Overall

byte:     8 bits unsigned
char:     8 bit ascii character
char[]:   fixed length string
asciiz:   null terminated char string
asciiz[]: fixed length null terminated
ulong:    unsigned integer 32bit. 4 bytes
ushort:   unsigned short integer 16bit 2 bytes
float:    4 bytes
Note that potentically compressed arrays in these structures only have an known output length.
the decompressor therefore must work on infinite input length.

VerticesStruct

 VerticesStruct
 { 
   CompressedStruct Attribs
   {
    ulong Count;
    ulong Attribs[Count];     // if > 255 then array is compressed 
   }
   CompressedStruct UVset

 }

TableStruct

struct TableStruct
{
 CompressedStruct Table1
 {
  ulong  Count;
  ushort Table1[Count];// if > 511 array compressed   
 }
 CompressedStruct Table2
 {
  ulong  Count;        // this Count is same value as any Vertices.Count
  ushort Table2[Count];// > 511 then array is compressed 
 }
}

Tables are used to join vertices. Each face has got 3 or 4 vertices that are unique for each face Eg. Every vertex is owned only by 1 face.

MLODvertexindex = Table1[ Table2[ODOLvertexindex] ];

NamedStruct

NamedStruct
{
 CompressedStruct Selection
 {
  ulong  Count;
  struct NamedSelection[Count];
 }
 CompressedStruct Properties
 {
  ulong  Count;
  struct NamedPropeties[Count]
 }
}


NamedSelection

struct NamedSelection
{
 asciiz name;
 CompressedStruct Vertices
 {
  ulong  Count;                  // if > 511 then array is compressed
  ushort Vertices[Count];
 }
 CompressedStruct UnknownUshort
 {
  ulong   Count;                 // if > 511 then array is compressed
  ushort  Unknown[Count];
 }
 CompressedStruct UnknownUlong
 {
  ulong Count;                    // if > 255 then array is compressed
  ulong Unknown[Count];
 }
 byte Unknown; 
 CompressedStruct UnknownUlong2
 {
  ulong Count;                    // if etc
  ulong Unknown[Count];
 }
 CompressedStruct Faces
 {
  ulong Count;                    // if etc
  ushort Faces[Count];
 }
 CompressedStruct UnknownByte
 {
  ulong Count;                    // if etc
  byte Unknown[Count];
 }
};

Faces

  struct Face
    {
      ulong  Attribs;
      ushort TextureIndex; //if ((int)TextureIndex==-1) no texture;
      byte   Count;  // 3 or 4
      ushort VerticesIndex[Count]; //! size of array is not constant.
    };

CompressedStruct

a compressed struct is such that if the Count * sizeof data type is > 1023 then lzh compression is used

Thus,

  • ulong arrays = > 255
  • float[2] = > 127
  • etc

Proxi

  struct Proxi
    {
      char Name[...] // zero ended  string
      float rotationMatrix[9];
      float translation[3];
    };

ustruct

  struct ustruct // unknown value
    {
      uint uvalue8;// unknown value
      uint uvalue9;// unknown value
      char uarray[12*uvalue9];// unknown value :-( i know nothing about it
    };

NamedPropeties

  struct NamedPropeties
    {
      char Name[...];
      char Value[...]; // 'n','o','s','h','a','d','o','w','\0','1','\0'...
    };

LZ in ODOL

Lempel-Ziv compression

Note1.

Regardless of method, 4 extra bytes representing the checksum exist at end of the data count.

Note2. The compression code is identical to that employed by pbo packed structures. However, unlike pbo's, the size of the compressed data is unknown, only it's ultimate length. The code below fudges it.
