Some of the files within the TW games (eg .db and .world files) are in a binary format that is best viewed with a Hex Editor.
There are a variety of free or cheap hex editors available. Various members of the community have recommended: http://www.chmaas.handshake.de/delphi/freeware/xvi32/xvi32.htm which has a good data inspector feature and an encoding function.
Others such as http://mh-nexus.de/en/ have copy and paste functionality and a file comparison capability.
Non-free hex editors such as WinHex are also used by some modders, many more are available.
This article is quite short and not very useful. You can help flesh it out. Please see TWC Wiki:Help for information on how to edit the Wiki. |
