Question about dat-man and editing

Post by navyguy445 »

I used dat_man to unpack the master.dat file. When I look for the world
maps I see the following

wrldmp00.msk
wrldmp04.msk
wrldmp08.msk
wrldmp12.msk
wrldmp13.msk
wrldmp16.msk
wrldmp17.msk

I thought the world maps had a file extention of .frm Did I do
something wrong in unpacking??

They're the bitmasks which tell wether you can walk or not on a specific pixel in the map.

The worldmap are indeed a bunch of FRMs.
