Spawn Points

Can anyone explain the naming convention used for many of the .cres I find in various spawn points? The following code is from BP, but theare a lot of other areas that have spawned .cres that begin with "RD" but I'm unable to locate any resource such as RDGIBB.cre or RDORC.CRE anywhere in my game, though I assume the intention is to have either gibberlings, or orcs to be spawned.

SET "new_spawns_offset" = ("%spawns_offset%"+0xc8*"%spawns_num%")
INSERT_BYTES "%new_spawns_offset%" 0xc8
WRITE_ASCII "%new_spawns_offset%" ~Spawn Point 11~ #32
WRITE_SHORT ("%new_spawns_offset%" + 0x20) ~1074~
WRITE_SHORT ("%new_spawns_offset%" + 0x22) ~530~
WRITE_ASCII ("%new_spawns_offset%" + 0x24) ~RDSAND1~ #8
WRITE_ASCII ("%new_spawns_offset%" + 0x2c) ~RDSPID3~ #8
WRITE_SHORT ("%new_spawns_offset%" + 0x74) ~2~
WRITE_SHORT ("%new_spawns_offset%" + 0x76) ~2~
WRITE_SHORT ("%new_spawns_offset%" + 0x78) ~1~
WRITE_SHORT ("%new_spawns_offset%" + 0x7a) ~0x1~ //unknowns
WRITE_SHORT ("%new_spawns_offset%" + 0x7c) ~0x03e8~ //unknowns
WRITE_SHORT ("%new_spawns_offset%" + 0x80) ~0x03e8~ //unknowns
WRITE_SHORT ("%new_spawns_offset%" + 0x82) ~0x03e8~ //unknowns
WRITE_SHORT ("%new_spawns_offset%" + 0x84) ~2~
WRITE_SHORT ("%new_spawns_offset%" + 0x86) ~2~
WRITE_LONG  ("%new_spawns_offset%" + 0x88) ~0xffffffff~ //time to pull out the hex editor...
WRITE_LONG  ("%new_spawns_offset%" + 0x8c) ~0x640064~ 
SET "spawns_num" = "%spawns_num%" +1

OK, I've answered the 1st part of my question from finally locating spawngrp.2da so the next question is there a correlation index that you can determine what creature will spawn between say, RDFIRE1, RDFIRE2, & RDFIRE3???

I dunno; there's no IESDP entry for spawngrp.2da. For what it's worth, the "Difficulty" number in the columns seems to range from 0-250, and the row range is from 1 to 8, which might just be a random die throw.
