What is a .CPN file?

The .CPN file extension is used for a type of file called an Age of Mythology Campaign File. This file is associated with the video game Age of Mythology, which is a real-time strategy game. In this game, players are tasked with building their own kingdoms, managing resources, and controlling armies to achieve various objectives.

A .CPN file contains important data for the game's campaigns. These campaigns are a series of connected scenarios or missions that players can play through in the game. Each .CPN file includes one or more .SCN files, which are individual scenario files that detail specific missions within the campaign. Additionally, the .CPN file holds descriptions of these scenarios, the name of the campaign, its version, and the total number of scenarios it includes. Players can also create and save their custom campaigns in these files.

To open a .CPN file, you can use several programs, primarily those related to the games that recognize this file type. The main program is Microsoft Age of Mythology, the game for which these files were specifically designed. However, .CPN files can also be opened with Microsoft Age of Empires and Microsoft Age of Empires II, as these games use a similar format for their campaign files. Another tool that can work with .CPN files is CPNBUILD, which is used for building or modifying campaign files.

In summary, if you have a .CPN file, you are dealing with a campaign file for Age of Mythology or similar games from the Age of Empires series. You can open these files using the game itself or specific tools designed for managing campaign files.
