Hello !
I've just recently reinstalled "Age of Empires: Dawn of the Modern World" because i wanted to try it out again to refresh some memories after 10+ years.
Now since the game is way outdated and there are a few things that bug me, i'd like to make some changes, since its a lot easier now to make changes yourself in configuration files. Its an offline game so the changes affect only me.
I've managed to change a few things already using "Notepad++" to fix a few things within the game files, but im currently stuck, not being able to change more due to some weird file extensions.
The files end in .dat, .cem, .udf, and so on. They all have the same encoded text (NULL, ETX, BS, SOH,..) inside when i try to open them with Notepad++ and its unreadable.
Im no expert in those things, so im asking for a suggestion what software can i use to edit the files.
You can check the screenshot i've attached below.
Thanks !
