Atros -> What is the password for save game files? (6/26/2020 11:47:09 PM)
The saves are compressed on zip-format and protected by password, any idea what the password is that the game generates and why is there one in the first place? Yes, I would like to mess with my save files and check some data directly from them, even if it is in hex-format or something similar... Personally I really love Paradox-saves, as you can easily get and modify all the info there as it is clearly expressed without protections and thus easy to read.

Vic said he does not want us to see stuff yet, as that might get us to try modding. At a time when several core mechanics are not yet figured out. so the mods could become entirely invalid. If hte files use any modern Encryption like AES, there is no way we are going to crack it this side of brute force.

I checked, the files use ZipCrypto Deflate, not AES, which should be reasonably easy to crack according to quick googling. The most probable reason for this is that AES would use more time on save and load and there probably aren't anything top secret anyways...

And ZipCrypto is the encryption algorithm, what exactly is your point?

My understanding was, that ZipCrypto was the name of a .NET Library that supports creating Encrypted .Zip Files (As the build in classes do not). If it is really the old, build-in Encryption, all my data says it would be pretty easy to crack.
