CTFAK UnEx (Standing for ClickTeam Fusion Army Knife Unfinished Experiment) was an experimental version of a tool developed by Kostya with help from Yunivers which can be used to either decompile or dump assets of games made with the Clickteam Fusion 2.5 game engine.
CTFAK UnEx existed only to store a version of CTFAK 2.0 I never finished and never published on the real repo due to lack of stability.
Note
Due to unforseen circumstances, Actions are no longer being offered. See Compilation
CTFAK UnEx required .NET 6.0's Desktop Runtime.
After running the x64 installers, you may proceed with the compilation.
Make sure you have Visual Studio 2022 installed and open.
On the GitHub branch, click Code and copy the HTTPS URL.
In Visual Studio 2022, under Get started, click Clone a repository, then paste the HTTPS URL from earlier. Input your desired path and press Clone.
Right click the solution on the right and press Build Solution or do it through the key bind Control + Shift + B, then right click the solution once again and press Open Folder in File Explorer.
Now, you should be able to run CTFAK.Cli.exe without problems!
CTFAK UnEx was very easy to use and requires little input from the user.
To get started, open CTFAK.Cli.exe and drag in your Clickteam Fusion 2.5 exe, apk, ccn, dat, bin, or mfa file and press enter.
In parameters, you can input anything listed in Parameters, but make sure to put a - before each one. If you don't want to input any parameters (which you normally shouldn't need to do) then you can leave it blank. After you've filled out your parameters, press enter.
If you're using a ccn, dat, or bin file it will bring up a prompt asking you to select a file reader. In any case, select CCN.
If all goes according to plan, you should see a screen saying Reading finished in _ seconds along with some information about the game. From here you may run any plugins you have installed. Normal installations should have Export as MFA, Dump Everything, Image Dumper, Sound Dumper, Packed Data Dumper, and Sorted Image Dumper.
Do not use the Restart CTFAK option as it is non-functional. Please remember that this is an unfinished version of CTFAK.
