The texts inside .rco files are indexed in the embedded '''RCOXML''' code of the .rco container under the XML element '''TextTree'''. See [[Resource Container (RCO)]] and [[RCOXML Coding]]

All the texts inside .rco has a localized file for every one of the [[languages]] supported by [[XMB]]. The localized file contains all the translated text strings

"TextTree" could be renamed to LanguageTree, is more intuitive, the point is every entry here is the "parent" of several string texts, but the entry itself is not a text (is the parent of a group of texts), so is better to use a name more abstract like "LanguageTree"
For a [[Languages|Language]] first are specified the '''language_id''' and the number of "children" text strings
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Offset !! Length !! Name !! Example !! Notes
|-
| 0x00 || 0x02 || '''language_id''' ||  || 0x00=Japanese<br>0x01=English (United States)<br>0x02=French<br>0x03=Spanish (Spain)<br>0x04=German<br>0x05=Italian<br>0x06=Dutch<br>0x07=Portuguese (Portugal)<br>0x08=Russian<br>0x09=Korean<br>0x0A=Chinese (Traditional)<br>0x0B=Chinese (Simplified)<br>0x0C=Finnish<br>0x0D=Swedish<br>0x0E=Danish<br>0x0F=Norwegian<br>0x10=Polish<br>0x11=Portuguese (Brazil)<br>0x12=English (United Kingdom)<br>0x13=Turkish

| 0x02 || 0x02 || '''character_encoding''' ||  || Works as a replacement of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark BOM]<br>0x00=[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8 UTF8]<br>0x01=[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-16 UTF16]<br>0x02=[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-32 UTF32]
|-
| 0x04 || 0x04 || '''strings_number''' ||  || number of text strings for this '''language_id'''

Now for every '''strings_number''' are repeated 12 bytes to define every string that are references to other tables
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Offset !! Length !! Name !! Example !! Notes
|-
| 0x00 || 0x04 || '''label_offset''' ||  || Offset to label, relative of the label table
|-
| 0x04 || 0x04 || '''string_length''' ||  || Length of the text
|-
| 0x08 || 0x04 || '''string_offset''' ||  || Offset of the text, relative to the text data start address
|}
