GTA Mobile Alpha Checker (separate textures with alpha transparency)

(Portuguese)

To install textures in the mobile version of GTA, it's necessary to separate which ones have and don't have transparency, and unfortunately, the texture installer tool doesn't know how to identify this automatically yet.

This .bat uses ImageMagick to identify which .png images have transparency and which don't. Then there are steps for you to split the list and use another .bat to move the alpha files, and so you have the split ready and automated.

Everything can still improve, but at least it works and automates the process very well, especially for texture pack mods, which have thousands of textures.

1 - Put all textures in the "input" folder and run "1- Run.bat".

2 - Open in notepad++, select all lines, and press ctrl + j

3 - Change ''false, '' to ''.opq, '' and ''true, '' to ''.png, '' (caution with spaces)

4 - Go to replace, in ''find'' put:
.png,\s*
and in ''replace with'' put:
.png,\n
and click on ''replace all''

Do the same with .opq
.opq,\s*
.opq,\n

5 - In search, put .*.opq, leave ''replace with'' empty (remember to disable the option to match line break).

6 - Go to remove empty lines (operations with lines)

7 - Search for ''.png,'' and replace it with nothing

8 - Now you have a list of filenames that have alpha. Use a bat to move a list of files:

Código: Selecionar tudo

set FIILELIST="E:\Documents\list.txt"
set FILESPATH="E:\Documents\input"
set DESTPATH="E:\Documents\final"

for /f "delims=" %%x in (%FIILELIST%) do (forfiles /p %FILESPATH% /s /m %%x.* /c "cmd /c move /y @path %DESTPATH%\@file" 2>>failed_temp.txt)
for /f "tokens=5 " %i in (failed_temp.txt) do (echo.%~i)>>failed_list.txt
del failed_temp.txt

Save this in .bat and run.
Before, configure the addresses of the files according to your case.
The list of names of textures with alpha is in "list.txt", while the files are in "input" and will go to "final".
This way you will have the separation of textures that have alpha from those that don't.
