The Unknown Soul
Now, most of us have been dealing with Soulcalibur 2 and Soulcalibur 3 modding for quite some time now. And there are times where the OLK Explorer (which is made by Cypher35) can come short, or at some cases, even break the game.
Which is why I have taken the responsibility to create something that, was more precise, accurate and feature-full than the OLK Explorer (but also bigger), presenting the all-new:
OLK & PKG Editor (looking for a better name)
As you can see, it is a bit more, erm, cluttered than the OLK Explorer we all know and love. But that's for a good reason.
To start off, let's talk about some of the features the new explorer packs:
Now you have seen all the features and ask: "Does it do anything else that can sell it for me?"
Well, yes, it does things faster, and it can also edit PKG files.
Opening the Soulcalibur 3 ROOT file takes 20 seconds on the OLK Explorer, while it takes 12 in this tool.
(Keep in mind that this tool creates a temp file in order to be mistake-free with it's saving feature, which the OLK Explorer does not.
The times can vary depending on the hard-disk, random access memory and operating system health.)
Well, now you may be asking: "Can we see more screenshots of this tool?"
And I say to that: Go ahead, I will show them with pleasure:
Now, since this is not the first version, you can see the changelog of this tool below:
A complete overhaul to the tool is currently in progress, and because of a subfile edit issue that will be fixed at this overhaul, the links have been removed temporarily.
With your support, the age of Soulcalibur Modding can be sprung into life again.

As you can see, it is a bit more, erm, cluttered than the OLK Explorer we all know and love. But that's for a good reason.
To start off, let's talk about some of the features the new explorer packs:
Classics: This tool can reliably extract files from and import files unto the opened OLK and PKG Files and their Level-1 Subfiles.
It also packs a saving feature to prevent mistakes, unlike the OLK Explorer.
Convenience: This tool can name files within the opened files and save them to a TOML Config File
for later use, and also packs a dark mode.
Safety: In order to prevent theft and other sorts of dirty business, one can encrypt and decrypt their files which
the tool won't be able to open without the set password. And it also packs a fail-safe feature and allows you to continue
your work from where you left off in case anything happens.
Accessibility: This tool color-codes all the known formats to make it easier to tell what files are what, gives a clear graphical
representation of a file, and supports 2 languages: English and Turkish.
Game Knowledge: This file can identify which ROOT files came from which game, region and console.
