Forum :: Client Editing :: Reading a .EMF file?

Not sure if this is the correct section to put this in... Oh well..

Is there any way to read a .EMF file? I wanted to see how they're structered to try create a map editor of my own, opening it in Notepad and Dev C++ just returned this:

EMFoa¿ÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿÿþ
6*þþ)þþ

I don't know alot about this, But sausage has an open source of his map editor on his website. You could take a look but it's currently offline though

I found something in pastebin a while ago that had the file format. https://tehsausage.com/paste/emf-format

By the way These kind of things go into Client Editing, to answer to your curiosity.

By the way for looking at the raw data I'd suggest a hex editor that lets you view the binary values of each character. I open my emf/pub files with EditPad Pro, but you can probably find a free one pretty easily.

Also wouldn't a question about a file format..for a program someone wants to make...go in programming?
