Modding Tools and Resources Thread - DoctorX Call of The Zone mod for S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call of Pripyat

AXR Toolset Github.com

Alundaio's essential toolkit for modding STALKER files. Contains several tools including:

DB Tool: The first step for anyone modifying STALKER games. DB Tool can be used to extract the db files to an editable format.
Converter: Useful for converting different file types to those that are used in STALKER development.
OGF Viewer: For viewing and editing attributes of models and meshes.
THM Viewer: For viewing and editing attributes of texture support files.

Universal ACDC 1.38 Moddb.com

For compiling and decompiling the all.spawn file that contains data on static spawns in the game. You will need to install ActivePerl to use this tool.
Note: Whenever you make a change to the all.spawn file a new game is required, previous saves will not work.

SAVandT 1.1 Metacognix.com (scroll all the way to the bottom of the page to find it)

The .ogg sound files in STALKER require special comments to play correctly. This tool allows you to add and edit those comments.

X-Ray CoP SDK Files.gsc-game.com
CoP SDK Unofficial Patch Stalkerin.gameru.net

The clunky, crashy, and mostly outdated SDK that was designed for Call of Pripyat, but there are still some useful tools. Most addon developers will not need to use this unless you plan on doing level editing or model editing. Make sure to run the tools from the .cmd files in the \editors folder

Comment décompresser les fichiers DB pour avoir un gamedata?Et quel logiciel?.Merci d'avance

I put this in the comments reply, but it can be usefull in this thread too :

Github.com
click on Clone -> Download ZIP to download the program.
Extract.
In the extracted directory double click on "launcher.exe" then select "DB Tool"
Click on the [...] button in the "Input" category and browse to the folder where the .db files you want to be extracted are and press OK

Click on the [...] button in the "Output" category and browse to the folder you want your .db extracted to and press OK

Now on the bottom click on "Execute".
Wait until the db files are all extracted "in the dos prompt there will be an "Unpacking Finished" message.

A quick tip for the AXR Toolkit's DB extractor: the script will extract all .db files in the target folder so if you only want to extract one or two of them, copy them to a temp folder before you run it or temporarily rename the .db files you don't want to extract to dbname.OLD (don't forget to change them back when you're done, lol 😁).
