WrpTool by WrpTool Development Team, PMC

The premium terrain/island editing software for OFP.

Snake Man started to figure out how to edit WRP files in 2002. For long time it was no luck, most people said it cant be done and so forth. Luckily great guy called a-lone-wolf came around and supplied the wrp file formats. From there with help of Rom (Romolus?) Snake Man coded the first lines of WrpTool source code. Screenshots got posted and noise was made. Then Dschulle came around and joined the team with his excellent C++ coding capabilities. But with sad events regarding MLOD converter and BAS, April 2004 Rom decided to quit from the team. WrpTool Development team continued with Dschulle and Snake Man.

Latest released version is v0.950

WrpTool is excellent utility to edit OFP WRP terrain files. It can read all known OFP WRP file formats so it does not matter if you have done your terrain with WrpEdit or Visitor 2 previously. There are many features (see below) which make it unique util to work with, many things can be done with ease. The user interface is like OFP mission editor so it comes naturally to anyone whos edited any missions before.
