Save File Format Documentation

[spaceeinstein]

This topic documents GTA 2's save file format in preparation for documentation at GTAModding.com. This is for binary files named plyslot*.svg, where * is the player number beginning with 0. People have documented this before but I'm unable to find it. It would be great if you can help out.
