Description

Description:
CfgConvert is a command line tool for converting configs between text and binary representation.
If you use the interface (cfgConvertGUI), based on the input file, it detects if it needs to `binarize` or `unbinarize`.

Usage

Line call:
cfgConvert.exe [-bin | -txt | -xml | -q | -test] {[-dst <destination>] <source>}
cfgConvertGUI.exe
Options:
  • -bin - converts input to binarised config
  • -txt - converts input to unbinarised config
  • -xml - converts input to XML format
  • -q - quiet mode, does not display errors
  • -test - test mode, only loads the file and shows potential errors without writing anything
  • -dst - defines the output destination
  • -pcpp - outputs a preprocessed version of the input file
Examples:
// CPP to Bin cfgConvert.exe -bin -dst p:\addon\config.bin p:\addon\config.cpp // Bin to CPP cfgConvert.exe -txt -dst p:\addon\config.cpp p:\addon\config.bin // Binarized SQM to unbinarized SQM cfgConvert.exe -txt -dst p:\Arma3\missions\myMission\mission_dest.sqm p:\Arma3\missions\myMission\mission_source.sqm
