.Split Format

The file format will change significantly in the next build. This page will be updated when that happens

The sample .split file contained in the repo was made with beta 1.0 (41), and is subject to change prior Splitter 1.0’s release.

Sample File

.split is a file bundle - it's just a folder with “.split” at the end. On a Mac with Splitter installed, it will appear as a single file, and the structure can be browsed by right-clicking in the finder and choosing “Show Package Contents”. In any other case, it will simply appear as a folder.

Structure

The root folder of the .split bundle can contain the following:

• runInfo.json - Contains the metadata and segments of the run
• appearance.json- Configures the appearance for Splitter.
• gameIcon.png- The game’s icon, if it has been set.
• runIcons/x.png - the icons for individual segments, if they have been set (see below)

Run Icons

Within the runIcons directory are .png files for each segment with a corresponding icon. If a segment doesn't have an icon, that index is skipped.

For example: A run has icons set on segments 0, 1, and 3. Segment 2 does not have an icon set. The runIcons folder will be as follows:

• 0.png
• 1.png
• 3.png
