I'm not a dev, i just have a question. I have always been able to open all renpy game files (like the script) in notepad and edit them. But now for some reason every one i open have symbols and other characters and doesnt show the actual script anymore. Even ones that i have already altered in the past. What happened? Why are the files like this now? i tried taking ownership, using renpy, notepad++, and decompiling but the weird symbols are still there no matter what i do.
Here is an example of what i mean. It all looks like this now instead of just plain text like it used to be.

looks like you are trying to open the rpyc file instead of rpy file

Is rpyc/rpy it the same as .pyo? Because the file say .pyo.... i know how to us a converter to convert from rpyc tp rpy. i just don't know if its the same as a pyo

Nevermind i got it. i just had to open with python script, instead of just the pyo file
