GFCScape not doing anything Created 20 years ago2004-08-28 11:21:53 UTC by madmeater

okay i have GFCScape up and running and i have accessed halflife.gfc and i can see all of the game files and what-not, but when i right click a folder (foe example Valve) it opens an extract window with "extract gfc item", Make new folder, ok and cancel buttons. but now what? make new folder does nothing, cancel and ok, well, they just close the window. what do i need to do 1st? im trying to make hammer work for steam but am failing

Uh, well, it's quite simple. You select the folder to extract to, it extracts it.

If it isn't doing so, perhaps it is incapable of extracting entire directories. This isn't necessary anyway, you only need the WADs.

Put the WADs on the same drive as Hammer and your compile tools (which should be Zoner's from the links page or your maps will all rot and die horribly). Do not extract resources from the GCF into your Steam directories.
