zip/rar file utility...where to find?

Post by unrealshredder »

I've been known to download up to 30 custom maps a day...of course all separate zip/rar files. Is there any utility or some hidden windows/dos feature I can use to 'mass decompress them' :P ??

Not aware of anything that'd do this. It wouldn't be too hard to make something that does this.

However, since archives typically have different directory structures, I'm not sure it would be useful to mass decompress all of them at the same time. You'd end up with a directory mess.

Select them all,

right click, decompress all.

Done. This is on winrar.

I second for that.

Some people don't put stuff into folders, some put /UT2004/folders/, some put /folders/...

If I were you, I'd first extract everything into a temporary folder and then arrange stuff.
