Game Save Specification
Header

12byte File ID (Always= FableSave!..)
4 Bytes - Offset to CRC (File is CRC'd from 0x0 until offset (Custom 32bit 1s Complement)
4 Bytes - Chunk 1 Decompressed size
4 Bytes - Chunk 2 Decompressed size
Chunk 1

4 Bytes - Chunk 1 Compressed Size
Zlib compression of Chunk 1 (78 DA) (Best Compression Option)
Header

7 Bytes = HEADER (NULL Terminated)
4 Bytes = Chunk Size (minus 7 byte header)

From here on out everything is passed by CRC values of Strings (see above). Xbox is only 1 byte while PC contains 4 (PC // below!)

SAVED_ENTITIES Compressed

The saved entities for each map are compressed using a weaker form of zlib And are preceded by 8 bytes NULL (5 for Xbox)//  for each map, if the map doesn't have anything saved then the header isn't present either (it will still pass Null // Bytes per map until the next is found) (Blank Tngs create entries but there is no data present). The maps go in order // based on the FinalAlbion.wld
