This bash script was made possible using ChatGPT for code conversion from Power Shell to Bash. Small tweaks edited afterwards to make it slightly more compatable.
Follow instructions to get the packer and unpacker from this post (Ryex#5) from Ryex's GitHub Page (https://github.com/Ryex/Dungeondraft-GoPackager).
Download FA_Repacker.sh from my source files here.
Copy dungeondraft-pack, dungeondraft-unpack, and FA_Repacker.sh to the folder where you have you Forgotten Adventures dungeondraft_pack files. This will be referred to as your "FA Directory".
You want to make sure you have all of your
dungeondraft_packfiles in the same FA Directory and not in sub-folders.
You will also need to install the jq JSON Parser
sudo apt install jq
Open terminal and navigate to the FA Directory and run the following command
./FA_Repacker.sh [--output <output folder>] [--clean]
Remove the original Forgotten Adventures dungeondraft_pack files?
The path to use when creating the new repacks.
This defaults to the current directory if ommitted.
Make sure you have enough disk space, you need about 2-3 times the total space of all dungeondraft_pack files available during the repacking operations.
Not possible to have this without the packer and unpacker from Ryex and the original PowerShell script of Chapel Studios
