How can I read these "json" files?

[Tommy29-08]

If I open these files via Editor I don´t unterstand. May be im to stupid to understand or are there any converter?

Converter to what? they're already plain text ( just encoded with UTF-16 ), what do you want them turned into?

Okay, technically im a noob as you See.
If i read a Setup via Editor its just chinese for me. I dont Unterstand what to change in a setup. for example tyre pressure is in this file something like 67 69 ...

what does it mean? I cant read it

Are you trying to apply the setups to a console or pc version of the game?

There are some files in ACC with json extension that are not true json, that's probably what you have opened.

Thank you guys!

I guess it's a bit unclear what you are trying to achieve? Did you download a setup or?

Sorry Frank, yes you are Right. I wanted to test a setup of you guys here. But probably i just dont able to read it correctly out of the file

You need to paste the setup to the correct folder. You go to Documents -> Assetto Corsa Competizione -> Setups -> [Car Name] -> [Track Name].
Just paste it to there and it will come available in game. if your car and track are not showing up in the Setups folder, just open up the game, start a session on the track / car combo you want and save a random setup, the game will then automatically create the folder.

If you just want to view a setup file or compare it to any other, you can use this tool:

json files open with Notepad.

I'd recommend using free tool notepad++ though it is not necessary in this case see comments above.
