aamp is an AAMP tool. It can convert documents from AAMP to a human readable format (YAML) and vice versa. It is a newer tool that was written based on analysis of the official AAMP code in the executable.
Setup
Install the aamp package. [CLI help]
Usage
aamp is a CLI tool. For help with using the command line, see Help:Using the command line.
Convert from AAMP to text and vice versa with the aamp command:
aamp {input file} {output file}
Example
To convert a binary GeneralParamList (bgparamlist) file to a text file:
aamp Actor/GeneralParamList/WildHorseCreateTag02.bgparamlist Actor/GeneralParamList/WildHorseCreateTag02.bgparamlist.yml
The text file will be written to Actor/GeneralParamList/WildHorseCreateTag02.bgparamlist.yml. Of course, you can use whatever file name you want.
To convert a text GeneralParamList back to an AAMP file, assuming you put the text file at Actor/GeneralParamList/WildHorseCreateTag02.bgparamlist.yml:
aamp Actor/GeneralParamList/WildHorseCreateTag02.bgparamlist.yml Actor/GeneralParamList/WildHorseCreateTag02.bgparamlist
Known issues
- Incomplete parameter type support: Esoteric parameter types (buffers) are not fully supported: currently the tool can display files that use buffers correctly but cannot convert them back to AAMP.
