Root file format detection and binary parsing. Root file binary parser.

Supports three root file formats used across WoW versions:

  • Legacy (pre-8.2) - no header, blocks start at offset 0.
  • MFST V1 (8.2 - 11.0.x) - MFST magic header, 12-byte block headers.
  • MFST V2 (11.1.0+) - MFST magic header, 17-byte block headers with restructured content flags.

Each root file is organized as a series of blocks, where each block shares a common set of locale and content flags. Within a block, FileDataIDs are stored as delta-encoded integers followed by parallel arrays of CKeys and (optionally) name hashes.

Structs§

RootEntry
A single root file entry mapping a CKey to flags/locale/name hash.
