Trying to update/add to the Item Filter mod

Hello, under the directory \Grim Dawn\resources ext_en\ there’s txt files that contain tag_strings for various UI text (english) and under under \Grim Dawn\settings ext_en\ we can place customized versions of these strings which does modify the game strings (add colors, change names, presentation, etc)

But my problem is that the files under \resources ext_en\ seem extremely outdated… like dev/alpha versions of the game-out-dated. I want change some tagClass##SkillName## for the necro and iquisitor but they are simply nnot represented under any of these files.

Where are the most up date txt files with all the string formatting?

I attempted to find these tag_strings by opening the database in the DBR Editor but the that program doesn’t understand the DB files (.arz) I guess so I tried extracting whatever is in the arz files with the archivetool.exe in the command prompt, and while it runs, all it does is give an error and changes the arz file from X amount of MB’s to 2KB and steam needs to redownload the file (manually validate).

Also tried many many other avenues of attempting to find these simply file_strings but all fails and most of the tools just error out, do nothing, or completely break the client.

At a complete loss of how to get the file contents.

<Grim Dawn directory>/gdx1/resources/text_en/ for AoM content.

You’ll want both because AoM doesn’t overwrite EVERYTHING from the base game, iirc.

Which of the tools extracts the files? I tried using archivetool through the command prompt but it just destroys the file and nothing shows up in destination folder.

I don’t have <Grim Dawn directory>/gdx1/resources/text_en/

I do have <Grim Dawn directory>/gdx1/resources/Text_EN.arc
