Would it be possible to update the documentation and/or source code of what's needed in order to get the parser to run correctly?

When I pull code from the branch and execute run.py, the parser finishes parsing skills and affixes correctly, but as soon as it attempts to parse "weapons, jewelry and armor", I get repeated TextureViewer.exe crashes, even though the Texture Viewer application itself seems to work fine if I try to extract textures manually.

I've checked the Windows Logs to see whether anything useful is logged in the system event logs for the TextureViewer crashes, though the logs don't seem very useful - happy to post samples if you think that will help.

Additionally, I'm also getting errors when trying to parse just "skills", which look like they're happening because I have incompatible versions of some core libraries installed. Any documentation of which versions of the libraries are being used here, or instructions on getting this to run from a clean Python install would be helpful.

run.py -c skills Determining what files are required... Parsing skills [####################] DONE Writing output to files...

Absolutely, this code base has been through a few iterations and most of it was in the "as long as the output is correct - whatever" mentality.

I know I ran into some issues a little while ago when Windows 10 installed a service pack, apparently the old files (TextureViewer included) relies on some ancient DLL that is no longer available by default.

I'll get to documentation after I finally finish up this current milestone. Thanks for the report.
