Mii

Page Discussion
Revision as of 03:09, 18 April 2019 by Oreo639 (talk | contribs) (Add further clarification)

Originally created for the Nintendo Wii (and backported to a selection of DS/i games), the Mii format was expanded with a larger selection of facial features and a new "copying" permission for the 3DS family, and later implemented as-is on Wii U.

See Mii Maker for the application chiefly designed to create, edit, delete, and trade Miis or convert them from and to a QR code.

The default endianness in this page is little-endian, unless explicitly specified.

Mii Database

Format of the Mii main database CFL_DB.dat, found in shared extdata archive f0000000b.

Offset Length
0x0 0x4 Header "CFOG" (Mii Maker section)
0x4 0x4 Header 0x00000100
0x8 0x23F0 (100 * 0x5C) Array of owned (saved in Mii Maker) Miis. Order in file is unrelated to canonical order in-app.
0x23F8 0x4 Header "CFHE"
0x23FC 0x2 Linked list tail index. 0xFFFF if the list is empty
0x23FE 0x2 Linked list head index. 0xFFFF if the list is empty
0x2400 0xA410 (3000 * 0xE) Linked list of objects? See chapter
0xC810 0xE Padding?
0xC81E 0x2 Checksum of all of the above (the first 0xC81E byte). See section below.
0xC820 0x4 Header "CFRA" (Invitations section)
0xC824 0x4 Mii count in this section. Maximum 100
0xC828 0x64 (100 * 0x1) Order index of Mii in this section?
0xC88C 0x1C20 (100 * 0x48) Array of Miis contributed from games, used for Mii Plaza "invitations" feature.
The format isn't that of a full Mii. The "author" field is missing
0xE4AC 0x12 01 00 [..] 00
0xE4BE 0x2 Checksum over the data above starting from 0xC820
0xE4C0 0x3D860 (3000 * 0x54) Another array of Miis. Seems related to the CFHE section.
The Mii format in this section is modified. The "author" field is missing, A 4-byte timestamp (seconds since 2000) together with 8-byte zeros(?) is appended at the end.

When encrypted in QR codes, 4 additional bytes are added. Two null bytes and a CRC-16. It's the exact same CRC-16 as for the Wii blocks on the 0x5e first bytes. It seems that the CRC is ignored, the Mii Maker expecting the result of APT:Unwrap to detect integrity loss.

CFHE object

A 0xE-byte long linked list node. The format is 4-byte Mii ID (See Mii format) + 6-byte MAC + 2-byte previous node index (prev) + 2-byte next node index (next).

An invalid node has value: ID = 0, MAC = 0, prev = 0x7FFF, next = 0x7FFF.

The highest bit of these fields has some special meaning and isn't part of the index value.

Checksum

The algorithm used to verify the integrity of the database is based on CRC16-CCITT, though it's an incorrect implementation. It is the same algorithm used to verify Mii Data on the Wii.

To obtain the correct value for the checksum, apply the algorithm to the first 0xC81E bytes of the database. This can be done using FixCRC; alternativly a pseudocode implementation of the checksum algorithm is given below: 

def crc16_CCITTWii(u8[]: data) -> u16:
    """Calculate a checksum of data using the CRC16-CCITT implementation of the Wii

    This implementation uses 0x0000 as the starting value, which is different
    from what CRC16-CCITT specifies.
    """

    # note: a correct implementation of CRC16-CCITT
    #       would initialize this to 0xffff
    u32 crc := 0x0

    for byte in data:
        # Iterate over every of the 8 bits in byte.
        # Begin with the most significant bit. (7, 6, ... , 1, 0)
        for bit in 7..0:
            # & - binary `and'; <</>> - bitshift left/right; ^ - binary `xor'
            crc := (
                     (crc << 1) | ((byte >> bit) & 0x1)
                     ^ (0x1021 if crc & 0x8000 else 0)
                   )

    for _ in 0..15:
        crc := (crc << 1) ^ (0x1021 if crc & 0x8000 else 0)

    # only return the lowest 16 bit of crc
    return (u16) (crc & 0xffff)

checksum := crc16_CCITTWii(miidb[0:0xc81e]) # checksum over the first 0xc81e bytes

Mii categories (pants colors)

Special (gold) Miis

Specialness will override any other color and make the Mii non-editable.

Copying is rumored to have to be disabled.

Zeroed system-id and timestamp?

Imported (blue) Miis

Any (non-gold) Mii with a different System ID will appear as a foreign one.

There is also a range of Mii IDs that are always foreign and uneditable, regardless of the System ID:


Regular (black/red) Miis

Always editable, since they can only appear as such on the console that created them.


Personal (red) Mii

A red Mii that happens to be the first in the file!

0x08815998: Same 4 bytes as encrypted Mii: first 4 bits for Mii type, 4 next for number of seconds since 01/01/2010 00:00:00 UTC+3 (should be verified by other country and region 3DS) divided by 2. 0x0881599C: 6 bytes of MAC address of the 3DS that created the Mii. 0x088159A2: 6 unknow uses bytes 0x088159A8: Same 8 bytes as decrypted Mii at 0x04 through 0x0B. Seems NAND specific, kept the same on Miis created on same NAND but different 3DS via System Transfer. Might be a coincidence but the two first bytes are in ID0 folder name in the Nintendo 3DS folder.

Mapped Editor <-> Hex values

Most of the values are ordered (left button decreases, right increases, color choices are top to bottom...) but for most "main" part of the UI, where you choose the style of the part being edited, hex values has no correlation with displayed order. Here is a JSON that can go from a Part, a Page and Position to the right hex value. This is 0 indexed (eg: datas["face"][0][11]).
