A tool for converting Grim Dawn '.PFX' files (which contain VFX data) into '.JSON' files (and vice versa), allowing you to edit/manipulate them with external automated tools or scripts.
For information on the raw PFX binary file-format (if you want to handle/parse the raw data yourself), there should be a PFX_FILE_FORMAT text-file included in the python-script folder, or you can check this article on the mod's page.
Features
The tool includes both an original python-script version, and a compiled .exe for Windows 64-bit (created with PYInstaller).
The tool can convert '.PFX' files to '.JSON' files (and vice-versa), allowing you to deal with the JSON data in other external tools/scripts and then convert it back to the PFX format for use with the game (and for further editing/previewing with the 'PSEditor.exe' tool that is included with the game).
The tool supports 3 primary methods of usage:
- You can run it directly to open a file-selection dialog for converting files
- You can drag-and-drop files onto it for converting files
- You can run the tool from the command-line with various arguments
The release .zip file contains 2 folders with different versions of the tool, one contains the base python-script if you have python installed on your machine, alternatively for those without python installed there's a compiled .exe Windows x64 version (created with PYInstaller). You can just extract the version you want somewhere, and then run/interact with either the python-script or executable in the base folder.
