=== Install ===
To install conversion tools binaries simply extract the ZIP package into a folder somewhere on the PC where it can be found and '''read-write access is granted'''.
= Usage =
# '''''Use binaries directly (for advanced users)'''''
#: Direct usage of conversion tools is done from command line with execution of "conversion_tools/convert.cmd" script. Running this script will take any mid-format resources founded in "conversion_tools/base" folder, correctly convert them into binary format files and place them into "conversion_tools/rsrc" folder.
#: After completed conversion all the content will be in inside "conversion_tools/rsrc/base/@cache". To create a mod you can ZIP "conversion_tools/rsrc/base/@cache" folder and place into the mod folder of the game as usual. In case of "conversion_tools/extra_mount.txt" usage each entry from extra mount will have it's its own converted folder entry inside "conversion_tools/rsrc" So to pack a mod you will have to take the result from each respective converted folder and put it together in the same ZIP file (e.g. extra mount entry "my_mod" will have conversion result in "conversion_tools/rsrc/my_mod/@cache".
<blockquote>{{Note|Usage of &quot;conversion_tools/extra_mount.txt&quot; file with specified additional sibling folder paths of &quot;base&quot; in each line of the file may also be used. This will cause conversion tools to mount all of the paths the same as &quot;conversion_tools/base&quot; folder. }}</blockquote>
<blockquote>{{Note|If something goes wrong during the conversion, you can find additional information in the conversion tools log file (&quot;bin/win_x86/mass_convert.log&quot;).}}</blockquote>
