Opens a Guild Wars 2 .dat file and allows the user to browse and extract its files. Currently it supports power-of-two textures, JPEG and WebP images, models, 126x64 ATEX textures, sound, sound bank, eula, strings, text and binary files.
When a .dat file is opened, it will first index the file. This makes it a lot faster to re-open the same .dat. Unfortunately, every time the .dat changes it will have to be re-indexed (for now).
Keep in mind that if you keep tree items expanded while the indexer is running, or while an index is being read, the process is a lot slower.
Also, when you first use find by file id function, the browser will appear to freeze. This is normal since it will need to expand all file tree in oder to search for given file id.
The modelviewer required GPU with OpenGL 3.3 support.
The latest binary can always be found Here
For Linux binary (Ubuntu 18.04), use this command to get required library.
sudo apt install libwebp libglew2.0 libopenal libmpg123 libvorbis libogg libfreetype6
For other Linux distribution, you have to compile it your self.
For instructions to compile Gw2Browser, see COMPILE.md for detail.
It can be started with:
Gw2Browser <input dat>
If <input dat> is given, the program will open the file as soon as it starts.
-
Viewing or exporting some model may crash the browser. This possibly cause by the file is in difference version and gw2formats library doesn't support it, or more likely, a bug in gw2formats library. This issue might fixed on next Gw2Browser release.
-
Model rendering is still experimental stage. Some of the model may use the wrong texture, or it might not. It entirely depends on what model you view, as some models don't have any references to textures (mostly equipment, player character parts models). Some models also use the second UV channel for rendering while the shader in the browser only uses the first. Loading any model is also far from optimized!
-
Non-power-of-two textures are unsupported at the moment. Decompressing one produces garbage blocks. Well, except 126x64 ATEX files. Probably they use custom format for NPOT texture.
-
Some sound data in bank file(s) and text data in string file(s) are unsupported. The data are encrypted, each entry/files have difference encryption keys that received from the server.
