Difference between revisions of "Piñata Vision barcode/ID table"

Revision as of 11:06, 3 February 2011

IDs are provided by the trailing number in the filename. Values marked with ?? are guesses as to what the missing information might be.

The set is likely a particular obfuscation that the game has used for that barcode, apparently directly identified by the first and last character of the first row's barcode. Note that the obfuscations alternate in groups of four/eight/..., leading to a way to predict a missing card's obfuscation set. It's likely that the selected obfuscation for a card is based on a modulo/remainder of the ID.

(Note that the table still refers to 2- (first and last) character obfuscation sets. Sets like 96 or C6 should be considered to be the same obfuscation set 6.)

The IDs appear to share a common field in the data, independent of the card type (e.g., GoodVariants, Blackariants, PlaceTag). Within the ID table itself, the first hundred or so (Blackariants) IDs (3 - 160 at first glance) correspond to species (IDs). This allows a variety of cards to efficiently refer to a particular species (e.g., unlock concept art for species 3).

It's not known yet whether the table is sparse, or if the missing IDs correspond to actual items for unreleased cards. It's likely that some cards have not been released. (Perhaps 208 is an Egg_dinosaur? Perhaps 719 is an amber gem?) Another possibility is that some pinatas or items were cut from the game.

Unlisted IDs

Based on decoded IDs from the barcodes (see the obfuscation set article for specifics), the following types of cards appear to have a specific range of IDs:

• Trick stick reskins appear to have IDs in the low 2200s.
• House interior cards share a common ID with their house cards (similar to how the view and appear cutscene cards share common IDs with their species).
