What should we do about useless files like animviewer.dat and map*.dat? Should we still document those, have them redirect to this page, or something else?--[[User:Spaceeinstein|Spaceeinstein]] ([[User talk:Spaceeinstein|talk]]) 05:32, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

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) --Aschratt 16:38, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
