Python library for analysing .bsp files
bsp_tool provides a Command Line Interface for analysing .bsp files
Current development is focused on bringing new maps to Counter-Strike: Online 2 & the Titanfall Engine
To use the latest version, clone from git:
$ git clone git@github.com:snake-biscuits/bsp_tool.git
Or to use the latest stable release (0.4.0), install via pip (Python 3.7-10):
pip install bsp_tool
Please do not use bsp_tool to copy or steal another creator's work
The primary goal of bsp_tool is to extend community mapping tools
- Ask the creator's permission before touching their work
- Understand that by default creator's works are under copyright
- Contact the original creator to get their permission
- This can get complicated
- Some creators don't hold the copyright on their works
- often because of Company / Publisher contracts
- Credit the original creator; once you have permission to share a derivative work
- Support the official release
DO NOT use this tool to steal another creator's work
DO use this tool to understand the .bsp format(s) and create more specific tools
Be aware that this gets even more complicated with commercial projects
To load a .bsp file in python:
>>> import bsp_tool
>>> bsp_tool.load_bsp("map_folder/filename.bsp")
