Tool/software:
Hi I found this old thread (see related question) that says that executing BTool through mono is not supported anymore.
Maybe it would be a good idea to remove the readme.txt that suggests this is possible from the SDK? Because I certainly went on a wild goose chase trying to make this work...
Also count me as a +1 for having more tools that are not 100% reliant on windows to operate!
