The X Rebirth Mission Director guide is found at
http://www.egosoft.com/download/x_rebir ... rGuide.pdf
The Mission Director guide makes reference to a scriptproperties.html help file. This file and the extra files to make it work are buried inside the game catalog files.
Egosoft have provided the X Rebirth Tools on Steam to extract files from the catalogs. Start up Steam and then select Library and right at the bottom is X Rebirth Tools. Install them.
Then select X Rebirth Tools from the Steam menu and pick the Catalog Tool from the drop down and Play it.
The Root folder for input files is the location of the game files. For 64 bit Windows 7 the game files are under
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\X Rebirth
Click on Import catalogs and highlight 02.cat and 06.cat
There should now be a list of files inside the Content window
Highlight everything in the library folder plus the scriptproperties.html file.
Click on Keep folder hierarchy
IMPORTANT You must save the files to a different location to the game files or your game might no longer work properly. If you do this by accident just delete the library folder again.
Click on Extract All
Go to the save location and double click the scriptproperties.html file and you should have a working help file.
Note. There are newer versions of the library files in 08.cat (v2.2) but these produce errors with the scriptproperties.html file from 02.cat
The XML Schema Definition files (*.xsd) are in the library folder that you just extracted.
If you want the latest xsd files (recommended) for Visual Studio then extract the library folder from the 08.cat file elsewhere and use those.
Hope this saves you some time

Yes you did provide a great overview
I was just going for a complete reply
The bit that I found difficult was knowing that the files that I needed were inside the cat files. I looked in the game folder and of course the library folder isn't there and neither is the help file.
Then there is knowing precisely which files you need from where and getting the right versions
Maybe the file information needs to be added to the Mission Director guide or the help and XSD files added to a separate download

This is excellent - I'm still not able to actually use scriptproperties.html, but at least I know it exists and how to get it.
At the moment, loading it in a browser displays a little input box and nothing happens when you type into that.
Chrome / Chromium gives this error:
Firefox works!

also extract your libraries-folder - it depends on files there.Phezzan wrote:At the moment, loading it in a browser displays a little input box and nothing happens when you type into that.
