Introduction
First off, a little information I've gathered about Nekopara. Nekopara is a visual novel build using KiriKiri Z and the KAG (KiriKiri Adventure Game System) framework. KiriKiri Z is a fork of KiriKiri 2, a Japanese scripting engine. Nekopara uses Emote, a KiriKiri plugin, to animate their characters.
Tools
KrkrExtract:
Link: https://github.com/xmoeproject/KrkrExtract
Description: A tool that packs and unpacks KiriKiri 2 and KiriKiri Z xp3 archives. It also contains other useful tools for handling KiriKiri files, such as unpacking Emote psb files.

WARNING: Many antivirus programs have flagged this tool as malware.[www.virustotal.com] I've found that the tool works fine and have yet to see it act maliciously. I'm unsure why it's recognized as malware. According to the author,[github.com] the combination of hooking, process spawning, and APIs it uses can be mistaken for malware. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Alpha Movie Encoder:
Link: http://kaede-software.com/krlm/plugin/alphamovie.zip
Description: A tool to encode AVI or PNG folders into KiriKiri AMV files. (Please note that KiriKiri use it's own unique AMV format, and is incompatible with traditional AMV files.)

Alpha Movie Decoder:
Link: https://github.com/xmoeproject/AlphaMovieDecoder
Description: This tool is designed to read KiriKiri AMV files and dump their contents in a folder as PNGs. (Please note that KiriKiri use it's own unique AMV format, and is incompatible with traditional AMV files.)


PS: If there's anything I missed or any incorrect information, PM me.
I will add more tools when I find them. Happy modding everyone!

I got an error message while trying to drag the game into KrkrExtract.exe it says "Sorry krkrzExtract only supports krkrz engine" but the game I'm trying to extract from was made in that engine. Any way to fix that?

i noticed that the problem isnt EXTRACTING the files but mainly trying to put them back, on every version of Krkrextract if i try extract data.xp3 it goes completely fine and i can edit the scn files and everything but when i try to unextract it in order to, youknow, edit the base files, it either exports just the base directory with just total 2KB data or just says "lol i dont know your module" and its infuriating

This was very helpful, especially the AlphaMovieDecoder tool, however it only seems to extract PNGs, aren't these supposed to contain audio as well?
