__NOTOC__
+
Pinata names can be found encoded on cards released by Rare.  Examples of such cards are the PV-exclusive [[Black variant cards|black]] and [[Other variant cards|other variant]] cards, the [[Gallery of special Piñata Vision images|holiday and themed cards]], and the pre-launch cards (e.g., [[:Image:BunnycombPV.jpg|BunnycombPV.jpg]]).

: ''Note: Much of this information is out-of-date/wrong, and needs to be updated.  (E.g., there is no name length data; the character set is 5 bits (not 7 or based on ASCII); the name data can start in row 1 if no other optional data is present to shift it into row 2.)  Refer to the [[Piñata_Vision_barcode/Encoded_data#Name|encoded data]] article for more up-to-date information.''

== Name data ==
+
Cards shared by gamers at [http://VivaPinata.com/ VivaPinata.com] do not have pinata names.
 +
 
 +
=== Name flag ===
 +
 
 +
The [[Piñata_Vision_barcode/Encoded_data#Name_flag|name flag]] identifies whether an optional pinata name is present or not.
 +
 
 +
==== Location of name flag ====
 +
 
 +
The offset for the name flag varies, depending on the existence of other optional data, such as accessories.  (Since the accessory data is variable length, depending on accessory count, the name flag will not be at a fixed offset, however its offset relative to the accessory data should be constant.)

Based on released GoodVariants and Blackariants cards, encoded names are 3 to 9 characters long, the longest (and only 9-character name) being [[:Image:Chewnicorn-TroubleInParadise-Black-Francesca-PV.jpg|Francesca]].
+
=== Name length ===
  
−
Other cards with longer names include [[:Image:Tusk-Killer_Instinct-PV.jpg|Uncle Tusk]], [[:Image:Pengum-TroubleInParadise-TeamMember-14-PV.jpg|Fiddy Pence]], [[:Image:Custacean-TroubleInParadise-TGS08-PV.jpg|Maximum Carnage]], and [[:Image:Geckie-TroubleInParadise-TGS08-PV.jpg|Geckiesaurus Rex]].
+
The variable-length [[Piñata_Vision_barcode/Encoded_data#Name|name data]] does not contain an encoded length/count. Instead the name is terminated with a null character (\0, called NUL).
  
−
Based on the above names, the name length data is possibly a 5-bit field (0-31, with the likelihood that 0 indicates the absence of a variable-length name field to follow).
+
It's unknown if the name length is capped by an in-game limit, or constrained by the permitted number of rows in a barcode (4 rows being the most seen.)
  
−
From the [[#Decoding_name_data|results]] of ([[Piñata_Vision_barcode/Obfuscation_set|obfuscation set]] C) cards that have been decoded so far, it's possible that the name itself may be encoded as (7-bit?) ASCII characters.  Other sets need to be checked to verify if punctuation and spaces are likewise encoded as ASCII.
+
For GoodVariants and Blackariants cards, encoded names are 3 to 9 characters long, the longest (and only 9-character name) being [[:Image:Chewnicorn-TroubleInParadise-Black-Francesca-PV.jpg|Francesca]].
  
−
It's uncertain yet if/how accented or multi-byte Unicode characters (e.g., CJK) are encoded.
+
Other cards with longer names include [[:Image:Tusk-Killer_Instinct-PV.jpg|Uncle Tusk]], [[:Image:Pengum-TroubleInParadise-TeamMember-14-PV.jpg|Fiddy Pence]], [[:Image:Custacean-TroubleInParadise-TGS08-PV.jpg|Maximum Carnage]], and [[:Image:Geckie-TroubleInParadise-TGS08-PV.jpg|Geckiesaurus Rex]].

== Location of name length bits ==
+
== Name data ==
  
−
GoodVariants and Blackariants cards encode name length data in row 2, as determined by checking rows 1 and 2 for all obfuscation sets.  It's likely that PlaceTag species also have a name length field in row 2, although the lack of specific name data for those cards makes it impossible to verify at this time.

[[Piñata_Vision_barcode/Encoded_data#Name|Name data]] appears to closely follow the name flag. Further decoding needs to be done to identify other bits near the flag, and how they affect offsets.

== Location of name data ==

=== Decoding name data ===
  
−
Names appear to be encoded starting in row 2, with longer names continuing on to row 3.
+
The name character set is 5 bits, with no shift bit to distinguish between upper and lower case.  It contains the letters A through Z, the space character, and the NUL character.  (There is a possibility of 4 more characters in the set, although no cards have been seen so far that use those bit patterns.)
  
−
== Decoding name data ==
+
It's probable that accented or multi-byte Unicode characters (e.g., CJK) cannot be encoded on a card.
  
−
By decoding the name length field, then decoding the following ''namelen'' characters, names can be read from the barcode.  (Results stop at 6 characters, due to the lack of enough similarly-obfuscated longer-name cards.)
+
To decode a name, start at the name data offset, then read and decode 5-bit characters until the NUL character is found.  Uppercase is handled by capitalizing the first character, and any character that follows a space character.  (I.e., capitalize the first character of each word.)

The following cards belong to the same (row 2) obfuscation set, but have differing pinata names.  However, their names are all the same length, raising the possibility that a) there is a length "byte" for the name field, and b) the row 2 obfuscation set selection involves bits from that field.

Pinata names can be found encoded on cards released by Rare. Examples of such cards are the PV-exclusive black and other variant cards, the holiday and themed cards, and the pre-launch cards (e.g., BunnycombPV.jpg).

Cards shared by gamers at VivaPinata.com do not have pinata names.

Name flag

The name flag identifies whether an optional pinata name is present or not.

Location of name flag

The offset for the name flag varies, depending on the existence of other optional data, such as accessories. (Since the accessory data is variable length, depending on accessory count, the name flag will not be at a fixed offset, however its offset relative to the accessory data should be constant.)

Name length

The variable-length name data does not contain an encoded length/count. Instead the name is terminated with a null character (\0, called NUL).

It's unknown if the name length is capped by an in-game limit, or constrained by the permitted number of rows in a barcode (4 rows being the most seen.)

For GoodVariants and Blackariants cards, encoded names are 3 to 9 characters long, the longest (and only 9-character name) being Francesca.

Other cards with longer names include Uncle Tusk, Fiddy Pence, Maximum Carnage, and Geckiesaurus Rex.

Name data

Location of name data

Name data appears to closely follow the name flag. Further decoding needs to be done to identify other bits near the flag, and how they affect offsets.

Decoding name data

The name character set is 5 bits, with no shift bit to distinguish between upper and lower case. It contains the letters A through Z, the space character, and the NUL character. (There is a possibility of 4 more characters in the set, although no cards have been seen so far that use those bit patterns.)

It's probable that accented or multi-byte Unicode characters (e.g., CJK) cannot be encoded on a card.

To decode a name, start at the name data offset, then read and decode 5-bit characters until the NUL character is found. Uppercase is handled by capitalizing the first character, and any character that follows a space character. (I.e., capitalize the first character of each word.)

Working notes

Matching names

The following cards share pinata names, and belong to the same (row 2) obfuscation set.

Cards that also share matching variant data have nearly identical row 2 barcodes, differing in only a few bits.

D1EBE85E5810F7AE 5168F4594AA61BF1	Mothdrop-TroubleInParadise-Black-(Harley-)PV.jpg (Variant 15)

Note that the first two cards share the same variant data, and that their row 2 barcodes are nearly identical.

Again, the first two cards share the same variant data, and their row 2 barcodes are nearly identical.

The third card happens to share a matching pinata name, but its row 2 barcode is obfuscated differently. Although name length does seem to be one factor in row 2 obfuscation set selection, another factor (such as variant bits or GoodVariants ID) may jointly determine how row 2 is obfuscated.

Also notable (but unrelated) is that the row 1 barcodes for the two Juicygoose cards are identical. The cards do share the same species ID (and use cost). It's unknown at this point if the matching names have any influence on the row 1 barcode, but the differing variant data appears to be completely unrelated to row 1.
