SVGA Layer Extractor

A Python script to extract and export individual layers from .svga animation files.

Requirements

• Python 3.6+
• protobuf library for parsing .proto files.
• Pillow library for image processing.

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/AlirezaF80/SVGA-Layer-Extractor.git
   cd SVGA-Layer-Extractor

2. Install dependencies:

   pip install -r requirements.txt

3. No need to compile the svga.proto file, as the SVGA_pb2.py file is already included.
   However, if you wish to update the .proto file, you will need the protoc compiler:

   • Linux/Mac:

     sudo apt install protobuf-compiler

   • Windows: Download from the official site.

   Then, run:

   protoc --python_out=. svga.proto

Usage

1. Run the script to extract layers:

   python parse_svga.py <input_file.svga>

   Example:

   python parse_svga.py example.svga

2. The extracted layers will be saved in a directory named <input_file>_output under the same directory as the input file.
