Latest release.
This is a tool to convert the .BIN files used by the game to store various graphical elements. The tool will convert these files to the BMP and PNG formats, usable by any image editor, and then convert BMP and PNG images back to the BIN collection format for use by the game.
The tool can either convert whole BIN files, or extract and import back individual elements (for example individual units from EFSUNIT.BIN) to make working with large collections easier.
Most all BIN files are supported. This includes the collections storing unit icons, terrain and structure tiles, portraits, banners, small UI elements and galaxy map planet animation frames.
I'd recommend joining the Discord server for any questions that isn't answered by the lackluster readme :]
You can find the github here.
If you run into any problem or have suggestions, you can create an Issue on the github, or contact me on the Emperor of the Fading Suns Discord.
