A C2H file (having the extension .c2h) is the file format where Chip's Challenge 2 stores the best scores and times for each level.
The file is a binary file consisting of several sections one after the other, terminated by the END section. Each section begins with a section header, which is followed by the section's data. Each level in the set that the player has encountered has its own copy of the FILE, TYPE, NAME and SAVE sections.
All data in the file is little-endian.
Format
Section header
| Bytes | Content |
|---|---|
| 4 | Four character code identifying the section, see table below. Codes shorter than 4 characters (such as "END") are padded with spaces (making "END " in this case). |
| 4 | The length of the section's data |
Section types
| Section ID | Content Type | Content |
|---|---|---|
| CC2H | Null-terminated string | The file's version. The latest version is "7". |
| FILE | Null-terminated string | The level's file name |
| TYPE | Null-terminated string | Usually the name of the levelset. For the base game, it's "Chips Challenge 2". In some cases it contains an empty string. |
| NAME | Null-terminated string | The level's title |
| SAVE | 100 bytes | Miscellaneous data |
| END | No content (length is 0) | Signifies end of file |
