Usage

./gsc-tool.exe <mode> <game> <path>

modes: asm, disasm, comp, decomp, parse

• note: zonetool files (.cgsc, .cgsc.stack) use: zasm, zdisasm, zcomp, zdecomp modes

games: iw5, iw6, iw7, iw8, iw9, s1, s2, s4, h1, h2, t6

• note: PS3 & Xbox 360 use iw5ps, iw5xb, iw6ps, iw6xb, s1ps, s1xb games

paths: file or directory (recursive process all files inside the directory)

Example: ./gsc-tool.exe comp iw5 ./data/iw5/my_fancy_script.gsc

Mode	Description	Output
asm	assemble a file.gscasm	file.gscbin
disasm	dissasemble a file.gscbin	file.gscasm
comp	compile a file.gsc	file.gscbin
decomp	decompile a file.gscbin	file.gsc
parse	parse a file.gsc	file.gsc

File Format

If you need to extract scripts from fastfiles or game memory, use Zonetool or Jekyll.

• gsc-tool .gscbin format is a serialized ScriptFile struct:
  name: null-terminated string
  compressedLen: 4 byte uint
  len: 4 byte uint
  bytecodeLen: 4 byte uint
  buffer: byte array[compressedLen]
  bytecode: byte array[bytecodeLen]
  

note: for PS3 & Xbox 360 .gscbin files (compressedLen, len, bytecodeLen) are saved as little-endian!!

• zonetool (IW5) format made of bytecode file .cgsc and decompressed stack buffer .cgsc.stack.

• treyarch (T6) format is a single buffer with gscobj data .gsc or .csc.
