I'm working on a yet another pack file browser, that will hopefully


allow you to browse and rip .pak files. I'm shooting to display


.bsp maps using immediate mode Direct3D, as well as .mdl's.



The point? To learn about quake internals. Could be a useful


utility when it's done.



What it does at the moment: uses windows 95 common controls to


allow you to browse the pack file and unpack selected/all files,


browse a .bsp in the pack file without extracting, and see the


entities, and a (wrong) list of hulls/verts/etc...



for screen shots and details:
