CTX

CTX is the file format of an ICE encoded script. Most source multiplayer games use ICE encryption for weapon scripts and other gameplay modifying files, a good example of this is in Team Fortress 2. Once there is a CTX file present, the engine will only read from CTX files for that category (eg Weapon Scripts) even if the txt version is present, or there are some CTX files missing.
Day of Defeat: Source will only read from CTX weapon scripts, and will ignore all TXT weapon scripts, even if the CTX weapon scripts are removed from the VPK.
