This is an independently written project introduction, not a reproduction or translation of the README. Documentation permission is unconfirmed or limited in scope. Read the linked repository for the full instructions. Feature and progress claims come from the source documentation and have not been independently playtested here.

This is a C#-based utility aimed at Chrome Engine resource packaging, primarily covering the Dying Light series and several titles built on the same engine. Its main job is to read .rpack archives and export contents by type, letting researchers inspect the original structure of game assets. The project ships both a command-line interface and a graphical front end, organised through a solution file with multiple subprojects.

According to the README, support spans several games, though the degree of support varies. Textures are exported directly as .DDS, with an option to convert .png.dds back to .PNG; animations are exported as raw .ANM2 data; and mesh conversion to the Chrome Engine editor format is explicitly labelled experimental. Unrecognised formats are dumped as raw binaries, a conservative approach that avoids data loss but does not guarantee directly usable output.

Runtime fixups are controlled through options.ini, such as enabling the PNG fixup or switching to full raw dumping. The README does not document complete compatibility across game versions, nor does it provide test results or a verified list, so the practical scope remains for users to confirm. Overall it reads as a research and reverse-engineering aid rather than a complete asset editing or repacking solution.
