YetAnotherAdtConverter

Convert .adt files from 335a (for example from Noggit) up to Legion

Requirements:

.NET 6

Usage:

Put the .adt files into the "Input" folder. If the Input folder does not exist, it will be created at first execution.
Run the YetAnotherAdtConverter.exe.
Wait for the "done..." message. The window closes automatically.
Get the finished .adt from the "Output" folder. If it does not exist, it will be created.

Configs:

The "config.ini" can be used to set the following settings:

Config	Default	Description
LogFile	False	Should the console output be saved to a file? (log.txt)
Input	.\Input	Directory in which the 335a files are read.
Output	.\Output	Directory where the files are written.
CreateMFBO	True	Should a MFBO chunk be created if the input has none? (This is not really necessary, but better include more details than too few, huh?)
BoundingSize	100	Used to see objects from a defined distance based on the radius. The larger the value, the further objects (.wmo / .m2) can be seen. If there are too many objects, performance may be impaired.
BoundingRadius	200	-//-
DynamicBoundingGeneration	True	Automatically adjusts the BoundingSize and BoundingRadius based on the specified values to the number of objects in the .adt. This should increase the performance of the game. [ boundingSize = specifiedValue - ((NumberOfObjects - 1000) / 10) ]
GroundEffectsAdding	False	Takes the information for the textures on which to add Groundeffects from GroundEffects.ini (if the file does not exist, it will be created instead) and adds it. The original .adt will not be changed. For more see "Ground effects"...
ReCalculateGroundEffectsMap	False	Fixes bugs with Groundeffects on some old maps (Noggit). ((Original by Mjollna.))

Ground effects:

If GroundEffects.ini does not exist, it will be created the first time the converter is started. (If the config "GroundEffectsAdding" is set to "True"!)

To add ground effects, the entries in GroundEffects.ini must have the following formatting:

TexturePath=ID

Example:

tileset/tanaris/tanarissandbase02.blp=99999  
tileset\expansion02\boreantundra\bt_mossyd.blp=666666

The TexturePath corresponds to Noggit or Casc etc.

The ID must be taken from the GroundEffectTexture.db2. All entries are separated by a line break. (No commas, semicolons or other crazy stuff you would expect now!)
