This is a little editor for data tables in Bravely Default and Bravely Second. It unpacks the crowd files, organizes data into speadsheets whenever possible, and packs edited files and spreadsheets into a mod.
This tool is only compatible with an extracted RomFS. You'll need to do this first with other tools such as GodMode9 or DotNet3DS. Follow this link for help with GodMode9.
When that is done, you can run executable from the Releases page. To unpack the files and make spreadsheets, just browse for the RomFS folder and select Unpack. It should automatically identify whether the files belong to Bravlely Default or Bravely Second, but make sure you double check this before proceeding.
Unpacked files will be dumped in the folder romfs_unpacked. There
you can edit spreadsheets or any of the other file with a hex
editor. When done, run the executable, browse for romfs_unpacked,
and click Pack to pack the files and build a mod. The mod will be
output in the folder romfs_packed, along with a log file listing
each file modified. You can run your mod on your console, for example,
with Luma
LayeredFS.
Editing files, even in a spreadsheet, will be a bit complicated. Please read this carefully:
-
The executable is only compatible with spreadsheets of the
.xlsformat. Do not reformat these files into.xlsxor anything else. -
Unpacking and packing files can be a bit slow. You can speed this up by removing large folders you won't be modding, such as
GraphicsorSound. Never remove files individually, as this can lead to issues when packing crowds. -
Some spreadsheets have text in them. These columns are labeled
TextandLabels. When these are present you'll also see some columns labeledText PntrandLabel Pntr. These columns need to be updated if you change any text, but don't worry! The tool will automatically update them for you!
