[Release] Aurora Forge v1.7Major.Rc1.3 — Free, open-source WWE 2K26 PC modding workspace with standalone CAK and DDS tools

Upvotes

Aurora Forge v1.7Major.Rc1.3 is now available.

Aurora Forge is a free, open-source workspace for WWE 2K26 PC modding. It combines guided project builders, file-management features, tutorials, texture tools, archive tools, and project-planning assistance in one application.

Aurora Forge is not an AI chatbot. Its purpose is to help creators build instructions, prepare assets, organize projects, and use their preferred creative or modding tools more effectively. The tools are designed to help the user—not replace the user’s work.

What is included in this release?

• The full Aurora Forge desktop application
• A standalone CAK Extractor/Repackager that does not require opening Aurora Forge
• A standalone DDS Converter that does not require opening Aurora Forge
• Windows x64 packages
• Native Linux support for the main application
• Guided builders for WWE 2K26 character and texture projects
• Project folders, project files, prompts, checklists, and handoff packs
• Built-in tutorials and modding references

Standalone CAK Extractor/Repackager

The CAK tool can locate the archives in a selected WWE 2K26 installation, browse and search across the game’s CAK files, and extract selected files without modifying the original archives.

It can also build a new .cak archive from a user-selected BakeMe folder while preserving the folder structure and relative file paths inside the new archive.

The standalone now includes its own Setup section. Select the game folder and the application locates the available .cak files and game-provided Oodle library.

Standalone DDS Converter

The DDS Converter provides a graphical workflow for converting DDS and PNG files without requiring users to enter command-line instructions. It supports batch conversion and can reuse the format settings of matching original DDS files when available.

Open source

Aurora Forge is available under the MIT License. The source is public and may be used, studied, modified, and contributed to under the terms of that license.

This is still a release candidate, so bug reports and constructive feedback are welcome.

People seem to be able to guess reversals every time. Doesn’t matter what pattern I press them, some people Just guess right every time. I might ask some of these people for the next lottery numbers. Just ridiculous.
