XML Mass Changing Type Hexadecimal

So I have 80 000 lines of XML. They follow this general structure:

<Object type="0xa14" id="Steel Dagger">
<Class>Equipment</Class>
<Item/>
<Texture>
<File>lofiObj5</File>
<Index>0x60</Index>
</Texture>
<SlotType>2</SlotType>
<Tier>0</Tier>
<Description>{equip.A_sharp_dagger_made_of_steel.}</Description>
<RateOfFire>1</RateOfFire>
<Sound>weapon/blunt_dagger</Sound>
<Projectile>
<ObjectId>Blade</ObjectId>
<Speed>140</Speed>
<MinDamage>20</MinDamage>
<MaxDamage>60</MaxDamage>
<LifetimeMS>400</LifetimeMS>
</Projectile>
<BagType>1</BagType>
<OldSound>daggerSwing</OldSound>
<feedPower>5</feedPower>
<DisplayId>{equip.Steel_Dagger}</DisplayId>


But what I want to do is change all the types of the XML.

The type is this part:

type="0xa14"


I want them to start from the beginning (first XML) with 0x00 then increase by 1 in hexadecimal until it reaches the end.

Here is the pure pastebin of the XML file:
XML Github File

"0xa14" has 3 hex characters, "0x00" has 2, please explain

Simple using xml linq :

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Xml;
using System.Xml.Linq;

namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
class Program
{
const string FILENAME = @"c:temptest.xml";
static void Main(string args)
{
XDocument doc = XDocument.Load(FILENAME);

int index = 0;
foreach(XElement obj in doc.Descendants("Object"))
{
obj.SetAttributeValue("type", "0x" + index++.ToString("x"));
}
}
}
}


You can use XDocument and update all type attributes in the loop

type

var document = XDocument.Load(@"pathToFile");
var index = 1;
foreach (var ground in document.Descendants("Ground"))
{
ground.Attribute("type").Value = index.ToString("X");
// 'X' convert integer to hexadecimal representation
index++;
}

document.Save(@"pathToUpdatedFile");
