opc-tool

The new opc-tool

The purpose of this tool is to generate KdTrees for OPC hierarchies. Either run the tool directly from source or use a prebuilt version which is hosted on nuget and available as a dotnet tool.

Like any other dotnet tool it can be installed:

> dotnet tool install opc-tool --global
Sie können das Tool über den folgenden Befehl aufrufen: opc-tool
Das Tool "opc-tool" (Version 4.20.0-prerelease1) wurde erfolgreich installiert.

  --verbose                Prints all messages to standard output.

  --forcekdtreerebuild     Forces rebuild and overwrites existing kd-trees

  --ignoremasterkdtree     Ignores master kd-trees and load or creates per-patch kd-trees as well as the lazy
                           kd-tree cache

  --generatedds            Generate DDS

  --skippatchvalidation    Skip patch validation (textures, aara files)

  --overwritedds           Overwrite DDS

  --help                   Display this help screen.

  --version                Display version information.

  value pos. 0             Surface Directory

For example: opc-tool --forcekdtreerebuild "F:\pro3d\data\dimorphos"

The --forcekdtreerebuild option forces a rebuild of the KdTrees and overwrites existing files.

The content of the given surface folder could look like:

09.08.2023  08:45               312 Dimorphos.opcx
09.08.2023  08:45               397 Dimorphos.opcx.json
09.08.2023  10:13    <DIR>          Dimorphos_000_000

Where Dimorphos_000_000 is an OPC hierarchy containing the Images and Patches subfolder.

Caveats

Currently the tool cannot create uncompressed DDS files. The files are stored with DXT1 compression.
