Developers

Only for modders/developers who plan on forking/modifying/downloading the project.

There are 3 projects in this repository:

• TelltaleTextureTool is the currently-maintained application with a GUI built with Avalonia UI. It has the latest features and improvements.

The other 2 projects are located in the Archive folder.

• D3DTX_TextureConverter is an older CLI app version of the tool, which is not recommended to use. It can be still used for some of the latest Telltale games.
• TextureMod_GUI is the original GUI application built with WPF (Mahapps). It is not recommended to use as it's extremely outdated.

We utilize Hexa.NET.DirectXTex, a .NET wrapper of DirectXTex, allowing us to work better with texture files.

v2.5.0 will not have a CLI version, while v2.4.0 does support it.

If you want to learn about the D3DTX file format we suggest you looking here. The classes there are well documented and describe the D3DTX format. Preferably, start with D3DTX_V9.cs and go upwards. There is also the official documentation. Direct Surface Draw (.dds) is a Microsoft file format, which is described in detail here.

Credits

• Thanks to Ivan Panayotov for creating the new GUI and its features, adding support for possibly all games, which include mobile and console platforms, and creating the new documentation.
• Thanks to David Matos for his original work on the old converter and its wikipedia.
• Thanks to Mawrak for their work on the original GUI application and its wiki, testing the software and providing critical feedback.
• Thanks to Lucas Saragosa for figuring out the Telltale formats and for his help for parsing the D3DTX correctly for all supported games. His TelltaleToolLib project served as a reference, which had a lot of influence in the conversion process.
• Thanks to Knollad Knolladious for his outstanding feedback, research and knowledge. His discoveries from Minecraft: Story mode series led to support other texture layouts, console and mobile platforms, as well as many other things.
• Thanks to Arrizble for creating a tutorial, testing the software on Minecraft: Story mode series and providing critical feedback.
• Thanks to Juna Meinhold for their cross-platform DirectXTex wrapper.
• Thanks to the DirectXTexNet's authors for providing an amazing stable and reliable wrapper.
• Thanks to Chuck Walbourn for DirectXTex and adding support for obsolete Direct3D9 formats, which are used by older Telltale games.
• Thanks to SVG Repo for their amazing GUI icons.

Current Developer Note

Special thanks to David for introducing me to the Telltale Modding Community and modding as a whole, and for being a good mentor along the way. Special thanks to Lucas for helping me add support for older games and made me understand the Telltale Tool Engine better.
