Usage

./gsc-tool.exe <mode> <game> <system> <path>

mode: asm, disasm, comp, decomp, parse

  • note: zonetool files (.cgsc, .cgsc.stack) use: zasm, zdisasm, zcomp, zdecomp modes

game: iw5, iw6, iw7, iw8, iw9, s1, s2, s4, h1, h2, t6 t7 t8 t9

system: pc, ps3, ps4, ps5, xb2 (360), xb3 (One), xb4 (Series X|S), wiiu

path: file or directory (recursive process all files inside the directory)

Example: ./gsc-tool.exe comp iw5 pc ./data/iw5/my_fancy_script.gsc

Mode Description Output
asm assemble a file.gscasm file.gscbin
disasm dissasemble a file.gscbin file.gscasm
comp compile a file.gsc file.gscbin
decomp decompile a file.gscbin file.gsc
parse parse a file.gsc file.gsc

File Format

If you need to extract scripts from fastfiles or game memory, use Zonetool or Jekyll.

  • gsc-tool .gscbin format is a serialized ScriptFile struct:
    name: null-terminated string
    compressedLen: 4 byte uint
    len: 4 byte uint
    bytecodeLen: 4 byte uint
    buffer: byte array[compressedLen]
    bytecode: byte array[bytecodeLen]

note: for PS3 & Xbox 360 .gscbin files (compressedLen, len, bytecodeLen) are saved as little-endian!!

  • zonetool (IW5) format made of bytecode file .cgsc and decompressed stack buffer .cgsc.stack.

  • treyarch (T6) format is a single buffer with gscobj data .gsc or .csc.
