This tool rips data tables from a rom to CSV format
using a nightmare module as a template.
Note that you can use EA definitions instead of numbers
in your cells. NMM2CSV comes with a basic definitions file called
"Table Definitions.txt". You can add your own definitions
to this document, replace and/or include your own.
Place your .nmm files in the same parent directory as
the rom you wish to rip from (subdirectories included)
and simply drag and drop the rom onto n2c.exe.
This will generate a CSV file for each nmm in the folder,
which you can edit with any spreadsheet software e.g.
Excel or Google Docs.
Place C2EA.exe in the same parent directory as your NMM
and CSV files, and run it. It will create .event files
for each table, and an EA installer file called
"Table Installer.txt" which can install the tables
or be #included in a project buildfile.
The first cell of the CSV table contains the offset of the
table in the ROM. By default this is the same as in the
NMM, but you can change this if you have repointed your
table. You can also input a #defined value, e.g. ItemTable
where you have "#define ItemTable "
in your definitions file.
