Features

Source Engine Map Compiler

• Easy to use UI for VBSP, VVIS and VRAD settings
• Automatic map versioning support with choice of versioning format - Version with date (yyyyMMdd) or incrementing build number
• Supports patched VRAD for improved multi-core performance
• BSPZIP Resource Packing UI with optional intelligent packing mode - allows for only used files to be packed into a BSP
• Automatic file/asset templating - allowing for map specific files to be generated and contents to be replaced via the use of tokens
• BSP Repack support - to further compress data within a BSP
• Shareable compiler settings support - allows you to share your map compile settings with your team
• Realtime output from compiler processes, organised into its own process tab so you can view logs easier
• Integrated game launcher support - once your map compiles you can load the map into the game engine directly from Tsukuru

SourceMod Plugin Compiler

• Easy to use UI for batch plugin compiles
• Ability to execute a CMD file after a build completes for automation
• Automatic build / version number management
• Copy plugins to clipboard on successful compile

Translations

• Import your SourceMod translations into a single project file - this allows for easier maintainability
• Export from a translation project into SourceMod translation files - this allows for you to export translations back into SourceMod from a translation project file. An example implementation of this is the Gemidyne Contributor Portal which allows contributors to edit translations.

Having issues with your VPROJECT environment variable?

Please ensure that a User environment variable is set with the name "VPROJECT". Tsukuru expects a User environment variable, instead of a System environment variable.

The VPROJECT user env variable must be set to the game directory.
