Where would you start if you wanted to make a program to edit effects?
First, I understand that there will be no tutorial on this and that developing the skills could take years, and I don't expect anyone to walk me through it. I just want someone to point me in the right direction. I was looking for information on Sims 2 effects and saw a program written by @Denton47 that edits effects for TS4. I saw that modders have made a lot more progress on understanding Swarm files that Sims games use for effects than people had back in the TS2 days
Link. In order to eventually open and edit the TS2 fx file, what would you need to know? C++?
