I. Differences from normal CUEs

Lagdou, Valni and the Skirmishes use a different format when loading units, it's not entirely random as it once was thought. It's actually pretty fixed, and thus you can control it once you know how it works. This opens a lot of new possiblities.

First of all you have to know when the Alternate format kicks in and when the Standard format perseveres (AF and SF). Very simple. Before I continue I'll post some labels for easier understanding:

0x5F - Monster Boss

0xAA - Monster/ Zombie

0xAB - Monster/ Mummy

0xAC - Monster/ Skeleton

0xAD - Monster/ Skeleton (Bow)

0xAE - Monster/ Hellbone

0xAF - Monster/ Hellbone (Bow)

0xB0 - Monster/ Bael

0xB1 - Monster/ Elder Bael

0xB2 - Monster/ Cyclops

0xB3 - Monster/ Mouthdog

0xB4 - Monster/ Cerberus

0xB5 - Monster/ Tarvos

0xB6 - Monster/ McDaire

0xB7 - Monster/ Mogall

0xB8 - Monster/ Arch Mogall 0xB9 - Monster/ Gorgon Egg

0xBA - Monster/ Gorgon Egg

0xBB - Monster/ Gargoyle

0xBC - Monster/ Deathgoyle

0xBD - Monster/ Dracozombie

Those are the pointers used in all LVSs (Lagdou/Valni/Skirmish). These basically determine what will come out, but it's not entirely tied to that.

Now to determine if it's Standard or Alternate, just check the Class Hex and if the unit has anything specific equipped. For example:

Unit Hex: 0xAA / Zombie

Class Hex: 0x52 (Revenant)

Level, Coordinates and other pointers follow

Slot 1: 0xAD (Rotten Claw)

^ This is Standard, it will load exactly what it says ^

Unit Hex: 0xB9 / Gorgon Egg

Class Hex: 0x17 (Assasin)

Level, Coordinates and other pointers follow

Slots 1-4: 0x00 Separator

^ This will load a Gorgon with Demon Surge ^

Do you get this? When the Item Slots are filled with separators (0x00) and the Class Hex does not match the monster hex, it is Alternate formated.

Those are all the only differences. Hopefully I've made myself clear. Now on to the specific notes.
