## Usage
``./gsc-tool.exe <mode> <game> <system> <path>``

**mode**: `asm`, `disasm`, `comp`, `decomp`, `parse`
- *note:* zonetool files (*.cgsc*, *.cgsc.stack*) use: `zasm`, `zdisasm`, `zcomp`, `zdecomp` modes

**game**: `iw5`, `iw6`, `iw7`, `iw8`, `iw9`, `s1`, `s2`, `s4`, `h1`, `h2`, `t6` `t7` `t8` `t9`

**system**: `pc`, `ps3`, `ps4`, `ps5`, `xb2` (*360*), `xb3` (*One*), `xb4` (*Series X|S*), `wiiu`

**path**: `file` or `directory` (recursive process all files inside the directory)

Example: ``./gsc-tool.exe comp iw5 pc ./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](https://github.com/ZoneTool/zonetool) or [Jekyll](https://github.com/EthanC/Jekyll).

- gsc-tool `.gscbin` format is a serialized ScriptFile struct: <br/>
***name***: null-terminated string <br/>
***compressedLen***: 4 byte uint <br/>
***len***: 4 byte uint <br/>
***bytecodeLen***: 4 byte uint <br/>
***buffer***: byte array[compressedLen] <br/>
***bytecode***: byte array[bytecodeLen] <br/>

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`.

## Build
- install [*premake5*](https://premake.github.io) on your system PATH
- clone this repository
- update the submodules ``git submodule update --init --recursive``
- run prebuild script ``premake5 vs2022`` (windows) or ``premake5 gmake2`` (linux/macos)
