ha! didnt think of that. thats a good place for me to start. i was trying to figure out where some of those EA hidden files could be...maybe there. thank you!

EDIT:
so here's my findings and where i'm stuck
i go to the sgsm folder then common and open up xplrtext.viv with bigGUI
i export plrdetails.fsh
i open plrdetails.fsh with FshX...in a split second i can see multiple files in it...but the program gets a runtime error and crashes...
so i try and open with DOLFFIN...it stays open and i can read all the file names inside. however all the images are distorted/snowly and i cant tell what it is exactly
all the file names follow a consistent pattern of "l" or "r" (left or right) then a letter and up to 4 digits....that second part (letter and 4 digits) match similar records in the .dbf's of accessory databases! by glancing at tattoos only so far i know that there are some in there that are not used in the .dbf's.
anyways my main problem is i can tell what each one is since i dont have a program that will open up the images correctly...
so help?
