I'm trying to write a script to create custom fields automaticaly for my games but I can't find where they are stored. I assumed they would be in metadata.xml but can't find them there.

Anyone can help with that?

Thanks! :)

CustomField elements get added to Data/Platforms/<platform_name>.xml

Wow messing with that will suck. Thanks a lot!

You could always write a simple plugin instead of a script. There is a method to add custom fields for a game which might be easier/safer than trying to directly edit your XML data files.
