Where do I report bugs or request features?

Message me on Instagram, and and we'll see if it's something that can be fixed or not. This tool does not come with any form of guarantee of support so you will need to be patient.

I recommend that you create copies of the game files, and of any converted models extracted by the tool. There is no guarantee that this tool will work with future updates of Star Stable Online.
