TML.Patcher - Unpack and Decompile .tmod files (Patching Soon:TM:)
Not sure if this is a valid place to post this but I may as well, since it's a tool that can be useful for directly modifying .tmod files.
TML.Patcher
[IMG]https://avatars.******userconten*****m/u/82782820[/IMG]
Latest version: v0.1.3.0, released 4/28/21
This is a tool for decompiling and unpacking .tmod files, which are the files used to load tModLoader mods. .tmod files themselves are glorified .zip files, stashing two assemblies (one for XNA and another for FNA), along with compressing and packaging assets and other non-code files inside of it. This tool converts .rawimg files to .pngs, unpacks .tmod files into an \Extracted\ folder, and can use ilspycmd to directly decompile extracted mods into a \Decompiled\ folder.
You can drag-and-drop .tmod files onto the exe to quickly unpack them without having to use the terminal UI. You must launch this program and get to the actual menu screen with options before doing this though. Source code is available on ******, though I'm unsure of whether or not I'm allowed to link that.
Installation
Prerequisites:
* Have .NET 5 installed.
* Have ilspycmd installed (you can install this through the program, if you want).
Installation:
1. Grab the newest release from the Releases page.
2. Extract it into an empty folder.
3. Run "TML.Patcher.Frontend.exe".
4. (ONLY IF PROMPTED) Enter in your \Mods\ folder directory. (This should be automatically detected by the program under most circumstances!)
Troubleshooting
While this program is pretty basic in its operations, it does read and write files, including writing over files and deleting directories in the extraction and decompilation directories. While there is nothing malicious, some anti-virus programs will detect this as suspicious due to this software not being wide-spread, and may prevent you from opening the program or may stop the program from modifying files. If you are on Windows, you may be prompted with the option to add TML.Patcher to your files context menu. This requires administrator permissions to do. If you don't want to grant the program administrator permissions to modify your registry, then just enter 'n'.
