ATAK v0.1.0 — Initial Release

First public release of the Anomaly Texture Analysis Kit — a texture compression
and backup utility for STALKER GAMMA modlists.

Download

  • Linux: atak-0.1.0-linux-x64.tar.gz
  • Windows: atak-0.1.0-windows-x64.zip

Installation

Linux:

tar -xzf atak-0.1.0-linux-x64.tar.gz
chmod +x atak-linux
./atak-linux

Windows: Extract the zip and run atak-windows.exe in Windows Terminal or PowerShell.

What's included

  • Backup and restore your GAMMA mods directory with LZMA compression
  • Scan your modlist for uncompressed DDS textures (~2000 in a typical GAMMA install)
  • Compress textures to BCn formats based on configurable profiles
  • Default profiles cover Normal Maps (BC5), UI/Icons (BC3), Diffuse (BC7)
  • Single-mod compression for safe testing before running on your full modlist

Known limitations

  • BC7 GPU acceleration is not available on Linux — CPU-only, ~40-60 min for large jobs. Change BC7 profiles to BC3 in profiles.json for faster compression with minimal quality difference
  • Windows build is community-tested — please open an issue if you hit problems
  • Default profiles cover common GAMMA texture conventions — feedback welcome on gaps
  • If the app crashes during backup or restore, 7-Zip may continue running in the background — run pkill 7zz (Linux) or check Task Manager (Windows)

Feedback

Post in the GAMMA Discord or open a GitHub issue. Profile improvements and
benchmark contributions especially welcome.
