🛠️ Dev Update: Pack Builder, File Importing & FFmpeg Integration (V0.02a coming June 27th)

Here’s a quick update on some core systems in development that will make Cock Hero more customizable, moddable, and community-driven than ever.

🔧 1. Cock Hero Pack Builder (.chpacks)

I’m building a standalone tool that lets anyone create their own Cock Hero content packs by selecting a folder of images or videos and adding a name, preview image, description, and (optionally) an unlock cost or challenge requirement.

These .chpack files will integrate directly into the game’s unlockable gallery/store in future builds. Installing them is easy — just drop the file into the game folder and it’ll be recognized automatically.

This is also how we’ll distribute official content updates going forward. Whether it’s community content or new packs from us, it’ll all use this system for easy delivery and modularity.

📂 2. Loose File Importing

For players who just want to throw in a bunch of personal files without the bells and whistles — we’ve got you too. A separate in-game UI will let you import folders directly and instantly play them without needing to package anything.

⚙️ 3. High-Performance FFmpeg Decoder

Everything is powered by a custom FFmpeg-based media decoder:

• 🏎️ Fast performance with low memory usage

• 🎥 Frame-accurate video decoding

• 🔁 Smooth looping at any beat interval

• 🧠 Broad format support and future-proofing

Supported formats:
MP4, WebM, MOV, GIF, JPG, PNG, WEBP, BMP, TIFF, and more.

🤝 Support for Modders & Creators

We fully support people creating, sharing, or even selling their own .chpacks. Whether you're a player curating a set of loops for friends or a creator releasing custom packs, this system is designed to empower you.

We want to build a game that grows with the community — and supports the folks building alongside us.

Thanks again for your support 💖
More updates soon!
