❌: Compatibility will not be ensured or will not be checked, or the compatibility will be impossible because of the engine version.

¹_{Wolverine should be supported on its launch, but the compatibility status may change on release and become incompatible.}

🌃 About Nightly Builds

Nightly builds are highly unstable builds that are updated on every single change made to the editor.
Soon, an auto-updating system will be incorporated to RiftRipper and you will be able to choose your update channel: nightly or release.
The nightly channel is recommended only for developers, because it has debug and symbol files, and it may slow your experience using it.
If you want to use stable versions of the level editor, please only take releases!

For the ones who were too lazy to read the text above like me, basically it means that it's the very latest versions containing all the features working in the level editor actually, and that the list below here are all the features that have been made and that are working.

🚧 TODO list (features working in Nightly builds)

All the features here are listed in the order they will be done.

ℹ️ v1.0.0 Information

🔑 TODO List / features for the `v1.0.0`

✅ Open and view a level.
✅ Extract the model as an OBJ or FBX model.
✅ Repack the edits in the orginal file without editing the DAG/TOC hyperlinks files.
❔ Extract the textures.
❔ Repack the edits in a new file with new TOC/DAG files in order to just have to replace the orginal DAG and TOC instead of re-downloading the entire game.
❔ Edit the levels and save the edits in the original level or in a project file.
❌ Edit instance parameters of entities.
❌ Make new portals of any kind (on Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart).
❌ Bundle several mods without breaking other mods (for that, users will have to edit themselves the mods to bundle those together).
❌ Export animations.
❌ Edit gameplay features/game's code.
❌ Swap/change/edit environment models
❌ Swap/change/edit textures
⚔️ Swap/change/edit entities models¹.

✅: Will be supported, at least for Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart.
❔: Depending on what is being discovered and reversed, and depending on the events, it may possibly be supported. So maybe.
❌: Will for sure not be support for this version. Maybe in the future ?
⚔️: Will not be handled by the level editor. You better check for an other tool.
