Background ​

Packing or unpacking a mod using the official GUTS editor normally requires sitting through a ~20-second load time while the full suite of editor features initializes.
TL2-Mikuro was designed as a lightweight CLI alternative for mod packaging and unpackaging, initializing in just about 3 seconds.
Because it calls export functions in EditorGuts.dll directly, the GUTS editor package still needs to be installed in the environment.

Installation ​

Simply drop TL2-Mikuro.exe into the same folder as Editor.exe / Torchlight2.exe to run.

Known Limitations ​

Constrained by the internal path logic of EditorGuts.dll, mod packaging only accepts project directories located under the mods folder, and unpacking output will likewise be extracted into a mods folder under the destination directory.
As this tool was originally written during the author's early exploration of WPF and C#, please excuse any rough edges; feedback and pull requests are welcome.

Roadmap ​

Further reverse engineering of EditorGuts.dll to explore standalone packaging without relying on official editor binaries.
