DDI Wad
From Research Realm
DDI Wad is a file format developed by Data Design Interactive for storing files in games. The format was first used in Conquest Earth. DDI Wad files usually use the file extension .wad. The format is unrelated to Doom WAD or Wii WAD files.
The format changed in different games. In Conquest Earth for instance, the header info is at the end of the file.
