Model Pointcloud is a fileformat used since Sonic Frontiers, that's used to create terrains using a collection of points with resource names.
File Format
This is one of the many BINA file formats, meaning it's very easily memory-mappable.
The structure of this format is very simple, it contains a signature "CPIC", the version "2" (no instances have been found with the version 1) and the list of points itself.
The structure of a point is
- Instance name, to easily differentiate between different points.
- Resource Name, to set the model name of the point.
- Position, straight forward.
- Rotation, straight forward.
- Scale, straight forward.
- Unknown value.
