What is CAPX file?
The CAPX file extension is used by the Construct 2 software platform to store game projects and their assets. Construct 2 is a development platform designed to help software engineers and designers create games with minimal effort. CAPX files are generated by the Construct 2 environment after a project is created or modified. This file extension contains a compressed file of all the assets and metadata for a Construct 2 project. [ ⏩ ] CAPX file extension
What is XML file?
XML (XML) is a markup language used for exchanging, storing, and defining data. XML files are plain text files that contain specific instructions and can be read by the MS Windows, macOS, and Linux/Unix operating systems. XML data is easy to use with other software applications for further editing or data manipulation. Because of the universality of XML, it is the native language for messaging protocols, webpages and software programs. [ ⏩ ] XML file extension
How to convert the file from CAPX to XML?
To successfully convert the CAPX file to XML, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.CAPX). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case XML (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than XML).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. CAPX to XML. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting CAPX files to XML files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension XML, while before this step we had the CAPX file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new XML file, or not.
