PNG (BLP sidecar) and JSON DBC (DBC sidecar) didn't have inspectors —
the existing --info-* suite only covered the binary native formats
(WOM/WOB/WOC/WOT/WHM/WCP). These fill the gap so debugging the
asset_extract --emit-* output doesn't need GIMP / a JSON pretty-printer:
wowee_editor --info-png Textures/Sky01.png
PNG: Textures/Sky01.png
size : 256 x 256
bit depth : 8
color : rgba (4 channels)
file bytes: 142336
wowee_editor --info-jsondbc db/Spell.json
JSON DBC: db/Spell.json
format : wowee-jsondbc-1
source : Spell.dbc
records : 47882 (header) / 47882 (actual)
fields : 234
PNG inspector reads only the IHDR chunk (24 bytes total) — no pixel
decode — so it works instantly on huge files. Validates the
8-byte signature, parses big-endian width/height, derives channel
count from PNG color type (grayscale/rgb/palette/grayscale+alpha/
rgba per spec table 11.1).
JSON DBC inspector parses with nlohmann::json, reports the schema
fields (format/source/recordCount/fieldCount), and cross-checks
recordCount against actual records[] array length. Exits 1 on
count mismatch — catches truncated extracts where the header lies
about how much data follows. Verified with hand-rolled 2x3 RGBA
PNG (correct dims) and JSON DBC files (one matched, one mismatched
99 vs 1).
WOM (the open M2 replacement) already round-trips through OBJ; this
extends the universal-format bridge to WOB (the open WMO replacement)
so buildings can also be edited in Blender / MeshLab / Maya / etc.
wowee_editor --export-wob-obj House # writes House.obj
wowee_editor --export-wob-obj House out.obj # custom path
Mapping decisions:
- Each WOB group becomes one OBJ 'g' block (named after the group;
outdoor groups get an '_outdoor' suffix). Preserves the room/floor
structure for downstream selection and per-area editing.
- Single global vertex pool with per-group offsets (OBJ requires v
indices to be globally 1-based; we track a running vertOffset).
- UV V flipped (1.0 - v) so texturing matches Blender bottom-left
convention, same as --export-obj for WOM.
- Doodad placements written as # comment lines at the end. OBJ has
no native concept for instanced models, but emitting them as
structured comments keeps the placement data recoverable for
tools that want to re-instance them.
- Portals and material flags drop on the floor — OBJ has no
semantics for either. The native WOB always remains canonical.
Verified on a synthesized 2-group house (4-vert floor + 3-vert wall,
1 doodad): output OBJ has 7 verts / 7 vt / 7 vn entries, 2 'g'
blocks with proper index offsetting, doodad comment line preserved.
--add-quest creates a quest shell but quests with no objectives never
complete in-game. This fills the gap:
wowee_editor --add-quest-objective <zoneDir> <questIdx> \
<kill|collect|talk|explore|escort|use> <targetName> [count]
Workflow:
Z=custom_zones/MyZone
wowee_editor --add-quest $Z 'Hunt Wolves' 100 100 250 5
wowee_editor --add-quest-objective $Z 0 kill 'Wolf' 5
wowee_editor --add-quest-objective $Z 0 collect 'Wolf Pelt' 3
Auto-generates a description from type+count+name so addons and
tooltips show something sensible ('Slay 5 Wolf', 'Collect 3 Wolf
Pelt', 'Talk to Mayor'). Designers can hand-edit quests.json after
the fact for bespoke prose; the auto-text is the floor, not the
ceiling.
Quest index matches --list-quests output (0-based). Out-of-range
index, unknown type, or missing quests.json all error with clear
messages and exit 1.
Verified: scaffolded zone, added 2 quests + 3 objectives across
them; --info-quests reports '1 kill, 1 collect, 1 talk'. Bad type
and bad index both rejected.
The natural counterpart to --diff-wcp (which compares two .wcp
archives) — operates on the unpacked side of the workflow. Shows
exactly what changed across zone.json fields, creature roster,
object placements, and quest list:
wowee_editor --diff-zone custom_zones/Base custom_zones/Variant
Diff: custom_zones/Base vs custom_zones/Variant
manifest : 2 field diff(s)
~ mapName: 'Base' -> 'Variant'
~ displayName: 'Base' -> 'Variant'
creatures : 2 vs 2
- Bear
+ Tiger
quests : 1 vs 2
+ Defeat the Tiger
Pairs naturally with --copy-zone: template a base zone, fork a
variant, then diff to see exactly what was customized. Useful for
PR review when a designer modifies a zone — diff against the
upstream version to scope the change.
Comparison strategy: sorted set diff on stable identifying fields
(creature.name, object.path, quest.title). This intentionally hides
position/orientation changes since those are continuous and would
flag every pixel-perfect tweak as a diff — content-level changes
are the signal here.
Exit 0 if identical, 1 otherwise (so CI can gate). JSON mode emits
per-category onlyA/onlyB arrays + manifestDiffs list + totalDiffs
count for programmatic consumption.
Verified: diffed two zones forked from a common base (one with
creature swap + new quest); reported 5 diffs across manifest +
creatures + quests with exit 1. Same zone vs itself reports
IDENTICAL with exit 0.
Closes the open-format authoring loop:
asset_extract # M2 -> WOM (open binary)
--export-obj # WOM -> OBJ (universal text)
... edit in Blender / MeshLab / ZBrush / Maya ...
--import-obj # OBJ -> WOM (back to engine format)
The same WOM file ships in custom zones, gets validated by
--validate-wom, and renders identically through the existing pipeline
— no proprietary M2 ever needs to touch the authoring path.
Parser handles:
- v / vt / vn pools, deduped on (pos, uv, normal) triples so the
resulting WOM vertex buffer stays compact
- 1-based AND negative (relative) face indices
- f tokens in v, v/t, v//n, and v/t/n forms
- Triangles, quads, and convex n-gons (fan-triangulated)
- CRLF line endings
- Reverses --export-obj's V flip (1.0 - v) so UVs round-trip exactly
- Auto-computes boundMin/Max/Radius from positions (renderer culls
by these — wrong values make the model disappear)
- Output WOM is WOM1 (static); bones/anims/material flags don't
exist in OBJ and stay empty by design
Verified end-to-end: WOM -> OBJ -> WOM -> validate-wom yields a
5-vert, 6-tri pyramid back identical to the input. Bounds, vertex
count, index count, and name all preserved.
WOM is our open M2 replacement, but it's still a custom binary format
no DCC tool understands out of the box. OBJ is the universally
supported text format that opens directly in Blender, MeshLab,
ZBrush, Maya — basically every 3D tool ever made:
wowee_editor --export-obj Tree # writes Tree.obj
wowee_editor --export-obj Tree out.obj # custom output path
This closes the loop for content authors:
asset_extract -> WOM (open binary) -> OBJ (universal text) ->
edit in Blender -> back to WOM via a future --import-obj.
Layout details that matter for downstream tools:
- 1-based face indices (OBJ standard)
- UV V flipped (1.0 - v) so texturing matches between Vulkan
top-left and Blender bottom-left conventions
- Per-batch groups when WOM3 batches exist, named with the
texture basename so material assignment carries through
- Single 'mesh' group for WOM1/WOM2 models
- Header comment preserves provenance (source, version, counts)
Verified on a synthesized 5-vert pyramid (4 base + apex, 6 tris):
output OBJ has 5 v / 5 vt / 5 vn entries, 6 f lines, opens cleanly
in MeshLab. Build green, ctest 31/31.
Verbose enumeration of every entry, complementing the existing
--info-* (summary counts) and unblocking --remove-* (which takes a
0-based index).
wowee_editor --list-creatures custom_zones/Z/creatures.json
creatures.json: custom_zones/Z/creatures.json (2 total)
idx name lvl display pos (x, y, z)
0 Wolf 7 11430 (100.0, 200.0, 50.0)
1 Black Bear 12 11445 (110.0, 210.0, 55.0)
The 'idx' column is exactly what --remove-creature/object/quest
takes, closing the workflow loop:
wowee_editor --list-creatures $Z/creatures.json |
grep -i 'wolf' | awk '{print $1}' |
xargs -I{} wowee_editor --remove-creature $Z {}
Each command has matching --json mode that emits per-entry records
with index, key fields, and position. Verified on a synthesized
zone with 2 creatures + 2 objects + 2 quests; tables align, indices
match, JSON is well-formed and round-trips through jq cleanly.
Symmetric counterparts to --add-{creature,object,quest} from earlier
batches:
wowee_editor --remove-creature <zoneDir> <index>
wowee_editor --remove-object <zoneDir> <index>
wowee_editor --remove-quest <zoneDir> <index>
Index is 0-based and is reported in the corresponding --info-* output;
nothing identifies entries reliably across reloads, so name-based
removal would silently delete the wrong row when duplicates exist.
Pair them in scripts:
idx=$(wowee_editor --info-creatures $Z/creatures.json --json |
jq '.spawns | map(.name) | index("Wolf")')
wowee_editor --remove-creature $Z $idx
Each prints the removed entry's name/path and the new total so
scripts can verify the right row went away. Out-of-range indices
exit 1 with a clear message.
Verified end-to-end: scaffolded zone, added 3 creatures + 2 objects
+ 2 quests, removed one of each by index, totals correctly went
3->2/2->1/2->1. Bad index 99 properly errors out.
--info-extract reports sidecar coverage % per format, but doesn't say
which files are missing. This makes it actionable:
wowee_editor --list-missing-sidecars Data/
Output: one path per line, prefixed with the missing extension so
shell tools can filter:
png Data/Textures/Skybox/Sky01.blp
json Data/DBFilesClient/SoundEntries.dbc
wom Data/Character/Human/Male/HumanMale.m2
Pipe into xargs to drive a targeted re-extract:
wowee_editor --list-missing-sidecars Data/ |
awk '/^png/ {print $2}' |
xargs asset_extract --emit-png-only
Skips WMO group files (Foo_NNN.wmo) since only the parent file gets
a .wob sidecar — they would otherwise inflate the missing list with
hundreds of false positives per WMO.
Exit 1 when anything is missing (so CI can gate). JSON mode emits
arrays per format type for programmatic consumption. Verified
against synthetic dir with 5 files (4 lacking sidecars + 1 with
.png present): all 4 reported, the one with sidecar correctly
omitted.
Round out the per-format validator suite. Open-format zone validation
now covers all four binary formats:
--validate-wom Tree
--validate-wob House
--validate-woc terrain.woc
--validate-whm Zone_28_30
--validate-all custom_zones/Zone1 # runs everything
WOC checks: finite vertex coords on every triangle, no degenerate
triangles (two verts identical), known flag bits only (0x0F mask),
tile coords within WoW grid (< 64), bounds.min <= bounds.max.
WHM/WOT checks: finite heights across all 145 verts/chunk, finite
chunk position vectors, tile coord in [0, 64), reasonable height
envelope ([-10000, 10000] is a generous outer bound — beyond that
suggests units confusion), placements have finite positions and
nameId within doodadNames/wmoNames table size.
validate-all now reports all four format counts (WOM/WOB/WOC/WHM)
and aggregates errors. Verified end-to-end: a fresh scaffolded zone
with --build-woc yields 256/256 chunks loaded, 32768 walkable
triangles, validate-all PASSED. Synthesized WOC with 0xFF flags
correctly fails with 'unknown flag bits 0xFF' and exit 1.
Walks a directory recursively and runs the deep validators on every
.wom and .wob it finds. Single CI gate for an entire zone tree:
wowee_editor --validate-all custom_zones/MyZone --json
Reports per-file failures (capped at first 20 to keep output bounded)
plus aggregate counts so you know which file to drill into with
--validate-wom or --validate-wob individually.
Refactor: pulled the validation bodies out of --validate-wom and
--validate-wob into static helpers (validateWomErrors / validateWobErrors)
returning vector<string>. The per-file commands now share the same
logic as --validate-all — fix one, fix all three. ~200 lines of
duplicate validation code consolidated.
Verified end-to-end: seeded /tmp dir with 2 WOMs (1 with DAG bone
violation) + 1 valid WOB, --validate-all reports 'WOM: 2 total, 1
failed' / 'WOB: 1 total, 0 failed' with the bad file's full path and
error printed below. JSON mode emits per-file failure list for CI.
Companion to --validate-wom; same load-is-lenient story for buildings:
wowee_editor --validate-wob House [--json]
Cross-references checked per group:
- indices.size() divisible by 3
- every index < vertices.size()
- material textures non-empty
- group boundMin <= boundMax per axis
Building-level:
- portal groupA/groupB references real groups (or -1 = exterior)
- portal polygon has >= 3 vertices
- doodad modelPath non-empty
- doodad scale finite and > 0
- boundRadius >= 0
Errors batched (caps to 3 listed plus '... and N more') so a thousand
bad indices in one group don't drown the report. JSON mode emits the
same error list for CI consumption. Exit 1 on any failure so shell
scripts can gate on it.
Verified against a synthesized 2-group building with intentional
flaws across every category — caught all 4 (group indices count,
empty material texture, short portal polygon, empty doodad model)
and exited 1.
The WOM loader is intentionally lenient — it clamps out-of-range
indices to 0, resets bad bone parents to -1, and skips invalid
batches. That keeps broken files from crashing the renderer, but
also hides corruption that authoring scripts should catch BEFORE
the file ships.
wowee_editor --validate-wom Tree [--json]
Cross-references checked (none auto-fixed by load()):
- bone DAG order: parent must be strictly less than self index
- animation boneKeyframes count == bone count when both nonzero
- batch indexStart+Count <= total indexCount
- batch indexCount divisible by 3
- batch textureIndex < texturePaths size
- boundMin <= boundMax per axis, boundRadius >= 0
- header version in [1,3], indices count divisible by 3
Verified against a synthesized 3-bone model with parent=self+1
(invalid DAG order) — load() preserves it as written, validator
reports 'bone 1 parent=2 not strictly less (DAG order)' and
exits 1. JSON mode emits errorCount + errors[] + passed boolean
for CI scripts to gate on.
Duplicate an existing zone to a new slug:
wowee_editor --copy-zone custom_zones/Original "My New Zone"
Workflow this enables: scaffold one base zone, populate it with
creatures/objects/quests, then copy-zone N times to create variants
without re-scaffolding each. Designers can template a 'forest base'
zone and stamp it into Dark Forest, Frozen Forest, etc.
What it does:
- Recursive copy preserves any subdirs (e.g. data/ for DBC sidecars)
- Reads source slug from zone.json (not the dir name) to know what
prefix to rewrite — handles users who renamed dirs without
touching the manifest
- Renames slug-prefixed files (Original_28_30.whm -> NewSlug_28_30.whm,
matches both _-suffixed and .-suffixed forms)
- Saves a fresh zone.json via ZoneManifest::save which rebuilds the
files-block from mapName, so the manifest references the renamed
files correctly
Verified end-to-end: scaffolded Original, added creature + quest,
copied to 'My New Zone'. Result: 2 files renamed, zone.json
mapName/displayName/files all updated, creatures.json + quests.json
copied verbatim.
Third headless authoring command, finishing the trio:
wowee_editor --add-quest <zoneDir> <title> [giverId] [turnInId] [xp] [level]
Optional positional fields are read in order; omit from the right.
Bare 'wowee_editor --add-quest zone Title' produces a valid quest
with default values, matching the editor GUI's New Quest behavior.
Verified: appended 3 quests (250+100+0 XP) to a scaffolded zone,
--info-quests --json reports total=3, totalXp=450, withReward=3.
Mirrors --add-creature for the object placer:
wowee_editor --add-object <zoneDir> <m2|wmo> <gamePath> <x> <y> <z> [scale]
Lets shell scripts populate objects/buildings without the GUI:
for tree in 100,200 150,250 200,300; do
x=${tree%,*}; y=${tree#*,}
wowee_editor --add-object "$zone" m2 'World/Doodad/Tree.m2' $x $y 0
done
Loads existing objects.json first then appends, so multiple
invocations build up. Optional scale slot lets the caller set
non-default size (clamped to >0 by the load-time guard).
Verified end-to-end: scaffolded zone → added m2 + wmo → info-objects
reports total=2 with the correct scale range.
Appends a single creature spawn to a zone's creatures.json. First
real authoring tool that doesn't need the GUI placement system —
useful for batch-populating zones via shell script:
for npc in goblin spider wolf; do
wowee_editor --add-creature "$zone" "$npc" 100 200 50
done
Args: <zoneDir> <name> <x> <y> <z> [displayId] [level]
- displayId 0 → SQL exporter substitutes 11707 (generic humanoid)
- level defaults to 1
- Coordinates are render-space (renderX=wowY, renderY=wowX)
Loads any existing creatures.json first then appends, so multiple
invocations build up the file. The standard NPC spawner caps
(50k creatures) protect against runaway scripts.
Adds --json to --info-creatures, --info-objects, --info-quests so
the per-content inspectors match the per-zone aggregator. Schemas
match the existing --zone-summary --json sub-objects.
Now 9 inspectors support --json:
--info-extract --info-wcp --validate
--info-creatures --info-objects --info-quests
--zone-summary --list-zones --diff-wcp
CI can now drill into per-content reports the same way as the
top-level summary, e.g. fail a build if a zone's quests have any
chain errors:
wowee_editor --info-quests "$zone/quests.json" --json \
| jq -e '.chainErrors | length == 0'
Adds JSON mode to the zone discovery scanner. Returns an array of
zone objects, each with name/dir/mapId/author/description/tiles/
hasCreatures/hasQuests.
Lets CI scripts iterate every available zone and run a per-zone
gate, e.g.:
for zone in $(wowee_editor --list-zones --json | jq -r '.[].directory'); do
wowee_editor --validate "$zone" --json | jq -e '.score == 7'
done
Fifth and last commonly-used inspector to gain --json mode (after
--info-extract, --validate, --info-wcp, --zone-summary).
Adds --json output to the one-shot zone-summary aggregator. Refactor
also moves creature/object/quest data reads to a shared step before
either branch so both human and JSON outputs use the same numbers.
Schema:
{
"zone": "custom_zones/Foo",
"score": 3, "maxScore": 7,
"formats": "WOT WHM zone.json ",
"counts": { "wot":1, "whm":1, "wom":0, "wob":0, "woc":0, "png":0 },
"creatures": { "total":N, "hostile":N, "questgiver":N, "vendor":N },
"objects": { "total":N, "m2":N, "wmo":N },
"quests": { "total":N, "chainWarnings":N }
}
Now CI can gate on any combination — open-format coverage, NPC
counts, quest chain health — from a single command. Fourth and
last commonly-CI'd inspector to gain --json mode (after
--info-extract, --validate, --info-wcp).
Mirrors --info-extract --json and --validate --json. Schema:
{
"wcp": "/path/to/zone.wcp",
"name": "Wj",
"author": "...",
"description": "...",
"version": "1.0",
"format": "wcp-1.0",
"mapId": 9000,
"fileCount": 3,
"totalBytes": 177671,
"categories": { "terrain": 2, "data": 1 }
}
Lets CI scripts inspect packed zones — e.g. fail a release if a
zone's WCP doesn't include a creature category, or auto-tag a
release with the totalBytes field.
Adds an optional --json flag that emits a structured nlohmann JSON
object instead of the human-readable text. Schema:
{
"dir": "...",
"totalBytes": N, "proprietaryBytes": N, "openBytes": N,
"overallCoverage": 100.0,
"blp_png": { "proprietary": N, "sidecar": N, "coverage": % },
"dbc_json": { ... },
"m2_wom": { ... },
"wmo_wob": { ... },
"adt_whm": { ... }
}
Lets CI scripts gate on coverage:
cov=$(wowee_editor --info-extract Data --json | jq .overallCoverage)
if [ "$cov" != "100" ]; then asset_extract --upgrade-extract Data; fi
Adds two summary lines so users can see how big a 'purge proprietary
after open conversion' workflow would shrink their tree (or how
much extra a dual-format extraction costs):
proprietary bytes: 18432.4 MB
open-format bytes: 21340.7 MB (115.8% of proprietary)
Counts every BLP/DBC/M2/WMO/ADT into the proprietary bucket and
every PNG/JSON/WOM/WOB/WHM/WOT/WOC into the open bucket. The
ratio surfaces things like 'PNG is bigger than DXT-compressed BLP'
or 'JSON DBC is much smaller than the binary' without the user
having to run du themselves.
Walks an extracted asset tree and reports per-format counts plus
how many proprietary files have a wowee open-format sidecar.
Lets users (or CI) see at a glance whether asset_extract was run
with --emit-open and how complete the open-format coverage is:
BLP textures : 12340 (12340 PNG sidecar = 100.0% open)
DBC tables : 240 (240 JSON sidecar = 100.0% open)
M2 models : 8500 (0 WOM sidecar = 0.0% open)
...
overall open-format coverage: 41.2%
(run `asset_extract --emit-open` to fill missing sidecars)
Skips _NNN group sub-files when counting WMOs (only the root WMO
ships with a WOB sidecar). The headless CLI is now at 22 commands.
Loads + immediately re-saves zone.json, creatures.json,
objects.json, and quests.json. The load-time scrubs (NaN,
out-of-range, oversize) and save-time caps fire on the round-trip,
producing a cleaned-up zone without ever opening the GUI.
Useful when an old zone was created before recent hardening
batches — running this once normalizes the on-disk state to match
what the current loaders expect.
Mirrors the other --info-* family inspectors. Accepts either a
zone directory or the zone.json path directly. Prints every
manifest field: name, mapId, biome, baseHeight, tiles, flags,
audio config. Useful when diffing two zones or auditing the
audio/flag setup before packing.
Walks a zone directory recursively, finds every WHM file, and
rebuilds the matching WOC. Useful after batch terrain edits when
you want to refresh collision for many tiles in one shot. Reports
per-tile triangle counts and exits 1 if any rebuild failed.
Combines validate + creature/object/quest counts in a single
output. Useful for CI reports and quick sanity checks. Exits 0
if open-format score is 7/7 (full coverage), 1 otherwise.
Compares two WCP archives file-by-file from their info JSON: lists
added (+), removed (-), and size-changed (~) entries. Useful for
verifying that an authoring tweak changed only what it claimed to
change, and for editor-version regression detection. Exit code 0
if identical, 1 otherwise.
Renders heightmap, normal-map, and zone-map PNGs alongside a
WHM/WOT terrain pair. Useful for portfolio screenshots, ground-
truth map comparison, and quick visual validation without
launching the GUI.
Loads a WHM/WOT terrain pair and writes a .woc collision mesh
alongside it. Terrain triangles only (no WMO overlays — those need
the asset manager) but enough for first-pass walkability while
authoring.
Verified end-to-end: scaffold-zone → build-woc → info-woc reports
32k triangles for a flat 256-chunk tile.
Mirrors --unpack-wcp. Accepts either a zone name (auto-resolved
under custom_zones/ then output/) or a directory path. Default
output is <name>.wcp in the current directory. Combined with
--scaffold-zone and --unpack-wcp, the editor can do the full
zone authoring round-trip from the command line.
Mirrors --info-wcp / --list-wcp. Default destination is
custom_zones/ (matches the GUI's preferred location). With both
this and --scaffold-zone, the editor binary can fully bootstrap
a zone install without launching the GUI.
Creates custom_zones/<slug>/ with a flat-terrain WHM, default WOT,
and minimal zone.json — score 3/7 on --validate, ready to open in
the GUI for further authoring. Saves the round-trip of launching
the GUI just to make a starter directory.
Previously '--info-wcp' (no path) silently dropped into the GUI
because the option-parse loop's i+1<argc guard hid the typo. Pre-
scan and bail out with a helpful message before trying to start
the editor, so users get fast feedback on bad invocations.
--info-wcp gives counts and totals; --list-wcp gives the full file
listing sorted by path. Useful for spotting missing texture/model
entries before unpacking and shipping a zone.
Completes the --info-* family. Reports total/chained quest counts,
reward/item counts, total XP awarded, objective-type breakdown
(kill/collect/talk), and any quest-chain validation errors. Lets
zone authors spot broken chains, missing rewards, and lopsided XP
balance from the command line.
Mirrors --info-creatures and the other format inspectors. Reports
total placement count, M2/WMO breakdown, unique source paths, and
scale range. Useful for spotting empty zones, accidental scale
extremes, or duplicated placements before packing.
Mirrors the existing --info-wom/wob/woc/wot/wcp inspectors. Reports
total spawn count, hostile/questgiver/vendor/trainer flag counts,
behavior breakdown (stationary/wander/patrol), and unique displayId
count. Useful for triaging zone NPC content from the command line.
The previous --validate output told you whether *some* file of each
type existed, which was hard to act on for partially-valid zones.
Now reports the per-format file count and how many failed magic
validation, e.g. 'WOM (12 invalid: 2)' so a zone author can spot
missing or corrupted models without grepping through file listings.
Mirrors the existing --info-wom/--info-wob/--info-woc/--info-wcp
inspectors. Reports the tile coord, populated chunks, layer count,
water count, texture/doodad/WMO counts, and computed height range
across all chunks. Useful for triaging zones from the command line
without opening the GUI.
Reports name/author/description/version/format/mapId, total file count,
per-category breakdown (terrain/model/building/texture/data), and total
on-disk bytes. Useful for inspecting third-party WCPs before importing
or for sanity-checking your own exports.
Companion to --info for WOM. Reports name, group/portal/doodad counts,
total vertex/triangle/material counts. Useful for verifying converted
WMOs and debugging building rendering issues without launching the GUI.
Useful for verifying WOM exports and debugging conversion issues without
loading the GUI. Accepts either /path/to/file.wom or /path/to/file
(loader expects no extension). Reports version, name, geometry counts,
texture/bone/animation/batch counts, and bound radius.
New CLI option that runs ContentPacker::validateZone on a zone directory
and prints the open-format score (0-7) with per-file breakdown including
magic-byte validity. Exits 0 if 7/7, 1 otherwise — useful for CI checks
on exported zones.
