SWG TRE Packager

Copyright (c) 2025 Wasted Potential Studios LLC. All rights reserved.

Pack Star Wars Galaxies assets into game-ready .tre archives directly from the VS Code Explorer. Right-click any folder or multi-file selection and ship a clean archive that matches the client's expected format.

What it does

• Right-click a folder → SWG: Package Folder to TRE
• Right-click one or more files → SWG: Package Selected Files to TRE
• Uses TRE version 0005 by default with smart compression and MD5 blocks for client integrity
• Preserves relative paths so assets load exactly where the engine expects
• Runs a quick post-build validation to catch structural issues before you share

How to use

1. Open your SWG workspace in VS Code.
2. In the Explorer, select a folder or multi-select files.
3. Choose the SWG TRE Packager command from the context menu.
4. Pick the save location and wait for the success toast. That's it.

Settings

• swg-tre-packager.defaultVersion (default 0005) — target TRE version.
• swg-tre-packager.compressFiles (default true) — attempt per-file zlib compression.
• swg-tre-packager.compressToc (default true) — compress TOC block.
• swg-tre-packager.compressNames (default true) — compress filename block.
• swg-tre-packager.outputDirectory (optional) — force all builds into a specific folder.
• swg-tre-packager.showNotifications (default true) — toggle toast messages.
