BFLIM File Format

NintendoWare > Layout Image (FLIM)

BFLIM files start with the texture data. A footer is stored behind the texture data. This probably makes it easier to align the texture data in memory. The footer is found by examining the last 4 bytes of the file, which contain the size of the texture data.
