    Default How do you run rvforest.dat in a readable, editable format?

    Before I go on to ask my question I realize it's poor taste to make your first post a topic but I really want to get this project out of the way.

    For quite some time I've been wanting to write a program similar to the popular Anicro Desapro, however I want to be able to have my program take the converted pattern information and replace it inside of an Animal Crossing save file. I've extracted the save file however I can't read the darned thing and am have no idear what the popular method of reading the file is.

    I assume that the pattern information is stored in the .dat file, but I wanted to know what the method for extracting it in a readable format is. I know that programs such as PattView and the AC Toolkit actively modify this file but I want to know how they were read in the first place.

    Any help on the matter would be appreciated.

    Everything you'll ever need to know about patterns. PattView also already has a way to convert ACS to PAT files and import them to your gamesave.
