i currently try to unpack the BG:EE data for a special tool. But currently i didnt understand how the entries in the chitin.reg are linked to the different .bif Files. So it would be nice if someone can explain that to me.

Currently i use the following sides for getting informations:

    What specific areas are you having trouble with?

    The .key file contains a list of .bif files and a list of game resources. The last 12 bits of the game-resource structure act as an index into the .bif file list, indicating which .bif file the game-resource is in.

    ah sorry, i have figured it out. I have missed the fact, that the name of the bif files is in the reg file
