Leftover Source Files

This is a sub-page of Super Mario Galaxy 2.

To do:
More formats mentioned here (but without file paths). One filepath here.

Presumably by accident, the developers left in some uncompiled source data files during the conversion progress. These reveal interesting information such as source file structure, actual file format, date of creation and author.

TwisterSanSlim.arc/ActorInfo/#SandstormParam.csv##

StepStorm:Int:0,StepChance:Int:0,StepEndPrepare:Int:0,StepEnd:Int:0,StepSpin:Int:0,SensorMin:Float:0.0,SensorHeight:Float:0.0,SizeUpRate:Float:0.0,BindHeight:Float:0.0,BindFlip:Float:0.0,BindVacuum:Float:0.0,BindRise:Float:0.0,BindUpRate:Float:0.0,BindDownRate:Float:0.0,BindMissV:Float:0.0,BindMissH:Float:0.0
55,60,30,100,30,50,850,0.2,650,25,1.4,10,10,-1,10,0.1

A CSV file that specifies individual sandstorm parameters for Slim Galactic Tornadoes (TwisterSanSlim). Most notably, it consists of fields that have been removed from the final file: StepChance, StepEndPrepare, StepSpin, BindVacuum, BindRise, BindUpRate, BindDownRate, BindMissV and BindMissH. On the other hand, it lacks some fields: StepAdjust, StepFix, SpiralRot and SpiralRadius.
