Shockwave .DCR file format

These are some WIP notes on the Shockwave .DCR file format.

Format

• 0000-0003: RIFX (little) or XFIR (big)
• 0004-0007: Size of file minus 8, always little-endian (? was LE on a BE file (Hannah and the Ice Caves))
• 0008-000b: MDGF (? for BE -- assuming this is FGDM for LE?)
• 000c-000f: revF (Fver for LE?)
• 0010-001f: Binary data, followed by a human-readable version string (for HatIC: 0f8a 0101 8e3a 0938 2e35 2e31 2331 3034 .....:.8.5.1#104)
• 0020-0023: rdcF (Fcdr for LE?)

Fcdr is then followed by a variable-length integer. This appears to mark the compressed size of the following data. On HatIC, this is 0x813a, which becomes 0xba (186 decimal) according to the following algorithm.

public int ReadVarInt()
{
    int value = 0;
    byte b;
    do
    {
        b = ReadByte();
        value = (value << 7) + (b & 0x7F);
    }
    while (b >> 7 != 0);
    return value;
}

The tool offzip decompresses this to 257 bytes of data.
