EditorDPF

Overview

It is an essential, powerful and easy to use tool for managing all CRM32Pro SDK resources.

DPF is the acronym of Data Package Format, a proprietary format that secures, compresses and encrypts the data providing a great and fast resource container. All CRM32Pro SDK interfaces have methods for loading/saving the objects to a DPF file.

Another important reason for using it and the DPF on all the resources of your application is that you can modify all the resources without recompiling the code. This allows a common scenario where a developer works on an application using “test” resources and once finished, musicians and graphic artists can use the editor for modifying the resources without developer supports.
