When path or file names contain spaces, you have to use double quotes:
uz.exe decompress "L:\a revisar y grabar\TODO UT99\uzmedor modificado\AS MAPS UT\AF-DM-Asterous.unr.uz"

Good luck with those SPACE chars in names/folders/everything. SPACE is a character used for separating a command from switches (options) not for common usage... If you insist in using SPACE you'll won't get anywhere.
Right now I was testing decompression (not a common usage for players...). I did not see any problem because I'M NOT USING SPACE in any folder or file name :omfg: .

If any patch contain space (or other special chars) it must be quoted.
Wrong:
uz decompress C:\My aWeSoMe FoLdEr/Map.unr.uz
Right:
uz decompress "C:\My aWeSoMe FoLdEr/Map.unr.uz"

Better not use path with spaces at all.

Is it possible to get a static compiled version of this program for linux?
UZ.cpp:11:18: fatal error: Core.h: No such file or directory

At the moment this utility is only for windows. The source will not compile for Linux.

It works normally

Code: Select all

E:\UZ\UZ.EXE compress E:\Editor\UnrealTournament\Sounds\*.uax
Go to prepare a coffee, until is ready all are compressed and... waiting next move...

Also it works in a batch using a switch %1.

Where %1 is path containing *.ext - ext being any Unreal extension and not only Unreal.

Sample:

Code: Select all

@echo off
IF not exist %1 (
echo You must specify path source for UZ compresion
goto End
)
echo Compressing %1 in UZ format
..\SysUZ\UZ compress %1 newformat buffer=65536
:End
pause
exit
else

Code: Select all

@echo off
IF not exist %1 (
echo You must specify path source for UZ compresion
goto End
)
echo Compressing %1 in UZ format
..\SysUZ\UZ compress %1
:End
pause
exit
Where SysUZ is a folder inside UT and command is launched from System - %1 can be a full path containing files.

Yes and no.
UZ nothing to do with masks and other stuff. It is just works on args as target files.
All other depends from your command interpreter. For example if you run

Code: Select all

uz compress *.unr
in cmd then uz get third param as "*.unr" and try work with it as with exact file name.
So you see this error.
But if your command interpreter expand *.unr to all files in current dir matched this mask, then all work fine, because reall command which get uz look like:

Code: Select all

uz compress map1.unr map2.unr ... mapN.unr
and UZ work on files one by one.
For example this call bash on windows which do this job:

Code: Select all

bash -c './uz.exe compress *.unr'
Of course on plain cmd you need FOR loop as mentioned above.

Ooops... I was in another folder where batch file has used UCC...

But I think I can generate a list with files and pasting compressing command in front of each name... and firing it as BAT.

In other hand... in my case this worked tested

Code: Select all

@Echo off
Echo Compressing Audio folder
FOR %%i IN (..\Sounds\*.uax) DO ..\SysUZ\UZ compress %%i
pause
exit
Using "%%" not "%". Command has been launched from System accessing Sounds folder.

Yep... I'll prepare a folder for UZ files...

Code: Select all

IF not exist %1 (
A hint: if no parameter is given, %1 is NULL and the command interpreter gets the line

Code: Select all

IF not exist (
and throws the error Syntax Error. Just add double quotes around the %1:

Code: Select all

IF not exist "%1" (

I used it without quotes, nothing happened... but I'll follow your advice if it's better.
