VPKEdit

VPKEdit is an open source MIT-licensed tool that can extract from, preview the contents of and write to vpk archives, BSP paklumps, and many other pack file formats, as well as create new VPKs of any version. It currently supports previewing text formats, image formats, audio formats, VTF files, MDL files, and DMX files without having to extract the file from the archive. Incremental file operations like adding or removing files are supported for all formats.

The VPKEdit tool is powered by an open-source library called sourcepp, written in C++20 and also under the MIT license.

A CLI version called vpkeditcli replicates the behavior of the Valve vpk CLI tool, with extra features like incremental modification of pack files, and support for working with other formats besides VPKs.

Requires

At minimum, it requires Windows 10 64-bit, or a modern version of Linux.
