Using Data Utility

Most of the instructions below assume you have an open and properly configured instance of Grimoire

Opening the Rappelz file index (data.000)

The data.000 can be opened in a couple ways:

1. Click the Load button
2. In Windows Explorer locate the desired data.000 and drag it on-top of the data tab.
3. Press the CTRL + O key combination

Creating new data.xxx

(Please note new data files will be created in the output folder, if backups is toggled than any existing data.xxx in this directory will be preserved, otherwise they will be overwritten)

1. Open a new Data tab
2. Click Newor press the CTRL + N key combination
3. Select the folder containing a dump
   1. The folder should contain files categorized by the extension
   2. e.g. cob/dds/jpg etc
   3. Any files out of place will cause File Not Found exceptions. (e.g. a .nfe file located in the /nfm/ directory!)
4. Wait til complete!

Rebuild / Shrink client data.xxx

1. Open new Data tab
2. Open a data.000 index
3. Click Rebuild or press the CTRL + R key combination
4. Follow steps of the rebuild wizard

Exporting Files

1. Right click All in the extensions list and click Export

or

1. Locate the specific extension you want to export and right click it and click Export

or

1. Search for or otherwise scroll to and select (you may select more than 1) then right click after selecting desired files and click Export

Comparing files

1. Search for or scroll to the desired file
2. Right click the file grid and click Compare

!!! It should be noted, this currently will not function for rdb due to the header date changing! !!!

Inserting/Deleting files

1. Search for or scroll to the desired file (for delete)
2. Right click the grid and select Insert/Delete
3. Follow prompts

You can also simply drag new files (to be inserted) directly onto a loaded data index

Using RDB Utility

Most of the instructions below assume you have an open and properly configured instance of Grimoire

Opening RDB

RDB data can be loaded in multiple ways:

1. Click the Load button
2. Click the File button and select the desired .rdb

or

1. Locate the .rdb in in Windows Explorer
2. Drag it onto a clean .rdb tab

or

1. Press CTRL + O to open File Dialogue
2. Select the desired .rdb

or

1. Locate client directory containing desired .rdb
2. Load the index (data.000) in the same way a normal rdb would be loaded
3. Select the desired RDB from the list of selectable rdb (contained in this client)

or

1. Click the Load button
2. Click the SQL button

Saving RDB

Before saving you should make sure you have (ascii) / encrypted (buttons on the toolbar of the rdb tab) are set properly.

1. Click the Save button
2. Hover mouse over File
3. Select appropriate type to save as.

or

1. Press the CTRL + S key combination

Searching

To find a specific value in a specific field, simply press CTRL + F. Select the desired field and enter the desired value to be matched, then press OK. If the value exists, it will be automatically selected.

Sorting

Click the column header to sort, clicking it again will reverse the sort order.

Editing Bit Flags

Grimoire has the ability to launch the Bit Flag Utility from within an rdb tab instance, to enable this simply see the example given in the ItemResource72.lua (structure)

{"item_use_flag", INT32, flag=BIT_FLAG, opt={ "use_flags_under_81" }},

The bit flag utility accepts any 4 byte integer as a value, so if you have a field such as the "item_use_flag" who has the fieldtype "INT32" you can add the flag "BIT_FLAG" to it, this specifies that when you right click on this field in a loaded RDB tab, you can then click "Open w/ Flag Editor"

You can go further than this by specifying the opt variable and giving it the name of the default flag list (.txt) we want to be loaded to process the value in the current cell.

Using Hash Utility

You should make sure you have properly configured the Hash Utility related settings

Single Name (Real Time) Hashing

1. Locate the 'Instant' group of controls. (Upper left hand corner of the tab)
2. Enter a plain-text or hashed name

The opposite will be generated in the 'Output' textbox. (You can also use the flip button to flip the results)

Multiple File Hashing

You can load files to be converted into the Hash Utility in multiple ways:

1. Locate the file'(s) in Windows Explorer
2. Select the file'(s) and drag them onto the 'Multi-File' grid
3. (If 'Auto-Convert' is not enabled) Right click the grid and hover over 'Convert'
4. Click All

or

1. Locate the folder containing files to be hashed in Windows Explorerer
2. Drag the folder onto the Multi-File grid
3. (If 'Auto-Convert' is not enabled) Right click the grid and hover over Convert
4. Click All

Add/Remove (ascii)

During the name conversion (hashing) process, you can append (ascii) to all files being convert by simply enabling the 'Append (ascii)' radio button in the 'Name Options' groupbox.

Using Bit Flag Editor

1. Open the Bit Flag Editor from the Utilities menu
2. Select the desired flag list 3 Modify flag selection as desired
   1. Copy output
   2. Paste flag into the Input/Output text box to decode

Using Dump Updater

(Make sure that you have configured settings related to this utility before use!)

1. Open the Dump Updater from the Utilities menu
   1. Verify the Dump Directory is the desired directory
2. Drag-N-Drop Folder (or files) onto the utility
   1. Check the listed files and remove any unwanted/accidental additions
3. Click Copy then confirm you want to start the process!

Using SPR Generator

1. Open the SPR Generator from the Utilities menu
2. Select the type of SPR you want to generate
3. Click Generate

(The utility will compare item/skill/state icon listings in the database to the dump directory listed in your settings to determine if a matching icon actually exists. If a matching icon is not found the icon will not be listed in the generated spr!)

Using XOR Editor

1. Open the XOR Editor from the Utilities menu
2. Load XOR Key
   1. You can load the Default key, a key stored in a key file or the key stored in your Config.json if applicable
3. Edit the key as desired
   1. The unResourceEncodeKey is updated in real time
   2. If generating a new key for the sframe, you can right click the hex editor and click Copy and simply paste the copied output into the XORen.cpp::szResourceEncodeKey (do the same for the unResourceEncodeKey)
4. Save the key
   1. You can save the key directly to the Config.json as-well as a key file (which can be shared with developers on your team)
   2. Generated key files do not automatically save into the Config.json!!! (This goes for loading them as-well!)

Using Modified XOR Key

If you have modified the szResourceEncodeKey / unResourceEncodeKey of your SFrame.exe XORen.cpp you will need to provide this modified key to Grimoire in order to create and load custom data.xxx files.
