XML???
 

I was looking in Scum/Assets/DefSchemas today and I found a bunch of files like:
Ability.schema.xml.z
Checkpoint.schema.xml.z
...

I thought: xml files great I will change some stuff, but when I opened them up in my xml editor (notepad++) its garbage :compcry:

I tried to open them in a decompressing program (IZArc), nothing

I looked at similar xml files and they are of similar file size so I determided they probably are not compressed

So I came to the conclusion they are encrypted or they invented their own xml format :mad:

So want is going on here any ideas, I don't want to try to decrypt a file that is just some weird format. Any ideas?

ps: please do not disregard my post because of my n00b status

I tried editing those but just like you I've had no luck. Let's face it TFU is about as mod friendly as 5 dogs to an old man locked in a closet.:indif:

Darn I guess I'm not the only one with this problem.

I don't get it, so many Star Wars games have to mod friendly, I still play JA because they released the source code for it, you can make wonderful mods, TFU nothing... :confused:

They never released the source code for JA. It's just that the content's of the game are not encrypted.

No it was, I have it on my desktop right now...

Need I go on...

It sounds to me like your gonna need a File Conversion Software that will convert the files to another format, so they can become readable for your other program(s); in which you want to edit the files with.

I'm no expert, but that's what I would try next.

Sorry. My bad.
