A set of CLI tools for Breath of the Wild modding

• yaz0: De/compress a file with Yaz-0
• aamp: Convert between AAMP and YML
• byml: Convert between BYML and YML
• sarc: Manipulate SARC archives
• actorinfo: Manipulate ActorInfo file

All commands can read from stdin and write to stdout, either automatically or by explicitly using the pipe (-) character instead of file path.

To see how to use these commands, please refer either to command --help (ex. aamp --help), or the examples below.

Examples:

AAMP:

# View a AAMP file
aamp DgnObj_EntranceElevatorSP.bphysics

# Save as YML
aamp DgnObj_EntranceElevatorSP.bphysics \!!  # Saves as 'DgnObj_EntranceElevatorSP.physics.yml'
# or
aamp DgnObj_EntranceElevatorSP.bphysics test.yml

Yaz0 and BYML:

# View a BYML file

# First variant
yaz0 ActorInfo.product.sbyml | byml

# Second variant
yaz0 ActorInfo.product.sbyml ActorInfo.product.byml
byml ActorInfo.product.byml


# Save as YML

# First variant
yaz0 ActorInfo.product.sbyml | byml - ActorInfo.product.yml

# Second variant
