Dwillisster Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 IM not a newbie and i have decompress a file before. But for some reason i cant get the datafile to uncompress. I put the ea zip , and dfutility in the mvp data folder but it just refuse to uncompress. Can someone help me out here?. To me it is a bit easier after creating two .bat files. If someone wants EAZip, you can download it here @ nba-live.com. So here is how I use it, if someone feels the need: 1. Put EAzip in you MVP Baseball 2005Data folder, where datafile.txt is. 2.1. Open notepad, paste the following line into the text file Code:: eazip -c datafile.txt and save it as compress.bat 2.2. Make a new file and paste the following line into the text file as in 2.1. Code:: eazip -u datafile.txt and save it as decompress.bat Now you have two .bat executables, the compress and decompress utilities. What these two do, is the decompress one decompresses the datafile.txt, so you can edit and save it in a text editor like notepad. The compress executable compresses the datafile into the non-editable format MVP Baseball needs it to be in oreder for the game to work. 3. Run decompress.bat (remember to backup your datafile.txt first!) 4. Open datafile.txt with a text editor. Save your changes. 5. Run decompress.bat. Your changes should be saved in the datafile and ready to be tested.
