- Introduced new file `vm_mask_ladder.tsv` containing detailed mappings for Crusader USECODE VM masks and their associated descriptors. - Added comprehensive documentation in `scummvm-crusader-reference.md` outlining the structure, findings, and implications for reverse-engineering the Crusader engine within ScummVM. - Created `usecode-roundtrip-ir.md` to document the plan for converting Crusader USECODE bytes into a human-readable format, detailing the container layout, event names, and intrinsic tables. - Implemented a PowerShell script `temp_usecode_sample.ps1` for extracting and analyzing USECODE data from the Crusader FLX files, providing insights into class and event structures.
