PsBuild

PsBuild

PsBuild is a tool to compile PSB description jsons to PSB.

pcc

PsBuild is pcc compatible. PsBuild accepts both res.json(psbtools decompiler) and resx.json(PsbDecompile) as resource json.

Resource Json

resx.json is a new format of resource json used by PsBuild. When decompiling PSB, some information is lost, and resx.json is used to keep them, and provide some options for compile at the same time. However, if you specify parameters in PsBuild, the corresponding setting in resx.json will be ignored.

For example, you can set CryptKey in resx.json, and the PSB will be encrypted after compiling. (This only works for EMT PSB.)

resx.json may changes with the updates of PsBuild. Be careful if you modified it and then switched to a new version of PsBuild.

Picture Resource

PsBuild identifies pictures' format by their file extensions and convert common picture formats to the format PSB used. For TLG image support, read Plugins for more details.

The compiled PSB does not work

1. Use /v{Version} to set a corresponding PSB version (usually try /v2 first). You can also set version in resx.json.
2. If the PSB have to be encrypted, do it using PsBuild /k{Key} or EmoteConv.
3. Make sure the jsons are valid (both syntax and content).
4. If you are using FreeMote libs, make sure you have called PSB.Merge() before PSB.Build().
