Data Format
What format is the data in the game available in?
Can you access all of the current unit and spell informtion in an easy way (like XML)?
Can you get all the unit sprites directly? I know in Dom2, I had to make them by taking screen shots.
Lastly... is it possible to get access to any of this data before the game is released?
I'd like to make an online unit viewer (which could eventually grow into other things). I had planned this for Dom2 but process of extracting the data was tedious and my time was lacking. My knowledge of data driven applications had grown a lot in two years and if the data is easily available I don't think it would be a huge drain to create it now. Plus the timing would seem to be much better (getting it done close to the game release) vs months later.
