In this thread I'll post results of my research on Stars! files structure. My research is based on work/research of other peoples, so here the credits and my thanks:
* PaulCr - initial knowledge and about 40% files structure were taken from his work. Definitely his work gives me the main keys to what I know now.
* wasp - unvaluable help with events structure and messages table as well as some hints on where to search on serial stuff.
* craebild - for his Wheel of Life game series, which were my first real expirience in applying my research results and modifying Stars! files not just reads them. Wheel of Life IV brings to life m/h files merges (as well as several other tools) and Wheel of Life V brings up stars mover.
* Ron - for giving me access to some nice & fat game files.
* Micha - for finding "Penta Block".
* Kotk and Captin Maim - for sharing their knowledge.
And of cause BlueTurbit, donjon, gible, ma.stars, Marduk (sorry if I forget somebody) - for your input, ideas, comments and objections. Wink
