PackBSP: Easy custom content packing [Updated Mar 25th 2011]

[Terr]

Weird, that doesn't look familiar. I'll try adding a bit more to the README file, but could you post the whole thing in [code] tags?

It sounds like it's encountering some unexpected output from Valve's vbspinfo program.

[Terr]

New version. Lots of changes under the hood to deal with new wrinkles and edge-cases. Does not use vbspinfo anymore--moved all that to custom code. In some cases can be useful even if Steam is not running. (Although you'd still need Steam to use BspZip.)

Nice and easy, I love it!

Thanks, but the next one will be even better. It'll whiten your teeth while you sleep! (Actually, it just adds a specular map and alters tint values. )

Current progress/todo:

• Rewrite parsing code for Valve text formats (Soundscape, Particles, Materials, etc.) to be a lot less strict. [90%]
• Write parsing code for FGDs and API to look at their data [80%]
• Add support FGDs inheriting/extending drom other FGDs
• Re-implement Valve's SDK launcher functionality
  
  • Change GUI to prompt for Engine/Game the same way the SDK launcher does.
  • Parse SDK "GameConfig" files
• Write code to tie the existing map-entity information together with the FGD API, to discover dependencies based on FGD information

Yeee-ep. It's open-sourced now too, so if anybody knows some Java and has an itch they need it to scratch...
