expand the data to it's original format and size.


Note:- Data structures that are identified as being compressible will only be compressed if the 'expectedSize' is >= 1024 bytes.


The code that follows is written in C# and may or may not be optimal or correct.


As an example if one was expanding the array of vertices positions...

  • A vertex is described by it's x,y,z coordinates which are floats. A float is a 32bit (4 byte) number.
  • If we were processing 1968 vertices then our expected output size would be 1968 * (3 * 4) = 23,616 bytes.

This 'expectedSize' is the only necessary information one would need to pass to a processing sub-routine or function.

Material Stages

The number of material stages is dependant on the type of Shader that is used to process the material by the ArmA game engine. A reference table is used when processing materials where depending on the shader specified the given number of stages should be processed.

refShaderStages { int PixelShaderId; int NoOfStages; };
