CMX skins/acessories file format

[francot514]

I have found this in the Edith version of The Sims 1, the cmx file format is completely readable, so will be easy to understand it and create a parser for the skins accessories.

CMX File:
    int32 skeletonCount;
    Skeleton skeletons[skeletonCount];
    int32 suitCount;
    Suit suits[suitCount];
    int32 skillCount;
    Skill skills[skillCount];

Skeleton:
    CountedString name;
    int32 boneCount;
    Bone bones[boneCount];

Bone:
    CountedString name;
    CountedString parentName;
    int32 hasProps;
        ? Props prop;
    float trans[3];
    float rot[4];
    int32 canTranslate;
    int32 canRotate;
    int32 canBlend;
    int32 canWiggle;
    int32 wigglePower;

Real smooth francot.

The code is really more complex, but i do not liked to add all the documentation find out, there some cmx files could use up to 1000 lines!!!
