I make a tool that can pack、unpack and view Starbound package file.You can operate pak like a compression software.. Download:https://github.com/nng68/StarPakBrowser
Interesting. Since this is written in Python, does that mean it can support macOS and Linux? I only see win releases and although I have no clue how many Linux/macOS modders there are, it would be nice if those platforms could be supported without too much work. Not too long ago Microsoft introduced ProjFS and I was looking forward to making a provider for pak files. It's specific to Windows 10 but basically allows you to "project" the pak file as if it's a normal folder. Only files accessed (opened, copied) are unpacked by the logic defined in the provider.
That sounds good.I am currently perfecting this app, and now it looks like the interface is messy. I will release a full version in the last two days, after that I will try to compile the linux or macOS version.
wow this thing is amazing, the fact that I don't even need to unpack a whole mod just to look at the file contents makes this awesome, great job!

Thanks for the feedback the error, can you tell me the specific situation when the program has a problem?
After I click Ok to pack the folder. https://i.imgur.com/2PR30vV.png I'll take a guess at there being an improper slash at this file path before asset_packer.exe Code: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Starbound\win32/asset_packer.exe
I just tried it, this problem can occur if the packaged folder name contains spaces. Remove the space in the folder name to be packaged successfully. This problem comes from the packager of starbound itself, and I will think about solving this problem later.
Tried it again with having no spaces in the folder name, got this new error after I deleted everything in the log to have it generate everything in the log to be only that operation.

You may have dragged the folder to the program. Currently, the app does not support dragging the folder directly.
I clicked on the Pack button, navigated to the mod folder, then clicked Select Folder on the mod folder.
From the log, I can only infer that the packager does not have permission to access the file. I will rewrite the packaging function to try to solve these potential problems.
