CTR:NF support

Since v1.31 the editor can open archives and levels from Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled (PS4), display their textures correctly, edit and save them, and copy their content into NST levels.

Limitations

• The tool has been tested on the debug build of CTR:NF, in which every level loads without error. Some levels from the retail version may not load correctly.
• Collisions in CTR:NF are heavily optimised: usually a single entity holds the collisions of the whole level, and most objects have no individual collision.
• CTR:NF levels are scaled by roughly 1.5 times compared to NST.
• Right-click → Select all NST-compatible objects selects everything that can be copied, which is the easiest way to move a whole level.

Convert a level from CTR:NF to NST

1. Create a new empty level in NST, with the base level set to none. See Create a new level.

2. In that level, delete Lighting → MainLighting and Other → worldVisualData, so the CTR:NF lighting and skybox can take their place.

3. Open the CTR:NF level in another level editor.

4. Use Right-click → Select all NST-compatible objects.

5. Optionally, use Right-click → Scale down selection to compensate for the 1.5 times scale difference (note: this can break some visual effects)

6. Copy the selection and paste it into the empty level.

7. Save the archive. Converting every texture from PS4 to PC can take a while.

Dying as soon as the level starts?

The death plane of the empty level is probably above the imported ground. Select Other → WorldInstance and lower the death plane height.

CTR:NF assets in the Object Library

Scan a folder of CTR:NF archives with Settings → Add custom folder in the Object Library to make its objects searchable and importable.
