PAK Explorer

This program is needed to view and create BZ2 PAK files, such as the data.pak file, which contains nearly all ODFs, models and textures used in Battlezone 2. A must-have for any serious modder.

TVEditor	A utility for the FE MOD (see readme for 1.2/stock conversion) that allows you to launch maps directly without the need to edit shortcuts. Installs a sandbox directory to test units and weapons without affecting your normal installation. Includes a customized editor interface and object list including standard objects from Forgotten Enemies.
Editor 2.0	Drop-in editor interface includes an expanded object list (Black Rooks), additional controls, and the Fury Skypack. This is the easiest interface to install in 1.2.
Lizard Editor	a drop-in editor interface that includes new objects from the Forgotten Enemies MOD.

BZ2 Model Editor

Also known as Threed, this utility allows you to perform cut-and-paste modelling on existing XSI models and to perform actions such as moving/adding hardpoints. This utility is not powerful enough to create models from scratch.

Winter v1.0

This utility allows you to perform various operations on maps without entering the Editor interface. These include a wide variety of things, including changing a map's color, height and textures using BMP files, as well as resizing a map entirely.

DLL Scriptor

A utility designed to simplify the creation of mission scripts. Designed to be simple to use and easy to learn, replacing the tedious method related with C/C++ mission making. [Direct Link]

Photoshop Pic Plugin	Allows you to import and save Softimage PIC files in Photoshop.
Font Edit	Allows you convert many existing truetype fonts to the BZ2 BMF (font) format which can be used in-game and in the shell in BZ2.
RAD Game Tools	Can be used to create Bink videos (the kind used in BZ2), not much else is known about this utility.

Battlezone 2 XSI Collection

Contains all of the official models used in Battlezone 2. Please note that the models are from version 1.0 so may contain bugs which were fixed in the later versions of Battlezone 2.

If you have a file you would like to see listed here, please email me and I will likely add the utility to these lists.
