Notes and Comments

• This format might use a technique similar o the indexing in the Unreal engine?
• The most probable explaination of the archive format is that the directory entries are encrypted, and that each directory entry stores the filename of the file. This would explain the different sized directory entries.
• There is a repeating pattern of bytes that appear in the directory, in the arrangement 33,243,6,50,30. It is possible that this is a repeating key - if so then it probably repeats over and over, but pauses when reading the entry size field.
• Also, by looking at some of the files, it is probable that some files are encrypted using byte 90 (Z)
