FXTEdit

v0.1

Installation

Unzip this archive on any directory on your disk. I suggest 'C:\Games\GTA\Tools\FXTEdit' if GTA is installed in 'C:\Games\GTA'.
You can create a FXTEdit.ini with the following lines, in the same directory as you installed it.

Limits of the software

Currently (v0.1), .FXT files are read-only in FXTEdit.

Known bugs

Strings with ID 1522 to 1526 and 4000 in FRENCH.FXT, GERMAN.FXT and ITALIAN.FXT are stranges. Have a look to the files using FXT2TXT to understand the problem. I'm waiting your suggestions for a workaround!
Loading is very very slow! About 50 seconds on my Pentium 90!

Planned for next versions
