Command line packing/unpacking tool for Bloons TD 6 save files.

monke

monke is a command line packing/unpacking tool for Bloons TD 6 save files. It can be used on files such as Profile.Save, identity, player-index-PRODUCTION and anything else with the same NinjaKiwi file encoding. You use this tool at your own risk, as abusing it could cause your NinjaKiwi account to be flagged or banned.

Building

Disclaimer

Building monke from source will require a moderate amount of C++ knowledge. If you're not up to building it from source, you can grab a pre-built binary from the GitHub releases page.

Required Software

To download and build monke you will need to have Git, CMake 3.12 or greater and either one of the MSVC or GCC compilers (Clang is incompatible with my cryptography library choice, much to my dismay).

Cloning the Repository

Clone the repository into your directory of choice using the command below. Do not miss the --recursive flag, it is very important and your build will fail without it!

git clone --recursive https://github.com/codeshaunted/monke

Building the Repository

Change directories into the cloned repository and run the set of commands below.

:: Create the build directory
mkdir build
cd build

:: Run CMake to generate make files
cmake ..

:: Run CMake with build flag to build
cmake --build .

If everything worked properly, you should now have a build folder with a monke executable inside of it. If not, feel free to open an issue on GitHub with a detailed account of your issue and everything that led to it.

Usage

monke is a very simple program with only two commands, unpack and pack.

unpack

The unpack command will unpack a NinjaKiwi encoded file into a new file. It requires that you give it an input file path, an output file path, and the password to unpack the file with. An example of unpack usage is shown below.

:: Unpack a file in the working directory named 'Profile.Save' into a new file named 'Profile.Save.json', using the password '11'
monke unpack Profile.Save Profile.Save.json 11

pack

The pack command will pack a file into a new NinjaKiwi encoded file. It requires that you give it an input file path, an output file path, and the password to pack the file with. An example of pack usage is shown below.

:: Pack a file in the working directory named 'Profile.Save.json' into a new file named 'Profile.Save', using the password '11'
monke pack Profile.Save.json Profile.Save 11

Passwords

To pack or unpack a save file you need a password, the following is a list of passwords corresponding to NinjaKiwi games. In all cases so far, the password corresponds to NinjaKiwi's internal "app ID" for the game.
