=== StatsUtil ===

StatsUtil is a tool created by PsyCommando that can be used to export some of the game’s binary files to XML files and then import them back into the game after making changes. SkyTemple can now do everything that StatsUtil can, so there’s no real reason to use it unless SkyTemple isn’t working for you or you want to manually edit some data without an UI.

StatsUtil is a tool created by PsyCommando that can be used to export some of the game’s binary files and scripts to XML files and then import them back into the game after making changes. SkyTemple can now do almost everything that StatsUtil can, so there’s no real reason to use it unless SkyTemple isn’t working for you, you want to manually edit some data without an UI, or you want to mass import and export scripts.

Unlike SkyTemple, StatsUtil is a command line tool, it doesn’t have an interface and must be run using the terminal or batch files to execute commands. If you want to try it out it’s recommended to download [https://projectpokemon.org/home/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=45770 Psy’s modding setup folder], which contains StatsUtil + Ndstool (needed to unpack the rom so StatsUtil can read and write the files) + Some .bat files you can use to run StatsUtil without having to type commands yourself.
