PSO Ep 1 & 2 (Gamecube) .qst Header Generator Tool

This is a simple tool that can generate quest .qst file headers for a given set of .bin and .dat files. This tool was written to complement Sylverant's qst_tool which has primitive support for automatically generating a .qst file header if one is not provided.

This tool is NOT required if you are using the "bindat_to_gcdl" tool also included in this repository. That tool automatically generates the necessary header information in an identical manner to how this tool does.

Usage

Given two quest .bin and .dat files ...

gen_qst_header quest.bin quest.dat

Will result in the .bin file's header information being saved to a file called quest.bin.hdr and the .dat file's header information being saved to a file called quest.dat.hdr.

This can then be used with "qst_tool" to generate a .qst file if you wish:

qst_tool -m gc quest.bin quest.dat quest.bin.hdr quest.dat.hdr
