Title: General Question
Post by: Captain Kool on September 03, 2007, 08:30:50
Hello friends,
How do I open a XML or CRG file? I know most people can view them but I just get this:

This is not normal.

Actually, I think it's pretty normal. Since the files are property of VSTEP, they're encrypted. Plain and simple.  :)
Ciao,

I believe that some of the users on here are able to view them. Also, I can view on my other computer XML and CRG files without any troubles.

AFAIK, crg files are all encrypted. As for xml files, I guess it depends on which file we're speaking of. I remember a post about a modification to the weatherpreset file, so I suppose that it is (or perhaps was, after the patch) editable. Don't know about other files...
