nwn-lib-d
Multi-platform D library & tooling for handling Neverwinter Nights 1 & 2 resource files
Features
Command-line tools
nwn-lib-d tools are a set of command-line tools for manipulating Neverwinter Nights 2 files (and some NWN1 files). They are multi-platform (usable on Windows or GNU/Linux) and do not require the game to be installed.
[Download nwn-lib-d tools](https://github.com/CromFr/nwn-lib-d/releases)
nwn-gff
- Read / write GFF files (ifo, are, bic, uti, ...)
Format Parsing Serialization Comment gff
:whitecheckmark: :whitecheckmark: NWN binary. Generated binary file match exactly official NWN2 files (needs to be tested with NWN1) json
:whitecheckmark: :whitecheckmark: Json, compatible with Niv nwn-lib json_minified
:whitecheckmark: :whitecheckmark: Same as json
but minifiedpretty
:x: :whitecheckmark: Human-readable - Pros
- Pretty fast
- GFF nodes keeps their original ordering, making diffs very consistent
- Automated GFF modifications (set / add / remove nodes)
nwn-tlk
- Serialize TLK files to readable text.
Format Parsing Serialization Comment tlk
:whitecheckmark: :whitecheckmark: NWN TLK binary format text
:x: :whitecheckmark: Human-readable nwn-2da
- Check 2DA format
- Re-format / fix issues
- Merge rows into an existing 2DA
nwn-erf
- Create, extract or view ERF files (hak, erf, mod, pwc) in a reproducible manner (same content => same checksum).
- Pros
- By default sets the ERF buildDate field to a 0 value, to create reproducible erf files.
- Memory efficient (files are streamed, not copied into memory)
nwn-trn
- TRN/TRX experimental tool:
trrn-export
: Export the terrain mesh, textures and grasstrrn-import
: Import a terrain mesh, textures and grass into an existing TRN/TRX filewatr-import
: Export water meshwatr-import
: Import a water mesh into an existing TRN/TRX fileaswm-strip
: Reduce walkmesh data size by removing non-walkable triangle & related data. Can reduce LZMA-compressed files to 50% of their non-stripped size (depending on the amount of unused triangles of course).aswm-export-fancy
: Export custom walkmesh data into a colored wavefront objaswm-export
: Export walkable walkmesh into a wavefront objaswm-import
: Import a wavefront obj as the walkmesh of an existing TRX filebake
: Bake an area (prototype, placeables and walkmesh cutters are not supported)
nwn-srv
- Interact with NWN2 server:
- Measure latency (ping)
- Query server info and status
nwn-bdb
- View/search Bioware/foxpro database content (dbf + ctx + fpt) using regular expressions.

Tips & tricks
Generate git diff from GFF & TLK files
- Configure Git to use the tools
- Using git command line:
git config --global diff.gff.textconv "$PATH_TO_NWNLIBD_TOOLS/nwn-gff -i \$1"
git config --global diff.tlk.textconv "$PATH_TO_NWNLIBD_TOOLS/nwn-tlk -i \$1"
- Or by editing .gitconfig:
[diff "gff"]
textconv = 'C:\\Program Files\\nwn-lib-d\\nwn-gff' -i $1
[diff "tlk"]
textconv = 'C:\\Program Files\\nwn-lib-d\\nwn-tlk' -i $1
- Configure your git repository to use GFF / TLK diff by creating
.gitattributes
file:
