ENDLESS™ Space is a turn-based 4X strategy game, covering the space colonization age in the ENDLESS™ Universe. You control every aspect of your civilization as you strive for galactic dominion.
I searched the forums to see if this topic was brought up before, and didn't really find anything but, does anyone know of a good, free xml editor that represents the xml visually (i.e. not as text but as a table, list, etc)? All the ones I found were free trials for 30 days only. Modding the ~60 or so xml files can be really dull if dealing with the raw xml, so I'm interested in seeing what free editors have to offer.
Thanks. The design is simple, yet pretty good. After a bit of playing around with it, I found that it takes issue with game's xml files. The real reason I posted this thread was because I stopped playing endless space (too addictive) for a long time and wanted to get back to modding it/ playing it, but didn't want to deal with xml text. so I made an editor designed somewhat around Endless Space xml files (still working on the look, though).
I was wondering if there were similar programs out there so that I could compare and see what features I am missing. I guess I'm missing alternate views of the xml.
While an interesting idea for a GUI - I have found that Notepad++ colors the XML tags sufficiently for a familiar user to quickly navigate the script/code.
Regardless you may have to customize how the program displays it depending on which game you are modifying the XML files for (such as unique variables or tags for games such as Endless Space and Civ).
Any version of Visual Studio Express is also really, really useful for editing multiple XML files and it's what I used to make my Galciv 2 fix mod. Particularly the ability to search through multiple files is a godsend.
Yeah, Visual Studio is what I use while my editor isn't finished. The goal is to eventually have features that are difficult with text editors, like batch element editing or linking to other open files.
