    There's no documentation for this. The maps are in binary format, it's not very hard to reverse engineer. I'm not a real programmer and I managed to make a small program independently to re-align vertices to the grid to solve a rounding problem with the editor...

    If you want examples, Onos Ate Me manipulated part of the .level files in his <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=115410" target="_blank">Radiance mod</a>, he published the source code, so you may be able to take a look.
