This is a collection of cross-platform, FFXIV modding tools. These don't use any pre-existing modding framework (Lumina,
xivModdingFramework, etc) but instead my own custom modding library, [libxiv](https://git.sr.ht/~redstrate/libxiv).

The goal is to create a good set of tools that isn't based on WPF and C#, and can work cross-platform without having
to resort to Wine.

**Note:** This is alpha level software, not intended to be usable in any capacity at the moment. Thus, I have not tagged
any stable releases.

## exdviewer

This is used to view excel data from the game. It's pretty basic right now but it seems to read anything I throw at it just fine.

### Usage

You must pass the path to your `sqpack` directory as the first argument.

`exdviewer.exe C:\Program Files (x86)\SquareEnix\Final Fantasy XIV\game\sqpack`

## mdlviewer

mdlviewer can display any arbitrary mdl file from the game, provided that it's supported by libxiv and you know it's path.
