FVP tools

Tools for translating games based on FVP engine.

bin_archiver

BIN archive packer and unpacker. Does not convert images for performance reasons: if you often need to repack, converting all images would take too much time. Instead, you select one image to convert, and then pack the files.

NOTE: when packing, make sure the folder doesn't contain any files other than files unpacked from original archive, otherwise the game will crash. This is a limitation of FVP games since they expect a fixed number of files.

nvsg_converter

Image converter. Converts image files to png and vice versa. For mass conversion, use shell scripts:

mkdir converted
cd folder
for x in *; do
    ../nvsg_converter --decode "$x" ../converted/"$x.png"
done

will convert everything in folder to PNG.

Caveats:

1. NVSG images have no extensions (like pretty much everything else in FVP games).
2. You must pass -x and -y, and optionally --image_count when encoding images back, or there are good chances your graphic won't be rendered.

hcb_compiler

Script (de)compiler (original author - SaintLouisX)

There are known problems with the script compiler. For another compiler, see akerou/fvp.

Modifications from original version:

• Python 3 support
• Heavily optimized (compiling is about 5x faster, decompiling about 2x faster)
• Better user friendliness (no more exceptions when running without arguments)
• Simplified code structure so it's much easier to add support for possible new features
