A standalone customized version of Katalash's HKX2 library for Havok packfile deserialization and serialization used in DSMapStudio.

This fork modified classes for Skyrim SE hkx file.

• Serialize and Deserialize .hkx file. (include behaviors, skeleton and aniamtions)
• Export to XML.
• XML to HKX use figment/hkxcmd, nexus
• Supports Breath of the Wild packfiles used on Wii U and Switch (might support other games that use the same classes). (Skyrim SE only)
• Supports conversion of packfiles between those two platforms. (SE only)

• Ragdoll files (.hkrg) differ from vanilla files because of different fixup ordering. This issue shouldn't affect functionality.
• can't deserialize some old FNIS generated hkx files due to malformed(?) __classname__ or virtualFixup section or wrong assigned member (hkbBlendingTransitionEffec assign to hkbStateMachineTransitionInfoArray)

git submodule add https://github.com/ret2end/HKX2Library <your-repo-dir>/some/path/HKX2Library

Then reference it in your solution and project.

using HKX2;

namespace PlatformConverter
{
    internal static class Program
    {
        private static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            string inFile = args[0];
            string outFile = args[1];
            string outPlatform = args[2];

            HKXHeader header = HKXHeader.SkyrimSE();

            using (FileStream rs = File.OpenRead(inFile))
            {
                var br = new BinaryReaderEx(rs);
                var des = new PackFileDeserializer();

                var root = (hkRootLevelContainer) des.Deserialize(br);

                using (FileStream ws = File.Create(outFile))
                {   
                    // to hkx
                    var bw = new BinaryWriterEx(ws);
                    var s = new PackFileSerializer();

                    s.Serialize(root, bw, header);
                    
                    // or to xml
                    var xs = new XmlSerializer();
                    xs.Serialize(root, header, ws);
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

• ./HKX2/Autogen/ contains Havok classes generated from dumped skyrim classes by SKSE plugin.
• ./HKX2/Manual/ also contains generated classes with small adjustment.
• Differences in class structure between games and platforms is dependent on Havok version used and platform's header information (pointer size, endian, padding option). no

• Unit test
• xml to 64bit hkx?
• export animation?
