BSA Commander Version 0.98.2 Work with oblivion archive files (.bsa) with friendly interface. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (sorry for my bad english) With BSA Commander you can: - view content of .bsa files; - get detailed info about archive and save it to file; - unpack files from archive (all files or any of them); - register archive files for game; - create new .bsa archives; - you may associate BSA Commander to .bsa files - BSA commander may work as command line utility PS: I don't have complete info about Archive Flags and Files Flags in .bsa header. You need enter their values manually. If you create compressed archive, it force to setting bit 3 in Archive Flags. [0.96] FIX: individual compression file bug. [0.97] FIX: files and dirs order ADD: flags wizards [0.98] ADD: command line mode [0.98.2] ADD: sort list of files in various modes FIX: updated version of ZLIB - solve some troubles Usage BSA Commander in command line mode: >bsacmd [cmd] [params...] where commands is: -? or -help show this text -pack "SourceDir" "OutputFileName" [other_params...] pack files from source dir to output bsa archive additional params: -r=0 - recursive subdirs (default) -r=1 - not recursive subdirs -l=0 - without compression (default) -l=1 - default compression level -l=2 - fastest compression level -l=3 - max compression level -af=FFFFFF - hex value of archive flags -ff=FFFFFF - hex value of files flags -unpack "SourceFileName" "OutputDir" unpack files from source bsa archive to output dir -list "SourceFileName" ["OutputFileName"] list files from source bsa archive to output log file if output file not specified it will be created in same folder as src file for example: >bsacmd -help >bsacmd -list "C:\Program Files\Oblivion\Data\Oblivion - Misc.bsa" "C:\misc.log" >bsacmd -pack "C:\MyMod\" "C:\BSA\MyMod.bsa" -r=0 -l=3 -af=707 -ff=1A4 >bsacmd -unpack "C:\BSA\MyMod.bsa" "C:\temp\" Attention: New archives must be registered in oblivion.ini BEFORE standard archives. Notes: 1. Describe full quality path for input and output files and folders. Use "..." buttons to browse your HDD. For example "C:\temp\mymod.bsa" instead of "mymod.bsa". Otherwise you'll get error message "Incorrect params". 2. Use flags wizards to detect correct flags value. Use "?" buttons to invoke it. 3. Retexture task possible require changing file "ArchiveInvalidation.txt" 4. Check textures in your .nif files. There is difference in slashes "\" and "/". See documentation in your nif tool.
