Command List
Display help for a specific command: e.g. unbundle -h
Unbundle
unbundle -p "PATH TO ARCHIVE" -o "OUTPUT PATH" -w *.mesh- Extracts all files from archive
-wUse optional search pattern (e.g. *.ink), if both regex and pattern is defined, pattern will be prioritized.-rUse optional regex pattern- -
-hash: Extract single file with a given hash. If a path is supplied, all hashes will be extracted
💡 Theunbundlecommand also takes folder paths as input (will recursively extract all .archives in a folder), or a list of paths (e.g.unbundle -p "C:\MODDING\archives\basegame_4_gamedata.archive" "C:\MODDING\archives\basegame_1_engine.archive"
💡 You can filter the files to extract from an archive with the-w(Wildcard) or the-r(Regex) filters:unbundle -p "PATH TO ARCHIVE" -w *.meshe.g. will only extract files with the extension .mesh.
Uncook
uncook --uext png -p "PATH TO ARCHIVE" -o "OUTPUT PATH" -or "RAW FOLDER OUTPUT PATH"- Extract all textures from archive, common formats (tga, bmp, jpg, png, dds) supported
-wUse optional search pattern (e.g. *.ink), if both regex and pattern is defined, pattern will be prioritized.-rUse optional regex pattern-hash: Extract single file with a given hash. If a path is supplied, all hashes will be extracted--flipUse boolean option (e.g. 'true' or 'false') : Flip textures vertically (can help with legibility if there's text)--forcebuffers: Force uncooking to buffers for given extension. e.g. mesh
❗ The REDEngine extension for textures is ".xbm"
💡 There are a number of files that support uncooking: .mesh, .csv, .xbm, .mlmask and many more.
💡 The in-game textures have .dds fileformat, but wolvenkit.cli supports conversions to the most common image formats (png, jpg, tga). E.g. to convert the game textures to png use:uncook -p "PATH TO ARCHIVE" --uext png
💡 The same options apply here as well: To uncook only textures useuncook -p "PATH TO ARCHIVE" -w *.xbmand it will only uncook files with the extension .xbm.
Import (Converting raw textures or buffers to redengine files)
import -p "INPUT PATH" -o "OUTPUT PATH" --keep- convert raw files (gltf/glb, dds) to redengine files
- -p can be a folder or file
- -o (optional) is the output path where the redengine files are created
- -k (optional) use this parameter if you have already existing redengine files in your output folder
⚠️ Until a next update will support fully custom textures, the dds need to be more or less exactly like the vanilla textures, i.e. same resolution, same mipmap count, same texture format.
❗ If you use -k you need both .dds/.buffer and .xbm/.mesh filesjudy_body_wet.xbmANDjudy_body_wet.ddsIf you use the optional -o, then the redengine files need to be located in that folder, while the raw files have to be in the folder specified with -p.
Export (Converting REDengine files to raw files)
export --uext png -p "PATH TO FILE"- Convert redengine file (mesh, xbm) to the corresponding raw files (gltf/glb, dds)
💡 You can specify a folder to export, or multiple filespack -p "FILE 1" "FILE 2"
💡 There are a number of files that support exporting: .mesh, .csv, .xbm, .mlmask and many more.
💡 The in-game textures have .dds fileformat, but wolvenkit.cli supports conversions to the most common image formats (png, jpg, tga). E.g. to convert the game textures to png use:export -p "PATH TO FILE" --uext png
Pack
pack -p "MODDED FOLDER PATH"- Pack a folder of redengine files: this will create a new .archive file.
💡 You can specify multiple folders to pack:pack -p "FOLDER 1" "FOLDER 2"
❗ Do not replace existing vanilla archives
CR2W
- Convert a redengine file into human readable form:
cr2w -s "<PATH TO FILE>" - Convert a json file into a redengine file:
cr2w -d "<PATH TO JSON>"
Tweak
tweak -p "<input directory>" -o "<output directory>"- Defaults to current directory if
-por-oare not specified.
The .tweak file must be in the following format, with either
flats or groups declared:1
flats:
2
Mycustom.flat:
3
type: Float
4
value: 1.0
5
groups:
6
MyOtherCustomRecordOrGroup.mine:
7
type: Vehicle
8
members:

type: array:String
14

- cow
16

17
- horse
18

Groups
Flats for the groups (also called records) are automatically created by appending the member's name to the end of the record's name. Using the example above, the following flats would be created:
1
Mycustom.flat
2
MyOtherCustomRecordOrGroup.mine.affiliation
3
MyOtherCustomRecordOrGroup.mine.animals
Copied!
A group's
type (Vehicle in the example above) should exist in CP2077 for it to be useful. The compiler will not warn you if the type doesn't exist, but TweakDBext will let you know upon loading it (watch for messages in red4ext\logs\tweakdb.log). Generally a TweakDB type is the RTTI type without gamedata or _Record (a full list can be see here, where the gamedata is already omitted from the filenames) - as an example, the a Vehicle's RTTI type is gamedataVehicle_Record.Types
Flats and group members must have one of the following as a base
type :1
CName

String

TweakDBID

raRef:CResource

Types can be prepended with
array: to create an array, like array:String in the example. Arrays can be formatted with hyphens & newlines as in the example, or specified with square brackets and commas. The same array could look like this:1
animals:
2
type: array:String
3
value: [ cow, pig, horse, cat ]
Copied!
Strings can left unenclosed, and optionally enclosed in double quotes, but if you're using paths with
raRef:CResource, you'll need to double-up the \, like this:1
curvesPath:
2
type: raRef:CResource
3
value: "base\\gameplay\\vehicles\\curves\\muscle_car.vehcurveset"
Copied!
raRef:CResource also accepts integers (ones that you might pull from a tweakdb output) in place of the path, like this:1
curvesPath:
2
type: raRef:CResource
3
value: 5774411407796421038

TweakDBID types can be the full path of the flat/group:
1
flats:
2
myFlat.reference:
3
type: TweakDBID
4
value: myOtherFlat.cow
Copied!
Or the shorthand that uses the hash & length, both in hexadecimal:
1
flats:
2
myFlat.reference:
3
type: TweakDBID
4
value: TDBID:12345678:12
Copied!
Vector3 are declared like this, using a capital XYZ:1
flats:
2
whereIam.position:
3
type: Vector3
4
value:
5
X: 0
6
Y: 0
7
Z: 0
