GFXFzip

This tool converts GFXF to zip and vice-versa.
It is a CLI tool, meaning there is no GUI and you must use a terminal i.e. PowerShell.

WARNING

ResourceLib is required for this tool. For more information, see the installation page.

7zip (or more specifically, it's shared library) is required for this tool. For more information, see the installation page.

Quickstart

Converting GFXF to zip:

GFXFzip convert <game> <input file path> <output file path>

The above command assumes that the .meta.JSON file is located at <input file path>.meta.JSON, to specify it, add the --metapath <meta file path> option.

If using the --folder option, <output file path> should be a path to a folder, and the tool will output the zip in that folder with the name <input file name>.zip.

Rebuilding zip to GFXF:

GFXFzip rebuild <game> <input file path> <output file path>

The above command will output the .meta.JSON file to <output file path>.meta.JSON, to specify it, add the --metapath <meta file out path> option.

If using the --folder option, <output file path> should be a path to a folder, and the tool will output the GFXF and meta.JSON in that folder with the name <hash of GFXF>.GFXF and <hash of GFXF>.GFXF.meta.JSON respectively.

The Zip File

A quick few notes about the zip file the tool outputs:

• There can only be one file ending with .gfx and the tool outputs this as the name of the .swf from the file hash (if available, otherwise it will be the <hash of GFXF>.gfx).
  • If there is more than one, the tool will fail to convert.
• The meta.json file only contains the hash of the file being input originally, it is required.
  • This is used when the --folder option is specified, to allow for tools like SMF to use this tool without knowing the file hash.
