I used the program to edit pp.dat Pvz2, but it did not open the game about reton

If you can please upload your file, it's more useful than screenshot open in Notepad++

Hello there,

I have the same issue.

-> copy pp.dat from phone to desktop
-> run rton2json
-> edit
-> run json2rton
-> rename to pp.dat
-> copy to phone
-> black screen, app shuts down

Used with the newest 3.1.2 release.

I've added my original pp.dat (pp_original.dat), the modified pp.json and the new pp.dat into this Google Drive.
Hope it helps.

Firstly RETON seems to have sorted the keys which is not supposed to happen, this might shuffle #comments around.
However a much bigger problem seems to be the fact that not the correct data types are used, this will require manual configuration and a major code rewrite ...
This is what my tool spits out (https://github.com/Nineteendo/PVZ2tools/tree/master/RTONS_PARSER, https://github.com/Nineteendo/PVZ2tools/tree/master/JSONS_PARSER):
pvz2-rton2json.zip

Conversions that happened (> = my tools, >RTON> = your tool):
Unmodified(pp_original.dat > pp_original.json > pp_original_from_rton.dat)
Modified(pp.json >RETON> pp.dat > pp_from_json.dat > pp_from_json_from_rton.dat)
Modified(pp.json > pp_from_rton.dat) webfussel should be able to use this if still interested

Note that my tool is not perfect, just a few bytes get changed.

Can you try it again with 3.1.3?

About the sorted keys: it's a bug because I using std::map to save the json data when converting json to rton, it should be fixed by 3.1.3 release (I switch to nlohmann::fifo_map)

And the other part, the data type: this kinda headache because

• We can't infer the data type from json format
• By default, RETON using the upper bound limit of the data type (e.g use double for real number instead of float, use 8-byte RTON number for integer) to cover as widest range as possible
• However, some specific RTON keys appear to have predefined data type, maybe I can try to implement this into RETON?

Well, I think the format is not so strict as first imagined.
You don't have to use the predefined datatype, but you do have to respect the RTON format.

Maybe it was just the fact that the keys were sorted, I will check at 17 hours which files are accepted.
