ok, first of all: the animation flag (bit 0 of the flags) seems to define whether the file contains app data (in case of STIs that are the animation headers). so far it looks like all files with this flag set have app data. which would then be the same as checking if uiAppDataSize is greater than 0, I believed. in fact some files do have an app data size of 0, but do contain app data.

one file puzzles me, though. IMP face #216 from the 4870 release has the "has app data" flag set, but has no actual app data. when I try using that face the game crashes as soon as I enter the tactic screen. is the STI corrupt or did I miss out on something? all other faces I tested didn't have the flag set.

and I couldn't find any purpose of the unused data blocks, maybe values other than 0 are simply remnants of earlier format versions. does anyone know if these have any meaning?
