- build_cjk.py: 2048x1024 UI atlas (original ASCII at 0,0 + full GB2312 at 12px) and cjk_glyph/cjk_metric tables. - cn_strings.py + make_cn_strings.py: escape-aware GB2312 rewrite of Strings.dat (46 entries). - install_cjk.py: one-shot deploy/restore (exe patch, atlas loose+res, strings). - apply_cjk.py: fix metrics cave code byte order (was (second<<8)|first) so CJK width measures correctly and centred labels are no longer flushed right. - docs: DEVLOG + patch notes for the atlas and the fix.

# The I of the Dragon — fan tools (localization + HD)
|
|
|
|
Reverse-engineering and localization tooling for *The I of the Dragon* (Topware / Primal Software).
|
|
|
|
This repository tracks **only our own tools and documentation**. It does **not** contain the game,
|
|
its assets, or any cracked distribution — those are regenerated/produced locally from a legit copy.
|
|
|
|
## Layout
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
tools/ Python tooling (unpack, repack, preprocess, font patch, decoders)
|
|
docs/ DEVLOG, format specs, patch notes
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Working data (not tracked): `original/`, `png/`, `report/`, `patch/`, `crack/`.
|
|
|
|
## Tooling
|
|
|
|

|
| `tools/res_unpack.py` | extract a `.res` archive (index + raw blobs, 16-byte aligned) |
|
|
| `tools/res_repack.py` | rebuild a `.res` byte-identically from a directory |
|
|
| `tools/preprocess.py` | convert textures to PNG + build classification report |
|
|
| `tools/make_plan.py` | build an HD upscale plan from the report |
|
|
| `tools/decode_dat.py` | decode/encode the XOR-obfuscated `Fonts.dat` / `*Description.dat` |
|
|
| `tools/fontparse.py` | parse `Fonts.dat` into font blocks and glyph rects |
|
|

|
|
| `tools/apply_cjk.py` | apply the double-byte font-rendering patch |
|
|
| `tools/build_cjk.py` | build the 2048x1024 UI font atlas + `cjk_glyph`/`cjk_metric` tables |
|
|
| `tools/cn_strings.py` | simplified-Chinese translation table (`Id` -> text) |
|
|
| `tools/make_cn_strings.py` | patch the `English` column of `Strings.dat` to GB2312 |
|
|
| `tools/install_cjk.py` | deploy/restore the whole patch into the game folder |
|
|
| `tools/xrefs.py` | find call/jmp xrefs in the game executable |

No game data is distributed here. Patches are produced by the user against their own copy.
