I am looking into a way to parse the demigod replay file to remove most of the movement data and create a game summary. The idea is you can see in chronological order what skills people get, what items they buy, what citadel upgrades where bought and when someone is killed and by whom. The goal is to quickly see what each person buys and when, and how well they did with those purchases.

I looked at the replay file and unfortunately and expected, it is a binary file format. The first 20% of the file has a lot of readable strings, but there is definately some interlaced binary data in it. Has anyone done any research into this format, or can GPG/Stardock release a document that describes the file format?
