DESCRIPTION
Read and extract SCS archive contents.
Unless otherwise specified with the --mount
option, this tool will search for the game install dir inside your Steam library and mount every .scs file found in there. If you have more than one SCS game installed, you can specify which one to work on using the --game
option.
Archive contents can be listed using the --list-*
commands. Some files may not appear in a directory index. Such "orphans" can be listed separately. Files, orphans and directories can be extracted by using the --extract
command.
Note that HashFS version 2 texture objects are not yet implemented. Trying to extract those with this tool currently won't yield a useful result.
COMMANDS
- --extract, -x
-
Extract the given paths from the mounted archives (including subdir contents, if any). If
-
is given as path, this tool will read the list of paths to extract from standard input. - --help, -?
-
Display this manual page.
- --list-dirs
-
Write all directory paths in mounted archives to standard output.
- --list-files
-
Write all file paths in mounted archives to standard output.
- --list-orphans
-
Write the hash of all orphans in mounted archives to standard output.
- --version

Display version information.
OPTIONS
- --game, -g
-
The game install dir to work on. Accepts a full path, the full game name, or the abbreviated game name (
ATS
orETS2
). Given a game name, this tool will search several common locations for your Steam library. If your Steam library is installed in a non-standard location, you can set the environment variableSTEAM_LIBRARY
. See Archive::SCS::GameDir for other options. - --mount, -m
-
SCS archive file to mount. May be given multiple times. Accepts a full or relative path or a simple filename; the latter will be matched to the game install dir, see
--game
. If not given, all the archives in the install dir will be mounted. - --output, -o
-
Any extracted files and directories will be created in the specified path. If
-
is given as path, this tool will write to standard output instead of creating files (best used for extracting single files only). - --recursive, -r
-
Extract directory contents recursively. If this option is not given, extracting a directory will only create the directory itself, but not any files inside it.
- --verbose, -v
-
Print diagnostic information.
