This library comes with these commands:

• hk_to_json: Havok packfile -> JSON
• json_to_hk: JSON -> Havok packfile
• hk_compare: Compare two or more packfiles
• hkrb_extract: Extract shapes from Static Compound files by HashId
• hksc_to_hkrb: Convert all Static Compound shapes into a single HKRB

---

• At the moment, only Havok Physics files (*.hksc, *.hkrb, *.hktmrb) can be read.

• Most of the smaller ones deserialize and serialize flawlessly and the resulting packfiles are nearly identical to the originals.

• The larger files (particularly StaticCompound ones) are usually smaller than the originals after serialization. That's caused by the originals having duplicate Havok objects that are removed and referenced instead.
