WDT

WDT files specify exactly which map tiles are present in a world, if any, and can also reference a "global" WMO. They have a chunked file structure.

MPHD chunk

• Header chunk.

Contains 8 32-bit integers. The lower 4 Bits of the first integer are a bitmask:

Flag 		Description
0b0001 	No Terrain/no terraincollision
0b0010 	unknown(nothing?)
0b0100 	funky(-> http://imagr.eu/upload/66886112164390_WoWScrnShot_022809_122447.jpg )
0b1000 	unknown(nothing?)

MAIN chunk

• Map tile table.

Contains 64x64 = 4096 records of 8 bytes each.

int32 flags;
void * somedata;

Flags&1 tells us, if a tile is holding an ADT. Flags&2 gets set ingame when an ADT is loaded at that position. The pointer to some data is set if the tile is loaded asynchronous.

if ( !(MAIN.flags & 2) )
   LoadADTByPosition( x, y );
if ( *(Main.somedata) )
   AsyncFileReadWait( *(Main.somedata) );

Blizzard was just too lazy to compress the files here. A simple bool array and adding the fields when parsing would the alternative. We just need to know the &1 flag.

MWMO, MODF chunks

For worlds with terrain, the MWMO chunk is empty and there is no MODF chunk. For a global-WMO-only world, these chunks specify an object in the same format as it is already done in ADT files. See the ADT format description for details.

MWMO chunk

• List of filenames for WMOs (world map objects) that appear in this map tile. A contiguous block of zero-terminated strings.

MODF chunk

• Placement information for WMOs. 64 bytes per wmo instance.

Offset 	Type 		Description
0x00 	uint32 		ID (index in the MWMO list)
0x04 	uint32 		unique identifier for this instance
0x08 	3*floats 	Position (X,Y,Z)
0x14 	3*floats 	Orientation (A,B,C)
0x20 	6*floats 	Extents
0x38 	uint32 		Flags
0x3A 	uint16 		Doodad set index
0x3C 	uint32 		Name set
