A collection of handmade tools for the VN engine I call "TS System"

ts-system-tools

A collection of tools for the VN engine I call "TS System" (used in the eroge "Tropical Kiss")

This repository currently contains:

• A python script for unpacking and repacking the resource archives (.pak) (pak-tools/python)
• A C++ program that does exactly the same (pak-tools/cpp)
• A C++ program to decrypt the Scenario.dat file
• A C++ program to disassemble the Scenario.dat into readable, assembly-like code (I call this code TSA for TS assembly)
• A C++ program to reassemble modified scenario files into a .dat file that the game accepts
• A python "library" to work with scenario.dat files (ts-py)

Wiki

The wiki contains much useful information if you want to know how the scripting system works. I am updating it frequently (or at least: as frequent as I am working on this project) and it usually contains my state of knowledge.

Building

I am sorry to say that I did not yet put much effort into a comfortable build system or anything, for now the C++ projects are just regular VS project files. You will have to tweak the settings for the individual projects by yourself (especially mind the include paths, library paths and used dlls). The good news is that the program currently consists of very few files, so even building with g++ and command line should not be too hard to achieve.

If you are using Win64, you should try the binary release though. I didn't try it on another pc, but it should work. Please create an issue if it doesn't.

External libraries I am using:

• ICU for converting between Shift-JIS and UTF-8 encoding
• RE/flex for the unicode supporting lexical analyzer

Disclaimer

Everything is highly experimental, especially the TSA-assembler. I have not yet fully decoded all the opcodes, but for now everything I tried worked fine. If you have ideas or problems, feel free to contact me, open an issue or modify the code in any way you like.

ts-system-tools's Issues

Game translation

Thank you for all the tools you have made. They're amazing. Currently, I want to translate TOPCAT's game into my native language, but there are no tools that can disassemble the script files or repack the archive files.
I'd be very appreciative if you could make a tool for their engine.
