Decoding Arena

Post » Thu Jul 19, 2012 6:27 pm

Well I've looked at this before, and back then these forums were much quieter, but I thought I would try asking again.

The crux of this is I want to re-create the Arena cities, and the easiest way to do this would be to decode them out of the Arena files. Now before I go any further, I need one thing to be clear: The cities are not generated every time you play....I've played the game many time over many different computer and the city layouts are always the same. That means their layout is stored somewhere in the game files.


I'm hoping someone around here has played with the Arena files before, and may understand how they are encoded. I would assume the city layout information is stored within the CITYDATA files.....but there just doesnt seem enough room in those files for the amount of info that would have to be stored.
