You will need to download and install Python 3+.

First, go into the non-webframework folder.

NOTE: If at any time you are lost, type into a command line

python main.py --help

And a help message will display.

To read in a HKI file, type the following into a terminal:

python main.py textFileToSaveInputsTo -i input_hki_file

NOTE: Make sure the input_hki_file ends with .hki! i.e. it has a HKI file extension.

To export a HKI file, type the following into a terminal:

python main.py textFileWithNewInputs -o output_hki_file

NOTE: Make sure the output_hki_file ends with .hki! i.e. it has a HKI file extension.

1. Go into where you installed Steam and Age of Empires 2. Usually, it is located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Age2HD\profiles
2. IMPORTANT: Make a backup of your profile0.hki file in case anything goes wrong! One way to make a backup is to copy profile0.hki file into another directory elsewhere.
3. After you made a backup of profile0.hki, place your newly exported hki file in this directory. Rename this new file profile0.hki, effectively replacing the old hki file.
4. Boot up Age of Empires 2. You should be good to go!
