Modding notes:

No way to reimport edited textures
Swapping 'beta' Ares crashes
Swapping others is jank (animations break model)
- Swap animations on hkc.cpk
.hkt references the original rig name in the file
- Change to swapped name in hexedit just in case

.../chr_en.cpk

enemy models/effects
- CHR,CADYS,CAMDO,CAMTP,CASMT,CEA,CES,EFP,HKT couldn't figure out naming rules
bigger files are usually bosses
.cadys only exist for a few enemies?

some ganglions as en02___

 en010601: vasara
 en010701: Zu Pharg (named Aegis)
 en010801: almandal
 en061101: chimera Lao

.../chr_fc.cpk

character faces and hairs
- CADYS,CAMDO,CAMTP,CASMT,EFP,HKT
fc1__=male fc2__=female
fcXN___: N is a face group
- fcXN1__=faces, fcXN2__=hairs, fcXN3__=ahoges
Male MCs are under fc11,12,13:

Other Playable male characters under fc18__:

 fc181000	Blank face
 fc181010	Nagi's face
 fc182010	Nagi's hair
 fc181020	L's face

Same goes for female but with fc2__ instead
```
 fc281010/1	elma/true form
```

Modding notes:

UNPACK camdo/casmt:

REPACK:
- ???
camdo/camst swaps (renaming) are possible
The game runs even with the folder missing

.../chr_fceye.cpk

Textures for MC's eyes
- CATEX

Modding notes:

UNPACK:
- Use xenoTextureConvert (Xenotoolset)
REPACK:
- ????

.../chr_fctex.cpk

Textures for MC's face details:
- CATEX
IDs correspond to model IDs
fc1___= male, fc2___= female
