Sorry for posting this on the wrong board before. I'll try again.


I just downloaded the acm converter and it worked out great. Now I want to go further. I would like to see the images and other sounds in the game. I looked in my Fallout 2 folder and I noticed that there is nothing in the critters and items folder. Where are all the images and other sound files? What type of files are they? And also, what kind of files are the dat files?
 
You can easily navigate through the DAT files using DatMan, you can find it following the link in my signature.

Everything you want is in the DAT files. In addition, you can download all the docs you need to know about the kind of files contained in the DATs.

Are you using real Dos or the one in Windows? Because you need to run it from the one in Windows. If you are and that's not what's wrong then this is what you should type for the program:

c:\fallout 2\frm2bmp\frm2bmp c:\fallout 2\undat\art\cartrunk.frm

For example.

Critter.dat holds all the information for the people and animals.
Master.dat holds all the sounds, splash screens pictures, menus and misc data.
 
I don't see how this is relavent, he has already extracted the files he needs and is just having problems with Dos.
