Un-gzipping gzipped files...

[Smackrazor]

Last night, I tried to perfect a batch file which would execute the commands to ungzip every single file from fallout 2. I am using gzip v1.24 and for some reason, it goes ahead and replaces the file it just wrote with a new file. So basically after waiting 45 minutes for it to finish, I only had one un-gzipped file in the directory I was un-gzipping them to.

Now, don't tell me that I didn't specify the right file name bla bla bla, because I did. I spent about 30 minutes in word perfecting macros which would let me do that.

I heard from Rosh that Miroslav has a program which will un-gzip a portion of files from FO2, am I right?

Heya!

if you want to gzip the files because you need it, and is not because you want to find a way to do it.

get UnDat and it will extract ALL the files from any Fallout2 .DAT files, extracting everything into nice subdirectories (\Art, \Proto, \Maps) and ungzipping every gzipped file.

Where you can find it? Uuuhhh.........

Cya!

That's not what I asked...

I used f2re to unDat the DAT. Now I'm trying to make a batch file which I can run at any time which will un-gzip all of the files extracted from the DAT file. The only problem is, gzip replaces every single file it ungzips with the filename after it. For example:

I tell it to unzip these three files:

Art1.frm.gz
Art2.frm.gz
Art3.frm.gz

Then I would set up all of the commands and it would ungzip Art1.frm.gz to Art1.frm.gz

But then, it deletes Art1.frm.gz, and the next file it ungzips does it okay. And so on, buyt there will always ever be one file ungzipped.

Can you help?
