| Description |
A graphical MakeWDG tool for creating legacy Warzone 2100 WDG mod archives, aimed at the original Pumpkin Studios-derived versions of the game.
The tool provides a GUI alternative to the original command-line MakeWDG workflow. It can build WDG4 and addon WDG5 archives, add one or more WRF files, include misc-data patterns, configure binary IMD/SCRIPT lookup options, and set addon dependency metadata.
It includes helper tools for generating WRF files from a selected data folder using educated resource-type guesses, skipping existing WRF files safely, and detecting base Warzone WDG dependency information to suggest sensible addon sequence settings.
Useful for modders who want to package edited stats, scripts, research data, messages, models, images, audio, and other supported Warzone resources into WDG files without manually writing every MakeWDG command.
Features:
- Build WDG4 and addon WDG5 archives
- Add multiple WRF files to a single WDG
- Generate WRF files from a selected data folder
- Guess common Warzone resource types for stats, research, scripts, messages, images, audio, models, and texture pages
- Detect base Warzone WDG dependency information
- Suggest addon sequence numbers
- Configure addon name and dependencies
- Support binary IMD and SCRIPT folder lookup options
- Include misc-data file patterns
- Preview and edit generated WRF text before saving
- Built-in instructions/help section
Compatibility note:
This tool is for legacy WDG-based Warzone 2100 modding. Modern Warzone 2100 releases use different mod packaging formats, so this tool is mainly useful for original, retail, and Pumpkin-derived versions/tools that still use WDG archives.
System requirements:
Warzone Make WDG is a Windows desktop application built for .NET Framework 4.7.2. It is intended for legacy/original Pumpkin Studios-derived Warzone 2100 modding workflows that use WDG archives.
To build useful WDG files, you will need a prepared mod data folder containing the files you want to package, and usually access to the original Warzone WDG files, such as warzone.wdg, when creating addon WDGs with dependencies.
Detailed System requirements:
- Windows desktop PC
- .NET Framework 4.7.2 or later
- Warzone 2100 original/Pumpkin-derived game files or WDGs to use as a base
- Read/write access to your mod working folder and output WDG folder
- Optional: existing WRF files if you already maintain them manually
