Adapting X-Edit for Use With Other Games?

[KoolHndLuke]

Can it be done for other games using the Gamebryo engine? What are the limitations? I mean, I love this program. But, I have no idea how most of it works. It would be awesome as a sort of universal game editor!

xEdit is pretty universal for the games that use the esX data format.

So most of the Bethesda games and a few (very few) other games based on Gamebryo variants.

 

Not all games based on Gamebryo are using this format for the data files.

How hard do you think it is to make something like X-Edit in the first place? I mean if it uses the same functions, just with a different format like you say. Do all games load the same way and stuff?
