EG
appearance/lod/con_gen_organic_hide.lod<NULL>
or
appearance/mesh/con_newbie_crate.msh<NULL>

This file contains the items or objects are associated with another object.  

Example: Spawning a Basic Camp from shared_scout_camp_s01.iff calls the 
Client Data File shared_scout_camp_s01.cdf that contains the items that are spawned
automatically.  2 Torches, cot, stove, 2 pots, and the tent.  Any other items that are 
needed will have to be spawn manually.  Normally these are items that the player can
interact with.  Example Chairs, terminals.

Client Effect Files are used to bundle Sound (.SND) and Particle Effect (.PRT) files together.

File chain:
/clienteffect/<filename>.cef
/appearance/<filename>.prt
or
/sound/<filename>.snd

CFG Files provide setting and control information to the client. 

Structure:
[Header Option]
Setting=Boolean

NOTE: Boolean = True or False in the form of a 0 (false) and 1 (true), so to enable a setting would be
Setting=1
And to disable it (setting it to false) would be
Setting=0

DirectDraw Surface File (texture)

Notes for working with .DDS Files.
* Always use interpolated alpha when working with this file.
* Always save as a DXT5 Compression.
* .SHT files are the texture containers that link to all the 'textures' (Spec/Bump/Normal/Lookup/Main/etc) 
and also palettes (2 palettes max per .SHT file).
* .SHT files use .EFT (HLSL containers) files for the actual shaders, so a link to them is also included.
* 'Tags' inside .SHT and .EFT files are shortened to 4 characters and are reversed, such as NIAM = Main, etc.
 A list of what most mean can be found here. Those are all the tags that exist in the files.
* .MGN/.MSH files are model files which will link to .SHT files (Middle to bottom of the file if opened with treExplorer),
 sometimes models have more than one texture, so if you can't find all, look there.

 - The first DATA record contains 2-bytes.  The first byte is an unsigned char that represents
the number of IMPL Forms in the file.  The 2nd byte is currently unknown.

 - The PVSH form contains a record of 0000 which contains the full path of an HLSL vertex shader
program.

 - The PPSH form contain a 0001 form which contains 1 DATA record and a variable number of PTXM
forms.  The DATA record is made up of 1 unsigned char (which indicates the number of PTXM records)
followed by the full path of an HLSL pixel shader program.

 - Each PTXM form contains one 0002 record.  The first byte of which is an unsigned char followed
by a 4 char texture tag name.

http://www.szonye.com/bradd/iff.html - Overview of File Format
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/power/library/pa-spec16/ - alternative Overview

IFF Files are made up of Chunk(s). Each Chunk follows the format:

Type (4 x Char)
Size (32 Bit Int Big-Endian)
Data (Length determined by Size)

(NOTE: Data lengths which are odd numbers are padded by a '0' which is not included in the Size (for 2 byte alignment) 
however, SOE *seems* to have ignored this requirement)

Chunks can contain other (child) Chunks, or even complete .IFF Files.

IFF Files must start with types of either: 'FORM' (0x464F524D), 'LIST' (0x4C495354) or 'CAT ' (0x43415420).

Strictly speaking, IFF Files must have a single Root Chunk in the file to keep to the Standard,
however it is expected that Top Level Chunk may potentially co-exist in SOEs IFFs.

It is currently believed that all SOE IFFs start with FORM (LIST and CAT not required).

FORM Types are basically storage (Record) for other proprietary Chunks.

Every SOE FORM has an additional 32bit Sub Type taking up offsets 8-11 ie:
Type (4 x Char)
Size (32 Bit Int Big-Endian)
Sub-Type (4x Char)
Data (Length determined by Size)

This means, for SOE FORMs, the data starts at offset 12, and is Size-4 long.

~ Known SOE Proprietary Chunks ~
CRCT - List of 32bit SOE CRCs, no delimeter
STNG - List of Strings, delimited by 0x00
DATA - Some sort of Value. In Lists it appears to be an item count
STRT - Hash Table IDs, 32bit, no delimeter
EMAP - List of 3 No. Strings, delimited by 0x00. Appear to be Event Related. "EventSource\0EventDestination\0ClientEffect"
0000 - List of Strings (generally Filenames), delimited by 0x00

~ Example ~
An Example SOE .IFF (Misc\planet_crc_string_table.iff)

*FORM (Length 512, Subtype 0000 [0x30303030])

**CRCT (Length 100)
**STRT (Length 100)
**STNG (Length 272)

What is an ILF file?

An Interior layout file or ILF is an SWG hexadecimal file that contains information on the position of objects relative to the selected interior space/cell. TREE has inbuilt functions to assist with these files, The ILF editor will open when the 'Edit File' button is clicked.

The ILF editor has two panes, the navigation pane and the editing pane.

The editing pane has 3 sections; the object information section, the coordinates section and the rotation section.


Opening an ILF

An ILF can be opened through the use of the file pane when a TRE/TOC is loaded. If a TRE/TOC is not loaded, an external ILF can be loaded through the 'Open IFF/ILF/WS' dialog.

Navigating an ILF's nodes

TREE is developed to be user friendly and similar to the Windows Explorer interface, An ILF node can be navigated through the use of the keyboard or mouse.

Mouse

Clicking once on a FORM node will expand it, clicking on a sub-node will open it in the editing pane, in larger ILFs there may also be scroll bars at the side and bottom of the navigating pane. ILF nodes do not have drag and drop editing as the order of nodes does not matter.

Keyboard
Using the left and right arrow keys on a FORM node will expand and collapse it respectively. Using the Up and down arrow keys will navigate through sub-nodes, pressing the left arrow key with a sub-node selected will cause the FORM node it is in to collapse.

Adding an ILF node

ILF nodes may be added through the use of a keyboard shortcut (Check article 'Shortcuts') or by using the 'Add Node' button located above the navigation pane.

Deleting an ILF node

ILF nodes may be removed through the use of a keyboard shortcut (Check article 'Shortcuts') or by using the 'Remove Node' button located above the navigation pane when a node is selected.

Modifying an ILF node's Value
Object Information
This contains two editable values; Object and Cell.
The Object box is for the objects IFF's file path.
The Cell box is for the particular cell where the object will be placed inside an interior, a cell name can be found in game by pressing CTRL+SHIFT+G.

Coordinates
The Coordinates section has three editable values; The X axis value, the Y axis value and the Z axis value. These control the position of the item relative to the cell/interior space.

Rotation
The Rotation section contains 3 editable values; Pitch, Yaw and Roll. It also contains one button which will launch the matrix calculator.

Saving an ILF
ILFs are normally saved under the SWG root in the interior layout file. For example C:\Program Files/StarWarsGalaxies/Interiorlayout/

    *  This file, like most SWG files, is based on the IFF format.
    * This overview will skip going into detail about the IFF format in general and focus purely on the organization of the LOD form.
    * If a Form/Record appears multiple times I will only define it the first time, unless its structure differs.
    * This file format is still being explored, so take this information as a guide and realize that some assumptions made here may be incorrect or missing details.

This file, like most SWG files, is based on the IFF format.
This overview will skip going into detail about the IFF format in general and focus purely on the organization of the MESH form.
If a Form/Record appears multiple times I will only define it the first time, unless its structure differs.
This file format is still being explored, so take this information as a guide and realize that some assumptions made here may be incorrect or missing details.
If you discover something I missed or have an error correction, please send a message Xunil on the swgemu forums.

Vertex index
Before reading the vertex indices the bytes per index needs to be computed.
BPI = (INDX record size - 4)/numIndices.
After the bpi is computed, the rest of the record is a series of unsigned short or unsigned int values that reference the vertices defined in the vertex DATA record.
So index 0,1,2 = triangle 0, index 3,4,5 = triangle 1, ...

Secondary Vertex index
Number of matrix/index/triangle sets: 32-bit unsigned int.
Matrix/index/triangle set.
Rotations? - 3 32-bit floats.
Number of indices: - 32-bit unsigned int.
Index: Same datatype as primary vertex index.

Note: Sometimes it may have an extra FORM inside SMATFORM which will not be added to this documentation for now.


0003INFO:
Structure:
<4 Byte> <4 Bytes> <1 Byte>

First 4 Bytes Represents how many lmg's there will be in the MSGN Format (LMG's link to MGN's)
Next 4 Bytes Represent How many Skeletons there are in the SKTI Format
Last Represents if a LATX Exists or not (00 or 01), if it doesn't then the LATX FORM Isn't needed.

MSGN:
File Path to the Appearance with a NULL Terminator
EG
appearance/mesh/bocatt_hue.lmg<NULL>

SKTI:
Links the Skeleton in and has a reference to the part of the body the Skeleton affects.
EG (note this has 2 Skeletons in)
appearance/skeleton/all_b.skt<NULL><NULL>appearance/skeleton/hum_m_face.skt<NULL>head<NULL>

The Face Skeleton only affects the head and is mentioned, where all_b.skt affects the entire body so its left "blank"


LATX:
First 2 bytes represent how many LATS & Skeletons will be in the file.
This Example has two (first two bytes are 02 00)

appearance/skeleton/all_b.skt<NULL>appearance/lat/all_m.lat<NULL>
appearance/skeleton/hum_m_face.skt<NULL>appearance/lat/hum_m_face.lat<NULL>


Links the Skeleton up with the Animation List.

SFK - Usually Used in Sound Forge/Sony Vegas

Only exists in data_other and patch_01


Probably only there due to someone forgetting to "clean" it out when packing it (Suggested by someone else, makes the most sense)

It contains all the game's strings. During network communications the strings are identificated with: filename without extension + code + ansi string id.

Header:
[int]      // STF file type header id (sequence: 0xCD 0xAB 0x00 0x00, value: 0x0000ABCD = 43981)
[byte]     // useless? flag (might be a boolean, seen so far: 0x01 and 0x00)
[int]      // next free index in file to add an item, always > items count (useless for us)
[int]      // items count

Then items list, for each:
[int]      // item index in the file (eg: 1, 2, 9, 3, 7, ...) 
[int]      // code (gesture?)
[int]      // unicode digits count of the sentence (eg: 11)
[u_string] // 2 bytes per char (eg: "hello world" is 11 digits long, 22 bytes total)

Then item's string ids, for each:
[int]      // item index in the file matching one in previous list (eg: 1, 2, 9, 3, 7, ...)
[int]      // ascii digits count of the string id (eg: 12)
[a_string] // 1 byte per char (eg: "basic_answer" is 12 digits long, 12 bytes total)
