JFG Setup/Background Hacking

The bgfiles and setup files are found. Perhaps someone one day can make a level editor! JFG's format is fairly simple for setup files. Cooboyman is working on bgfiles, and found a beta level (bg at 00000000 offset). I worked on setups.

Setup format: Word at 0x00000000 is offset to last object header in each file. Setups are uncompressed. See below info, for level block, and bgfile/setup inside. Zip attached has in tabular format.
then start at offset 0xF, it's 4-byte header of ??IIIISS where IIII = model, SS = size of block (incl header). That's it! See attached documentation.

Level block
ROM CB2A80/RAM 801DC320 + (Level << 2) = 3368 for 2F
C01880 + offset + B1880 = CB6468 = CB3100 + offset = CB6468

0x60 4-bytes darkness
0x54 2-bytes BGFile 0028 (0 to 12C, 12D total), Offsets into CD2CE0 + (bgvalue << 2), (0xCD31A0 + F3470) for Forest Village Off
0x56 2-bytes props/start point 01C2 (0 to 325, 326 total) C529C0 + (setupvalue << 2), 124A0 for Forest Village Off
BA1DE0 + offset + B1880 = C65B00 = C53660 + offset = C65B00 for forest, sized 440 for this one




Warp Type (0B)
Offset + 0xB is warp (2-bytes, backwards order)

C65CC7 04 Object type?
C65CC8 2-bytes model digit (+ actions), seems to be new digits
C65CCA Object size (including header)
C65CCC/CE/D0 Door Position X,Y,Z
C65CD9 Open method
04 Vertical to floor forward
C65CDA Door Type (Message at least, not sure if real)
00 Unlocked
01 Life Force Door
02 Yellow Key Required
03 Red Key Required
04 Magenta Key Required
05 Green Key Required
06 Cyan Key Required
07 Lime Key Required
08 Purple Key Required
09 Tango Key Required
0A Lemon Key Required
0B Blue Key Required
0C Collect Tri-Rockets to Exit
0D and up? Nothing (won't open)
C65CDB Size
C65CDC Door Open Speed (lower faster)
C65CDD Door Open Speed? (lower faster)
C65CDE Height of Center or something like that
C65CDF Opacity (00 = black)

To parse, first word is pointer to last object begin, then objects start at F

Type 14 (Guys)
+ 0xF is text bank digit
