This .NET library provides easy access to data stored in the BFRES Nintendo graphics archive file format (most prominently used to store 3D game models), allows to modify the data and save new files.
More details are found on the wiki.
- Load all subfiles and their sections of a BFRES file (Wii U versions 3.x).
- Helper classes simplify modifying data sections, like
VertexBufferHelperallowing strongly-typed access to editVertexBufferdata. - Save new or modified BFRES files written from scratch.
- Quickly run scripts on BFRES files able to access the whole API with the ResScript tool.
- Parse BFRES files visually in 010 Editor with the provided binary templates.
The following features are not yet implemented, but planned:
- Simplified modification of
AnimCurveinstances and better handling of key data. - Classes mapping typical
ExternalFilecontents (like BFSHA shader data), manually loadable on demand.
The following features are not planned:
- Accessing raw header data (like file offsets). Since this can be useful for injection tools, it might be implemented on demand (please submit a feature request).
- Deswizzling texture data.
- Implementing the Switch BFRES format due to substantial changes in it, another library may target this in the future.
It is not required to download the library in source and compile it yourself, as a typically up-to-date NuGet package exists.
