ROM Hack RELEASE BNTX Editor - A tool for editing textures

[AboodXD]

Download (v0.3).
Source Code (GitHub).

PLEASE NOTE THAT SAVING THE BNTX IN THIS TOOL WILL LEAD TO FILE SIZE CHANGES!!
Alternatively, I made a tool that will not change the file size of the BNTX whatsoever called "BNTX Injector", though it has some restrictions:

Thanks for this mate. This will definitely help out the LayeredFS BOTW modding side of things. I appreciate your time and effort in making this program. Cheers!

Was trying to edit Links texture before I start working on bigger stuff, problem is he's now all red except for his face which is gray. What did I do wrong?

Just released version 0.2.

Changelog:
* Fixed a bug where the root entry of the dictionary wouldn't be written correctly, leading to the BNTX not loading ingame.

Download.

@RetroGamer732 This might fix the issue you are facing.

What program would you recommend using to get a texture into BC5 compression? I ask as I've been using The Compressonator, but when I go to import the texture, BNTX Editor tells me "Unsupported DDS File"

Something like GIMP should work. Luckily, you can avoid using BC5 and use BC3 (DXT5) with Channel 3 set to "Zero" and Channel 4 set to "One".

Anyway, to fix Compressonator BC1/2/3/4/5 DDS files, change byte 0x50 from 5 to 4.
I have no idea why it sets it to 5 instead of 4...

Since this tool causes the BNTX file size to change when saving, I made a tool for injecting textures called "BNTX Injector", which should not change the file size of the BNTX.
Link has been added to the first post.

Okay, I know I could use DXT5 for BC3 instead, but my issue is that normal maps aren’t showing in game, and I thought that may have been the issue.

So looking a little more into it, the Normal map shows up in Killz's BFRES Forge, but not in BOTW. Now I've confused myself.

Could you look for nxtex in La Noire (Switch Version)? Thanks!

Seems to be compressed, you have to decompress it in order to be able to open the BNTX file in the editor.

 

[AlanLC]

Tks! Any idea what compression is used? I tried zlib but it did not work
