Editing Problems

[mb5oaks]

Hi, i'm new to editing in SH4 but i'm kinda familiar with editing in other games. I'm use to just editing most things in notepad but when i open a .zon file or .sim file all i get is half english an half...it seems unreadable.

example:

reload��"���Range�
���range��<F
���angle���4B���ammo_storage�$���AP����shell�Ì–�É Gp'
���amount��}��$���HE����shell�Ì–�É«ÇZ
���amount��}��$���AA����shell���������
���amount��}��$���SS����shell���������
���amount��}������Fire����effect�j;šçÖæk—

I'm trying to edit ammo storage, sub speed, weapons power, ext.

I downloaded silent3editor but all i get is half bits of stuff and never teh real meat of what i want.

My game works fine so i know its not a bad file.

please help
