What is Crash NST Maker?

Crash NST Maker is an open-source mod manager and level editor for Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy on PC.

You can use it to launch custom levels, export assets (audio, textures, 3D models…) and edit game archives.

It is the successor of The Apprentice, an earlier proof of concept that I made to understand how the game works and how it could be modded. This version was rebuilt from scratch in C# with a focus on advanced level editing, performance and stability.

For What you can do
Players Use the Main Menu to launch community levels and custom hubs, apply and remove mods, start the game at any level.
Creators Use the Level Editor to create levels from scratch or from an existing level, edit them in a 3D scene view, and launch the game directly into your level.
Advanced users Use the Archive Editor to open any .pak archive, edit the IGZ and Havok files inside, preview or extract models, textures, materials and audio.
