(...)
As far as I have understood, the tweak files must be changed only when the format of the DAT files changes. GWX, as a mod, does not alter the format (only the values) in the DAT files. So those tweak files should be good for GWX.

the tweak files are comprized of .dat , .sim , and .zon files and the particles folder contains .txt files. these files are spread throughout sh3 and in several folders.

i do understand they will work as is, but timetraveler recommends customizing them to whatever version your running, so thats where im getting confused about it. what is meant by "customizing them".

do the tweak files "pull" thier info from the game folder presently installed at that time or do they already contain this info and simply display it when opened?

my confusion arose when trying to compare values from stock version tweak files and open the gwx files version by using open the alternate folder tab and trying to see what changes were made so i can better understand what can be done using the tweaker. when i looked at the numbers i can find no differences between the game files and the tweak files.
