Tool written in C# based on Kelnor277 XCOM save game parser (see it here: https://github.com/Kelnor277/Xcom2012SoldierViewer )
Main features:
- allows to open and browse roster;
- allows to export roster to the CSV (comma-searated format);
- unicode support: save parser adopted to UTF-7 and UCS-2 names and now compatible with Enhanced Name List mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/xcom/mods/505);
Requirements:
You must have .NET Framework 4.5.2 or newer to have this tool working. If you have issues with starting application, make sure that you right-clicked downloaded archive and unlocked it.
Make sure that folder where you unpacked program is writeable: program unpacks saves in order to parse them to the tool install directory.
Usage:
You MUST open strategic-view savegame for exporting roster.
1. Run application
2. Use File->Open command and point to the strategic-view savegame
3. When roster is successfully opened you can brows your soldiers and export them to CSV using File->Export command.
To open your exported roster as Excel sheet you shoud run Excel then open your exported file. Then specify that data has headers and then select 'comma' as separator. Your roster will be opened and you can do whatever you want with this data.
Next plans:
Write simple command-line tool that will not require .NET Framework.
