UE 5 Asset Reader
Allow for extension into a savegame reader - existing Ark 1 readers have no support behind them so are unlikely to be updateable.
Rigidly define an output format for asset reader - decide how much is needed for all possible uses downstream.
Reading requirements
- Default should be to list exports (including their metadata)
- …requires reading import and string tables
- Ability to read entire property tables of individual exports on-demand
- Ability to read bulk-data of individual exports on-demand (texture/sound data, other stuff)
- …requires reading property table to calculate offset
