Oh... OK, then. Thanks. I just wanted to make sure.
What exactly is a file header?
Just be sure to notice one of the extremely important details often overlooked by beginners:
001Eh 1 byte Version number
File versions, or knowing what version the format uses, is vitally important.
Very frequently during development and during updates you may add a value, remove a value, or change a value's meaning. You absolutely need a version number in the file so you can update the data to whatever the latest and greatest needs to be, or to block a file from a future edition from loading if you won't recognize the contents.
