EditorDPF overview

     EditorDPF is an useful resource editor that works with CRM32Pro SDK. DPF means Data Package Format, a proprietary package format that could be used to store any kind of information. The information is packed, compacted and encrypted to obtain a minimum size, a fast access and a secure format.

     Using EditorDPF, you have access to all CRM32Pro resource types: images, tiles,sprites,fonts, buttons,sounds, music and plain files(XML,INI or any other format) which can be easily modified.
One of the most useful advantages of using EditorDPF and DPF resources on your application is you do not have to re-compile it if any resource is changed. It allows a common scenario where a devoloper finishes an application using "test" resources and after that, a true artist can use only EditorDPF to modify all of them without any developer support. And do not forget that for the devoloper is very easy to work with these resources: all CRM32Pro interfaces have a methods to properly manage them.

     EditorDPF runs over any Windows version, with a simple and powerful GUI. Thanks to it, is very easy to add new resources, modify or delete existing ones.
