<p>LSdsl: /* DAT in GTA VS and SA mobile verions?! */</p> <hr /> <div>Hhmm... I would leave out nodes from here, since they are no explicit data files. I would interprate them as a seperate field of modding. Data files in my oppinion are files which define behaviours and additional gameplay information related to the script, and so on. Paths are a bit too complex to be data files, since they are more mapping-related. (However San Andreas is the only game with the extension .dat. SA's ancestors used the IPL format and IV uses .nod to difference the files from explicit data content) --[[User:Aschratt|Aschratt]] 16:38, 20 February 2009 (UTC)<br /> :Ok, put it under the See also section as they are .DAT anyway :) [[User:Seemann|Seemann]] 17:14, 20 February 2009 (UTC)<br /> :: Deal :p --[[User:Aschratt|Aschratt]] 18:07, 20 February 2009 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == Useless files ==<br /> <br /> What should we do about useless files like animviewer.dat and map*.dat?
