Default How can I organize my pk3 files ? - 10-24-2002, 08:50 AM

I need to catalog all my PK3 files,I have about 50-60 pk3's skins,maps,tools etc...
I just want to know,if there's anything made for that.Something that tells you,how many maps,skins,avatars,sound mod etc..you have D/Led and how many in use.

Thanks

There is no special program for that as far as I know.

I rename mine after they're in the main folder:

User - Map - xxx.pk3
User - Skin - xxx.pk3
User - Hud - xxx.pk3

and so on. It groups them together that way. Also, I think they're all in use once the game starts.

Yep same here. I recommended all mappers and modders to follow that simple syntax but not many do. So you have to take it upon yourself to rename all your files.

Much better in the long run.

Quick question, though. Doesn't renaming the pk3 of a map make it differ from the that on the server? Or is that only determined by something inside the pk3?

correct. It's the name inside that matters. Now I don't know how sv_pure in the new EXP will Handel this.

Only time will tell.

As of right now, as Rude said, there's info within the .PK3 If you change the name of the file, it won't affect wether or not you can use it on another server, even if the names are different. Just make sure that they start with User. Here's how mine looks:

User-Map-DM-XXX.pk3
User-Map-OBJ-XXX.pk3
User-Map-Pack-XXX.pk3
User-Mod-XXX.pk3
User-Skin-XXX.pk3

zzz first. it ensures its loaded last.
telstra didnt actually repack all of the Visiongrafx maps into a single PK3 did they? the people involved over there with this games admin dont actually appear knowledgable enough to be fucking with peoples work like this without cause.

I'll tell ya what I did was I had like alot of wep skins, so I made a new Pk3 file using pakscape, then took all the internals from the other weapons skin pk3's and placed them in my new just made pk3 file....damn that sounds kinda confusin oOo: but it worked. I might try em with maps. Also I haven't tried, but I think if you make a new pk3 and put other pk3's it might work, should try it though.
