chcek out puntloos easy to use tools pack with batch files to auto do the work

http://forums.scummvm.org/viewtopic.php ... t=compress

a quick read of the readme.txt in the tools dir usually explains the majority of the info needed.... broken sword games easy to do in just a few lines of typing as the tool does the most of the work..

I used puntloos batch for curse and it worked perfectly :)

have fun...

if you use the commandline (cmd.exe) you should see an error message telling you why it doesn't work

I think you need to find your self a newer version of lame. Its been discussed in the other "I can't convert/compress my datafiles" topics.

again I wonder why the lame/oggenc/flac executables don't come with the tools package - shouldn't make the download much bigger and saves a lot of headaches

ScummVM Toolbox does come with them, though.

I've already downloaded the ScummVM Toolbox but the program don't have the option to convert Broken sword 1 files only for Broken Sword 2, this suks i wan't to convert it so bad to see if it fits with BS 2 on a 1gb Memory Stick for PSP.
