There is probably more. I been extracting all the models for importing into a map editor..

I install OpenTK and it it fails to build with several errors in the console.

I was sucessfully able to compile the program with the standard install of Microsoft Visual Studio 2016. I used pre-built OpenTK libraries from https://sourceforge.net/projects/opentk/files/opentk/opentk-1.1/stable-5/ You have to open the the ps2ls project in Microsoft Visual Studio 2016. You'll notice three projects, click the arrow next to the project, 'ps2ls'. You'll notice three OpenTK libraries are not available, delete the three OpenTK libraries from the project, you'll re-add them from the folder you downloaded. Right-click on 'References' and click 'Add References...' Click the 'Browse' button and navigate to the OpenTK DLLs that you downloaded, select all three and click the 'Add' button. Make sure they are checkmarked and click 'OK' You'll notice that three OpenTK libraries are now added to the project's references. Also, you have to click 'Properties' and go to 'Build' and check mark 'Allow unsafe code' You can now build the solution, go to the 'Build' tab and click 'Build Solution'.

Now here is my assessment of the program:

1. A warning showed up about GL.Begin. I changed the statement/s to use PrimitiveType instead.
2. I am able to select multiple PACK files and add them, but it is relatively slow, which is normal.
3. The separate window that pops up when adding PACK files does not indicate progress when adding a single file. Also, progress of loading a file should be integrated into the window.
4. The 'Misc' and 'Asset Count' are totally unnecessary. Any information that isn't in the bar below the list of assets from the 'Misc' section should be placed there.
5. All text with file size in KB should have the label, KB. Also, it should be uppercase, not lowercase.
6. Some file types do not have an image or do not have a proper image.
7. Some file types are listed as "Unknown" (GCNK, GCK2, GZNE, DEF, OGG, GR2, MP3, ODD, ADS, THM, TGA, SFK, SFL and PNG) Lots of these are commonly known file types or easily supported file types. I have looked in the Wiki of this repository and some of these file types aren't there.
8. Type should indicate what the file format is defined as, possibly with a hover.
9. Length (kb) should be renamed Size (KB)
10. 'File Count' Maximum feature is useless and should be deprecated.
11. 'Clear Search Text' should be removed. After you type in a search term and want to remove the search term from the search field, you should be able to click the field with your mouse. The text in the text field will be highlighted and you can click the 'Backspace' or 'Delete' key on your keyboard to delete the text.
12. The program should recreate the directory hierarchy when extracting selected PACKs, but it shouldn't recreate the directory hierarchy when extracting individual assets.'
13. Hover for "Add Packs" should be renamed to "Add pack..."; hover for "Extract Selected Pack" should be renamed "Extract pack..."hover for "Extract selected file" should be renamed "Extract asset..."
14. Actor Browser does not have it's own icon and seems to not function at all or not function correctly. I'm not even sure what you can view in the Actor Browser.
15. Model Browser causes "An unhandled exception of type "System.NullReferenceException" occurred in ps2ls.exe" I am not able to view any models that are in the DME format.
16. 'Show Auto LOD Models' should be removed as a button, all compatible models are automatically loaded into the asset list.
17. The 'Model Export' window should be renamed 'Export Model'
18. We should be able to export all models into one file and we should be able to export models individually.
19. We should be able to disable and enable the applied texture with a button.
20. Image Browser is not compatible with texture formats (DDS, TGA) and the image format (PNG)
21. Sound Browser is not compatible with sound format (OGG and MP3)
22. Browsers should be able to view and/or export to a different format for almost every file type that isn't a standard file type.
23. Program should not be marketed as just for Planet Side 2. This program works with almost any PACK file from online games developed by Daybreak Game Company (Sony Online Entertainment).

Note: I used Free Realms PACK files to test, I'm not sure if Planet Side 2 PACK files will give the same results, but most likely, it will.
