This it a great tool that is a very good replacement tool for winRFA . You can download it here. http://code.google.com/p/bga/downloads/det...mp;can=2&q= but always check here http://code.google.com/p/bga/ to find the latest version and information on this great tool. He is adding new features all the time so check often and give him thanks, suggest a feature, report a bug, or if you can help him with a feature in development for this awesome tool ether go on the site or over here http://bfmods.com/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=114 to let him know. Thanks enjoy the tool I know I do. This description is directly from the website. BGA is a set of tools to help modders of Battlefield 1942 and Battlefield Vietnam manipulating their files. These tools are commonly used to extract/import data from/into rfa (battlefield archive file), quickly searching for a file in an archive, previewing common files like images, scripts, models, heightmaps. Warning: RFA manipulation code is still beta; you should make a copy of your archives before saving Feature list¶ · Param read support (allow opening directly a RFA archive from the shell) · Recent opened/saved file list · Real compression support · Import any files into RFA archive · Import and compress any files into RFA archive · Export any files from RFA archive · Export and decompress any files from RFA archive · Direct edit of any files without having to extract them manually · Batch import/export · Drag&drop support · Quick save operation even with compressed data · Defrag operation (due to quick save) · Search bar to easily find a file/folder · Built-in Standardmesh (.sm) model preview · Built-in Heightmap (.raw) + Terrain (.con) preview Here is a screen shot of a couple of the features.

I wouldn't mind talking to the coder.
I know how to read and write to uncompressed rfa files, but never saw the code that creates or reads from the the compressed ones. I figured how to use the game engine to create compressed rfa's . Not the same. I'm a Linux freak and did all my bf42 coding from there. These days, cross platform is the rule. Even wrote a couple tools myself. There were so many unknowns back when it first came out. --------------------  |
