Beginning 开头

Just for the record, there is no official modding support for this game and this is all unofficial.

For the purposes of the guide I will be using a Girls und Panzer overhaul as an example.

To start you will need to access the game's files, which you can do by right clicking on Panzer Knights in your Steam library, then go to the "Manage" tab and then left click on "Browse Local Files" as shown here:

提前说明,游戏并没有提供任何官方工具,以下所有的修改均为非官方的

下面我将以少女与战车大修为例来详细讲解

首先,您需要访问游戏根目录,可以从steam游戏库中右键单击Panzer Knights,然后转到

“管理”标签,左键单击“浏览本地文件”,如图所示:

After clicking on "Browse Local Files" as shown above you will end up here:

如上图所示,单击“浏览本地文件”后,您将在这里找到您需要的:

Then keep clicking on the folders as follows -

\Steam\steamapps\common\Panzer Knights\Panzer Knights_Data\StreamingAssets\bundles\StandaloneWindows64

Where you will find the folders for the assets of the game here:

然后继续单击以下文件夹-

\ Steam \ steamapps \ common \ Panzer Knights \ Panzer Knights_Data \ StreamingAssets \ bundles \ StandaloneWindows64

您可以在这个文件夹中找到游戏资源:

I would make a gif of this process as well but sadly my recording software doesn't work in Windows Explorer.

我也会对此过程做一个gif图像,但可惜的是,我的录制软件无法在Windows资源管理器中运行。

What You Can Do (Art/Pictures) 你能够做什么(人物立绘、图片)

For now there are 3 things that I have found out that we can do and those are -

Editing the character portraits, which are found in the "art" folder of which you can view the contents of here:

现在,我发现我们可以做3件事情,它们是-

编辑人物立绘,它们可以在“ art”文件夹中被找到,您可以在这里查看其内容:

The folders "character_I", "character_s" and "wingman" all contain character pictures as you can see in this example picture:

在本示例图片中可以看到,文件夹“ character_I”,character_s”和“ wingman”都包含人物立绘:

In this folder specifically, as in "character_I", are all of the full portraits of the characters which have the dimensions of 400x720, meaning a width of 400 pixels and height of 720 pixels and are in the format of "png" with a transparent or alpha channel background.

Note: Simply renaming a picture from .jpg for example to .png will NOT work. You need to properly convert a picture from another picture type if it's not already png in order for the game to read it, otherwise you will just get a blank and empty picture.

In the "character_s" folder are present all versions of the regular portraits but in a square 128x128 pixel format meant for the character selection screen and others, all of the above what was said for the pictures in the "character_I" folder section apply here as well about the picture type and so forth.

The same as the above also applies for the pictures in the "wingman" folder, these are the character pictures of your friendly tanks in the platoon.

There is one last folder called "character eyes" that seems to contain an open and closed versions of the eyes of the character portrait. These are I'm assuming used for the bubble texts to create the illusion of the characters opening and closing their eyes so they don't look like robots staring into your soul all of the time, or something.

具体来说在这个文件夹中,用“ character_I”举例,里面都是尺寸为400x720(长宽比)的人物全身像。 宽度为400像素,高度为720像素,格式为“ png”,用有透明或Alpha通道背景。

注意:只将图片从.jpg重命名为.png是行不通的。你需要将你其他格式的图片(比如jpg或者什么别的奇怪格式)正确地转换为png格式,以便游戏读取它。如果游戏读取不到png格式的图片,在游戏里只会显示空白图片

在“ character_s”文件夹则包含了所有的人物大头照,但以128x128像素的正方形格式来展示,用于人物选择界面和其他一些(比如游戏中装填手提示装填完成之类的),上述在“ character_I”文件夹中的所有图片内容均适用于此处,当然图片格式也是png。

与上述相同的内容也适用于“ wingman”文件夹中的图片,这些是你队伍中的友军坦克的角色图片。

最后一个名为“角色眼睛”的文件夹似乎包含人物立绘的眼睛睁开和闭上的版本。我认为这些图片是用于对话中的,这样角色就可以眨眼了,再也不会像机器人一直无时无刻地盯着你的灵魂。(然而更换立绘的时候还是需要把眼睛删掉,不然就会出现非常鬼畜的一幕——译者注)

What You Can Do (Audio/Voices) 你能做什么(音频/语音)


How to mod Panzer Knights, a (visual) guide image 42

This is the part where we talk about the sounds or character voices of the game that just got recently added in the 1.0 full release of the game so this is an entirely new feature not present in the earlier "Early Access" versions of the game.

The Audio is, obviously, contained in the "audio" folder of the game as seen here:

这一部分我们会谈论游戏的声音或角色声音的部分,这一系统是最近在游戏1.0正式版中添加的,内测版本并没有战斗中的bgm和角色语音。

音频显然位于在游戏的“音频”文件夹中,如下所示:

What you see is 14 folders of character voice lines saved in .ogg format.

They are in Japanese and I am unsure if there will be English, German or any other voice lines in the future

Each folder corresponds to the character name in the game files, for example "FA" means Female A, as in the first female character which had a portrait name of "f001l" in the above art/pictures section and the name "Stefanie Winter" in the actual game, how to change the names of characters will be presented in the next section.

Moving on with the audio/voices of the characters, there's other "F" character voice folders going all the way up to the letter "H", as in "FB", "FC", "FD" and so forth which stand for the other female characters in the game.

The letter "M" stands for male, as in "MA", "MB" and so on which are obviously the male characters. Again the folders go all the way to the letter "H" which means there are 7 female and 7 male character audio folders, so 14 in total as specified before.

Each folder contains around 90 something voice lines but some characters have a bit less than others, especially the males or at least that's what I've noticed.

They are saying things like "Tank", "Reloaded" and other stuff like that.

So once again, the file format or type is .ogg, meaning that in order for you to replace these with your own custom files, let's say with a voice file from the Girls und Panzer or Company of Heroes voice packs from War Thunder, if they are mp3 or wav you will need to properly convert them to .ogg as with the picture files and not just rename the file extensions because that will simply not work.

您所看到的是14个以.ogg格式保存的角色语音文件夹。

角色默认说的是日语,我不确定将来会不会有英语语音,德语或其他语言。

每个文件夹对应游戏文件中的角色名称,例如,“ FA”表示女性A(Female A),就像在上述立绘/图片部分中图片名称为“ f001l”,对应游戏中第一个女性角色斯塔法妮·温特,如何更改角色名称将在下一部分中介绍。

接下来看看角色的音频/语音,还有其他“ F”字符语音文件夹,一直到字母“ H”,如“ FB”,“ FC”,“ FD”等代表游戏中的其他女性角色。

字母“ M”代表男性,如“ MA”,“ MB”等,显然是男性字符。文件夹再次一直到字母“ H”。

每个文件夹包含大约90条语音,但是某些角色比其他角色少一些,尤其是男性角色,或者至少这是我注意到的。(妹子才是正宫)

他们说的是“坦克”,“装弹中”之类的。(你要是懂日语的话就很容易听懂了)

此外再提醒一遍,文件格式或类型是.ogg格式,这意味着为了让您用自己的自定义文件替换这些文件,比如说用来自少战的语音文件或战雷的英雄连语音包,如果它们是mp3或wav格式的,您将需要将其正确转换为图片中所展示的的.ogg格式,而不仅仅是直接改文件扩展名,因为这根本行不通。

What You Can Do (Text) 你能做什么(文本)

For this section we will need to go back a couple of folders to here -

\Steam\steamapps\common\Panzer Knights\Panzer Knights_Data\StreamingAssets\table

As shown in this picture:

在本节中,我们将需要找到table文件夹,位置在

\ Steam \ steamapps \ common \ Panzer Knights \ Panzer Knights_Data \ StreamingAssets \ table

如图所示:

These files are in the .scv format which seem to be Microsoft Excel type files which I guess you can also open with Openoffice and other such free table reading alternatives if you don't own or have the Microsoft Office suite.

Inside the Localization.scv file you will find the character names:

这些文件采用.scv格式,似乎是如果您没有Microsoft Office全家桶,我想您也可以使用Openoffice和其他类似的免费表格读取程序来打开Excel类型的文件。

在Localization.scv文件中,您会找到角色名称:

As you can see there's Stefanie Winter, the first female character's name which I mentioned in the previous audio section.

Note: There are 2 references here, the first one is "Panzer Vor" from Girls und Panzer made by the developers and the other is the last name of Stefanie is also the family name of the 2 main characters from the German WW2 series "Generation War", or "Unsere Mütter, unsere Väter" in German.

Anyway, moving on.

More or I would say most text featured in the game is included here which also includes the character backgrounds:

您可以看到斯塔法妮·温特,这是我在上一个音频部分中提到的第一个女性角色的名字。

注意:此处有2个有趣的地方,第一个是开发人员致敬少战的“ Panzer Vor”,另一个是斯塔法妮的姓氏,温特,也是德剧《我们的父辈中》男主兄弟二人的姓氏。(真的是致敬《父辈》么,感觉有点牵强——译者注)

不管了,让我们往下看。

我要说的是,游戏中包含的大多数文字都包含在其中,其中还包括角色背景:

And mission dialog:

和任务对话框:

Plus other things such as the character bonuses and so on and so forth, you get the idea. I am assuming that all of these are editable so an (almost) complete overhaul of the game is, at least in theory, possible by replacing all of the pictures, audio and text.

以及角色升级等其他内容,你懂的。我假设所有这些都是可编辑的,因此至少在理论上,可以通过替换所有图片,音频和文本对游戏进行(几乎)完整的大修。

As mentioned at the start of the guide some Girls und Panzer modifications will be used as examples of what can be done, at least with the picture files.

如本指南开头所提到的,我们目前可以通过更改替换图片文件,让Panzer Knights瞬间变成少战。

These pictures are courtesy of my friend, AGENTS OF G.E.N.S.E.C.

这些图片由我的朋友,AGENTS OF G.E.N.S.E.C.提供(没错就是我——译者注)

Final Words 最后的话

Between the 3 sections, as in art, audio and tables, the pictures, voice and text files can all be edited to create an overhaul mod for the game as mentioned previously.

I want to once again thank my friend AGENTS OF G.E.N.S.E.C. for helping me mod the game and providing the picture examples of modding in the game and what's possible.

Lastly, nothing here is final and everything is up to be changed up, from the pictures to the text and in the future I also hope to provide some videos as well as a showcase of the modding potential of the game with audio and everything.

I would also very much appreciate any feedback, ideas and suggestions from people about the guide.

Cheers and thank you for taking the time to read my blocks of text mixed in with pictures.

在art,audio和table 3个文件夹中,图片,声音和文本文件都可以被编辑,以创建属于你的游戏大修mod,如前文所述。

我要再次感谢我的朋友AGENTS OF G.E.N.S.E.C.,帮助我制作游戏mod,并提供了游戏中mod的图片示例以及制作方法。

最后,还没完,从图片到文字,一切都可以被改变,在未来,我还希望放出一些视频、音频和其他一切范例来展示游戏潜力。

我也非常感谢大家对本指南的提出任何反馈,想法和建议。

干杯,谢谢您抽出宝贵的时间阅读我的文字和图片。
