View source for Hact tev

hact_tev.bin is a file format that appears only in [[Modding Terms|OOE]] games.

It's present in HAct PAR files in the following path: hact/hact_all/(hact ID)/hact_tev.bin


hact_tev is responsible for:

* Storing a list of effects and their data and when they play in the HAct sequence
* These effects range from particles, sounds, damage, branch nodes and screen effects

When compared to the modern HAct cmn.bin that appears for the first time on [[Yakuza 5]], hact_tev is split into seperate sections:

* Objects
* Effects (Including Effect 1019)
* Effects (Without Effect 1019)

Objects reference other objects and effects, and essentially establish the hierarchy of the HAct.
