Gamecube stuff

Executables (all with source code if you want to take a look):

• szstools 1.0 - Extract data from gcm and szs files (as found in supermariosunshine.gcm), with source + docs. Contains gcmdump (a tool to extract files from gcm files), yaz0dec (a Yaz0 decoder) and rarc dump (a .arc/.rarc extractor)

You can view some images of my work over here (be sure to view all the posts, not only the first page of each thread ;-) ):

• SZS thread part 1
• SZS thread part 2

You'll also find bmdview2 on that forum. bmdview2 is the program you see at the top of this page. A recent version of bmdview2's source code is available here. You can use this as a fairly complete spec of the bmd file format (a 3d file format used by Mario Sunshine, Mario Kart Double Dash, Zelda: The Wind Waker, Zelda: Twilight Princess, Mario Galaxy, and several others).

These programs were not written by me:

• yaz0enc (with source), a Yaz0 encoder written by shevious/daegunlee.

Be sure to check out yagcd, an excellent source of information about the cube. libogc is useful as well. I've written a short overview of the gamecube's tev unit.
