In <code>Pack/Bootup.pack/GameData/savedataformat.ssarc/saveformat_*.bgsvdata</code>, the game stores a mapping for each ID to the corresponding entry name. This name is then further defined in one of the files in <code>Pack/Bootup.pack/GameData/gamedata.ssarc/*</code>, depending on its data type.

Strings are stored with the maximum possible number of characters (e.q. 256 characters for strings defined in string256_data_0.bgdata) and are broken up into 4-byte parts. These are then stored in sequential chunks with the ID repeating for each chunk.

For arrays the data is also stored in sequential chunks, each with an identical ID. The horse names for example will take up 96 chunk with the ID 0x7B74E117 in the save file, 6 names with 16 chunks (= 64 characters) for each name.

Data types for <code>value</code> include bool, int32, float32, string, string64, string256, vector2f, vector3f, vector4, bool_array, int32_array,  float32_array, string64_array, string256_array, vector2f_array, and vector3f_array.

Value types are read as, and therefore must correspond to, the type defined in the <code>Pack/Bootup.pack//GameData/gamedata.ssarc/*</code> in the key of the main byml dictionary where the <code>id</code> is found. (Note that, in the vanilla game, this also corresponds to the name of the file, itself, but this relationship is not strict and therefore may not be the case for files added by mods.)


Inventory items are stored in <code>PorchItem</code> with a maximum of 420 internal string identifiers, e.g. <code>Weapon_Sword_023.</code>Associated arrays of <code>PorchEquip</code>: boolean and <code>PorchItem_Value1: int32</code> store if the item is equipped and its current durability * 100 or item count.  Swords, Bows and Shields also store their modifier key in <code>PorchSword_FlagSp: in32</code> and modifier value <code>PorchSword_ValueSp: int32</code>.  Similar Flag and Value exist for the Bows and Shields. <code>FlagSp</code> modifiers can take any or all of the following values.
