Hi everyone,
Just finished Hob recently, and I was thinking it'd be cool to mod the game so that enemies respawn somehow, either after a series of other zones are visited (like TL2) or after a period of time. I know it's been said that we'll probably only be able to do cosmetic stuff, but I'm forever the optimist!
Out of curiosity I decided to see what I could find in the pak files even I know we haven't worked out how to repack it yet. Again being an optimist

Has anyone noticed random jarbled letters etc when trying to edit the unpacked .dat files? Maybe it's my version of notepad?
I get this kind of stuff throughout all of them:
7 3# 7 i= 7 /? 7 o@ 7 %< 7 = 7 7 7 < 7 F q7
@ p7 s7 " r7 < ɺq cm "
Or has it not unpacked properly? hmmm

...
There are some .dat files in the hob folder that can already be read fine.
