In the last two articles I explained in detail what the ATTRIBUTEZ.TXT and CHEATZ.TXT files are and how to read them. They’re encrypted configuration files located in the GRUNTZ.REZ archive. The Gruntz Decryptor allows these files to be modified – you can now decrypt such file, change any parameters of interest and encrypt it back again, so that Gruntz is able to properly read them. The program also automatically decodes all cheat codes so that you can freely modify them and add your own.

Only the ATTRIBUTEZ.TXT file is really loaded and used by the game – the CHEATZ.TXT file is just a relic from the game development. Because of that the option of encrypting the CHEATZ.TXT file might seem superfluous; I’ve decided to include it however for completeness’ sake.
