[[Category:File formats]]
This page documents the format of DARC.

== Overview ==

DARC files are archives. Containers of files.

This is very similiar to NARC (the DS archives).

== ARC header ==
{| class="wikitable" border="1"
!  Offset !!  Size !! Type !!  Description
|-
|  0x000 || 4 || char[4] || Magic Number 'darc'
|-
|  0x004 || 2 || uint16 || Endianess (=0xFFFE: Little)
|-
|  0x006 || 2 || uint16 || Header's length
|-
|  0x008 || 4 || uint32 || Version
|-
|  0x00C || 4 || uint32 || File's length
|-
|  0x010 || 4 || uint32 || [[DARC#File_table|File table]] offset (from the beginning of the file)
|-
|  0x014 || 4 || uint32 || [[DARC#File_table|File table]] length
|-
|  0x018 || 4 || uint32 || [[DARC#Files_data|Files data]] offset
|}

=== File table ===

The file table starts at 0x01C.

Each file struct consists of 3 uint32:
{| class="wikitable" border="1"
!  Offset !!  Size !! Type !!  Description
|-
|  0x000 || 4 || uint32 || File name offset (from the end of the table) 

if (offset & 0x01000000) then this is a folder (i.e. first two nodes 'null' & '.')
|-
|  0x004 || 4 || uint32 || File offset
|-
|  0x008 || 4 || uint32 || File length
|}

* Folder's length is end-index of the folder in the table.
