I have been able to open every file attempted with CFHodEd v.4.1.00 yet any attempt to open any HOD file with this (CFHodEd v.4.1.1.0 results in the following error:

Thank you for your time and hard work.

I'm trying to extract the backgrounds from the background_light.hods and running into some problems. (I'm working with the uncompressed old versions from release).

HWRM stores the high-resolution background in this _light.hod file instead of the old-school sphere mesh (which can still be extracted properly in CFHODED). When I look at the texture of these _light.hod files, the whole DDS image has a pink/purple tint to it, and loses much of the background information.

I was hoping you could shed some light on this issue.

It would appear that the same End Of Stream exception that occurs when attempting to open HW:RM files in old CFHodEd versions now also occurs in this one (both prerelase and stable versions on the releases page).
This suggests that Gearbox changed something again.

Given that this is probably the only way to get at the models I would like to request a fix.

Here is the Exception Details:

What am I doing wrong?

Hello, I was wondering, has this tool been updated to open .HOD files from Homeworld Remastered? I'm aware of the fork where you mention it has been semi-updated to handle HWRM's format, but I am having issues where any files I open crash the program.

Can you update CFHodEd to where it can edit .hod files for the Homeworld Remastered 2.0 / 2.1 version?

As per the title, for some reason the 2.0 release bugs out and crashes any time I try to load a strike craft (fighters/corvettes) - and strangely enough, only strike craft. Capital ships, utility vehicles and motherships load just fine, but anything smaller (in this case, the Kushan salvage corvette) gives the following error:

An unhandled exception has occured!

By any chance, does this have anything to do with the fact that Homeworld 2 strike craft are produced and act as squads instead of individual entities, since HW:R is built from the same engine? I think it might be worth looking into, if it turns out CFHodEd just doesn't know how to properly handle that or something.
