cs-inspect-serializer v1.0.22

Serialize Item Preview Data

!PLANS TO ADD A DESERIALIZE FUNCTION ARE IN PROGRESS, IF YOU ALREADY HAVE SOME INFOMATION FEEL FREE TO SHARE

Overview

This utility script converts a CEconItemPreviewDataBlock protobuf from CS:GO or CS2 into a serialized string. The resulting string can then be used in:

• Console commands:
  csgo_econ_action_preview 001807202C28F6FFFFFF0F3009388EC491DF03409505480050A4037008420FC456

Installation

npm install cs-inspect-serializer

Example use

import InspectSerializer from "cs-inspect-serializer"

const proto = await InspectSerializer.serialize({
  rarity:-10,
  defindex: 7,
  paintindex: 44,
  quality: 9,
  paintwear: 0.00696969696969,
  paintseed: 661,
  killeaterscoretype: 0,
  killeatervalue: 420,
  origin: 8,
});

console.log("csgo_econ_action_preview", proto);

// Generates a Stattrak ak-47 case hardened 661

Notes

• The serialization works as expected, there may be room for optimization in how wiretypes are handled. However im not great with protobufs. For now, the implementation is stable and unlikely to change.

• The quality field controls whether StatTrak appears in the item name. Ensure you set quality to 9 (Strange) to see the StatTrak name in addition to the counter.
