texture-courier 0.0.4

rips texture cache from second life viewers

texture-courier

program that rips texture cache from second life viewers

goals

• work on all platforms (that support pip)
• be as fast as possible
• no dependencies

non goals

texture-courier should not transform or present the cache in any way. we output things as they are. that means no gui, and no bells and whistles.

install & use

install texture-courier from pip

pip install texture-courier

locate your texture cache, and provide it like this

texture-courier /Users/meri/Library/Caches/Firestorm_x64/texturecache

this dumps the contents of the cache folder to the provided folder (default ./texturecache).

these files will be in j2c, a jpeg2000 derivative. many programs and operating systems do not read this natively, and may need conversion. you may want to use a utility to convert these. graphicsmagick is a good place to start.

if you want to convert everything in a directory, this command should do the job:

for i in [ *.j2c ]; gm convert "$i" (basename "$i" ".j2c").png; end

use texture-courier -h for other options.
