assets.bin is a file from Diddy Kong Racing DS that contains all the game's models and textures.
File Format
The file byte order is always little endian.
Header
The file starts with a header that is 4 bytes long.
| Offset | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 0x00 | UInt16 | Number of assets (N). The value is 0x901 (2305). |
| 0x02 | Byte[2] | Padding. |
| 0x04 | End of header, start of Asset ID List | |
Asset ID List
This is a list of all the asset IDs from the game. The purpose of indexing them is because that's how they're linked in LEV files and other internal files.
| Offset | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 0x00 | UInt16[N] | Asset IDs. |
| 0x00 + 2 * N | Byte[2] | Padding. |
| 0x02 + 2 * N | End of this section, start of Entry List | |
Entry List
Followed by the Asset ID List, there's a list of offsets and sizes for each of the assets. All offsets are absolute.
| Offset | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 0x00 | Int32 | Offset to asset data. |
| 0x04 | Int32 | Asset size. |
Asset Data
Each asset consists of a header with some information and the file data.
| Offset | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| 0x00 | Byte | Compression type:
|
| 0x01 | Byte[3] | Unknown flags. It is only known that they contain information about what type of data is stored. |
| 0x04 | Int32 | Uncompressed size. |
| 0x08 | End of this section, start of file data | |
