EarthBound/Map Data/Compressed Tile Animation Characters Data

Data blocks for storing compressed raw graphics for animated map tiles. Data for a given map tileset is found using the Map Data: Tile Animation Characters Pointer Table.

Format

Data for each map tileset is individually compressed. See Compression Format.

Tilesets with no animations are all the same 24 bytes, 8 repetitions of E7FF00 followed by the FF terminator. (This is simply the compressed format of 00 repeated 8192 (0x2000) times.)
