File reader & world viewer released

We are proud to announce that after a longer hiatus, we have resumed reverse engineering the game. Over the past few weeks, we have made major breakthroughs on various file formats and updated our codebase.

While we figure out the remaining mysteries, specifically Morpheme/FaceFX animations and cloth simulation, the database will mostly remain in mainte­nance mode. However, we have added target overrides to the ability pages so you can see the radius of an AoE ability and how many targets it affects.

In addition, because of popular demand, we are releasing our two main tools to the public:

• The file reader allows you to open any file in the game, including 3D models, audio files and the Game Object Model (GOM).
• The world viewer lets you explore the locations from the game. We recommend only selecting smaller areas as the larger planets may crash your browser.

Both tools are webpages, which means they require no download or installation. Instead, you open the page and select the Assets folder from your game's installation. Keep in mind that the tools were designed for desktop use only and require the non-streaming launcher.

These tools are provided "as is", without warranty of any kind. Unfortuna­tely, we do not have time to offer support or respond to feature requests. Features are added as needed for internal use and functionality can change without advance notice. Still, we hope that the tools will prove useful, and look forward to sharing our progress over the coming months.
