In post 1 of Fire Emblem 10 Modding, we delved into the structure of the ISO and locations of key files that we care about. One of these files was FE10Data.cms, which contains a substantial amount of data that we want to modify.

This post will describe FE10Data.cms's sub-sections in more detail, as they were brushed over in post 1. It should act as a decent reference for anyone who plans to modify this file.

One of my favourite games is Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, the tenth installment in the Fire Emblem series. A couple of months ago, after playing through the game more than half a dozen times, I decided to try modding the game. I was surprised to see the lack of such a community for FE10.

This blog post will be post 1 of a series of blog posts on Fire Emblem 10 Modding. In this post, we will delve into the structure of the ISO and locations of key files that we care about.

Recently, as part of my company's fitness plan, I bought the HidrateSpark smart water bottle to track water intake. The water bottle itself was pretty interesting — using a capacitative sensor to measure water levels. The associated smartphone app, however, was horrible. As a privacy enthusiast, I was concerned with what sorts of data they were collecting, given the weird quirks in their app during my first interaction with it.

In this post, we'll take a look at reversing their app, and subsequently their API server, the end goal being to replace the upstream API server entirely.
