<p>GCF (Assumed to stand for Game Cache File) files can best be compared to a virtual file
system not unlike FAT or other common file systems. The virtual file system supports meta
data, file fragments, checksums and other minor features. GCF files are the backbone of
Steam's content delivery system.</p>

</td>

<td width="24" valign="top">
<center><b>A.</b></center>
</td>
<td valign="top">
<p>GCFScape uses a technique called file mapping to directly access data in a GCF file as you
would data in memory. This is a useful technique because it means GCFScape doesn't have to
read tons of data into memory to read a GCF file and it can read a GCF file without having
to seek all over the place.</p>
<p>Because Steam opens GCF files in read/write mode and is liable to change the contents of
any GCF file at any time, GCFScape requires that you close Steam. If Steam was open and it
changed the contents of a GCF file while it was mapped, GCFScape would become unstable and
likely crash.</p>

</td>

<td width="24" valign="top">
<center><b>A.</b></center>
</td>
<td valign="top">
<p>GCFScape requires strict read rights to a package file to maintain stability. Make sure the
package file is not open in any other program including Steam. As a work around you can
enable <b><i>Volatile Access</i></b> from the <i>Options</i> menu. Note: this may cause
GCFScape to become unstable if Steam is updating the package you have open.</p>

<p>GCFScape does not know how to read the GCF file version you are attempting to open. This
could be because it is an old GCF file version that I haven't yet added support for (due to
the fact that I don't know what the format is) or a new GCF file version that a recent Steam
update produced. Either way let me know.</p>

<p>As of yet, not enough is known about the GCF file format to programmatically create one.
There are still plenty of unknown fields that need an understanding before a GCF file can be
created. That said there is also no guarantee that creating a GCF file is all that is needed
for Steam to recognize and make use of it. Some other registration might be required and may
not be possible without hacking Steam. For these reasons I have no plans to add the ability
to create a GCF file.</p>

</td>

<td width="24" valign="top">
<center><b>A.</b></center>
</td>
<td valign="top">
<p>The purpose of the GCF file is to make it easy for Steam to update Valve's software. When a
new version of a program (say CS) is released, all Steam has to do is look in the CS GCF
file and compare versions (hashes) of each file to determine if each file needs to be added,
updated or removed. Because of this, if you were to modify a file, Steam would interpret
this as meaning that the file is out of date and redownload the correct version of the file.
</p>
<p>Steam does, however, provide an interface to add or overwrite a file. To add or overwrite a
file simply place it in the corresponding directory in the Steam\SteamApps\[EMail]\[GCF
File] directory on your hard drive. You might have to create the appropriate subdirectories.

************** JIT Debugging **************<br />
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this<br />
application or computer (machine.config) must have the<br />
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.<br />
The application must also be compiled with debugging<br />
enabled.<br />
<br />
For example:<br />
<br />
<configuration><br />
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" /><br />
</configuration><br />
<br />
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception<br />
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer<br />
rather than be handled by this dialog box.<br />
