The main viewing window and File/SCD injectors are not fully Index2 aware.

Currently we can open index2's in either windows, but they do not resolve back to their original paths as hashdb has no way to currently support recording already known full paths.

Additionally, the injectors only modify either an index or index2, and not as a group, which would result in the game client effectively calling different files at different times due to the fact it uses both indexes when reading files

Tentatively the plan is to eventually remove Music Swapper and File Injector entirely due to multiple major issues in them:

  • They cannot open most of the larger volumes without choking on load
  • It becomes very difficult to locate any given file as the file list grows, especially if there are multiple files with the same/similar names in different folders.

Eventually File Injector will be replaced by a simple file compressor that emits a raw file for other tools to handle file injection. Music swapper will simply sequence SCDs and then pass them to the file compressor.
