M2TW mod folder installer
It allows you to extract the game's data and (English) text files (included), copies the other required files from your installation, and allows to copy the sounds, videos and loading screens (using CA's unpacker) to a new directory called mymod.
It also generates a mymod.cfg file out of your current medieval2.preference.cfg and creates a mymod.bat to run the mod folder.

Tool: .texture/.dds converter
This tool allows it to convert .texture files that were unpacked with CA's unpacker into the .dds format.
It also works the other way around, but only if the .dds files are in DXT1 or DXT5 format (virtually all files in the MTW2 release use one of these)

Tool: .strings.bin converter
This small tool converts most of the .strings.bin files in data/text that were unpacked from the archives by CA's unpacker tool
