-(This file essentially, represents the SEGEMENTS of the theater, starting a 0,0 in the LOWER LEFT corner, to 63,63 in the UPPER RIGHT. Each of the DWORD(LONG) Records points to the location in the L2 file (in BYTES), that the 16x16 Tiles that make up each segment, begins. Like the O2 files, the order of the 16x16 segement records in the L2 is, starting at Lower Left, going to Upper Right).

-And looking at that structure then, the only thing a 4byte structure does, is allow a larger number of textures to be used? Not that I want to mess with that area of it... Just the elevation stuff... And that shouldnt require messing with the O2, should it?

 The L2 Offset points into fartiles.raw. With the more diversified tiled theaters, like the Balkans, the 16-bit offset was limited to 64,767 fartiles (Blkans has ~102,000 fartiles). Making the Offset a 32-bit integer extended the number of fartiles to 4+ gig tiles.
