A way to edit an exported 2d game
Hello I am a student from Harllee Middle School and I have accidentally wrecked two 2d levels but I have a former game that can work for what I need and it is exported onto a DVD. This is amazing exept for the fact that I need to modify 3d text. If anyone knows how to modify an exported game that would be amazing.

You can modify it with a hex editor. If it's just text you're trying to change, it might work, although the number of characters will have to be exactly the same.
I hate to judge, but... do you know the chances that a middle school student knows how to use a hex editor? :P
@SpikeX: even if the student doesn't know how, the student might know someone who does. Plus it's general information...this isn't the first time I've seen this question. (Apparently "version control" or "backups" doesn't occur to some people....)
@spikeX we should provide information as correct and clear as possible. no matter the person that asked it can understand it or not. however i think in this case, unity applies encoding and you can not change the value of a serialized class. i did not test it before.
@Ashkan: I just tested changing some 3D text with a hex editor, and it was trivial to do. But like I said, you can't add or remove characters, you can only change the ones that already exist.

You can't modify a game once it's been compiled by Unity, and you can't decompile it. I'm not sure what you're trying to do, but you're going to have to find another way to do it.

I'm sorry but this isn't going to work. You are just going to have to redo the stuff you wrecked. :(
