Tool for the conversion of txt files to binary files?

Hello, I'm wondering whether anyone has a tool which allows for the conversion of txt files to binary files? Or a tutorial which would teach me how-to?

Are there no other easier tools or measures? And can someone give me a tutorial on how to use DataConvert?

Or you could just leave your files in txt. The game reads txt just fine, just a bit slower on the loading screen. Depending on how much you changed.

I'm attempting to modify a number of models, you see, but Stannum's 2.0 3ds Max importer/exporter of SOASE can only read binary files as it seems. If anyone has another 3ds Max importer that can read both txt and binary meshes, please link me to it.

Harpo, is there a tutorial for using your pack? There's some 99 files in it and I'm having trouble sifting through them all.

do NOT use the convertdata exe's just the small exe's, just the ones with colour icons eg sinstextbinner.exe, sins manifest maker for mods.exe, harpos_SINS_mod_updater.exe, sinsmapupdater.exe, and sins_stringer.exe.
