    Please, don't tell me this has anything to do with texturing models... :(

    Thank you for your response!

    It's a compressed .dae, for caching.

    I'm not really sure, but I doubt it. The devs should release a tool that converts .cdae back to .dae.

    Why? Does the game not include DAE for every CDAE? In that case simply ignore the CDAE.

    A few mods have been released using .cdae, and people have lost track of their 3d models (don't ask me), and reasons(?). I think @Dummiesman would do a better job explaining.

    Edit: I said wrong things earlier.

    Cdae, as said by somebody above, stands for Cache DAE.
    I recall it's meant to help speeding up the loading of DAE files.
    If you load a DAE for the first time, a Cdae gets generated.

    AFAIK, Cdae > DAE is not a thing, but I may be wrong.
