This release is primarily small bug-fixes. Unfortunately,
screening out non-used static-prop skins is still not working until I
puzzle out more of the MDL format, sorry.
Changes
- Feature: Tries to auto-detect the Steam directory from the
Windows Registry. - Fix: Issue where if the same file exists in the game
directory and in the GCFs, it was being unnecessarily packed, even
if the file content is identical. Now such “harmless duplicates” are ignored and not
packed. (This is particularly important for TF2 maps using the old
Swamp Pack assets became officially adopted.) - Fix: Issue where model-skin paths contained an extra slash
due to how the QC options where written prior to compile. - Fix: VMTs legitimately provided in place of SPR files are now
parsed correctly to find depended-upon materials/textures. - Fix: Clientregistry.blob is no longer directly read, but
instead copied to a temporary file to avoid conflicts with
concurrent Steam operations. This can still fail if Steam is in the
middle of updating or downloading game data, but the error message
should be much clearer now. - Fix: Upgraded to use HlLib 2.4.0, fixing an issue where HlLib
could not extract from GCFs over 4gb in size.
Known issues:
- Ensure you have re-run the Source SDK and/or any mods you are working with
before using this program, because Valve occasionally updates their SDK and everything is in a broken-state
until their software is re-run. - “Locked” variations of TF2 control-point hud
icons (ending in _locked.vmt) are not discovered for
team_control_point. This is due to hidden behavior of the TF2
engine, and will require additional work to add “plug-ins”
that can solve this in an extensible manner. - Textures that are needed for custom particles are not
detected. This will require more work to parse PCF files.
