[Tutorial]How To Extract Multiple PKG With One Click

Ok, I know that at this time this thing is heavily searched, mostly by noobs (like me). So I found here in PSX-PLACE, this tool called PS3 PKG Ripper (by @Rudi Rastelli). This tool is super easy to operate, but don't have a fast way to extract multiple PKG, what was sad.

BUT... the creator was so mercifull that provided a way to choose the output. With this in mind, I created a batch file that reads all PKG from folder and extract (merging) them.

Instructions
1. Download the work folder HERE;
2. Unzip it;
3. Put your PKG files into PKG folder;
4. Execute RIPThemAll.bat;

5. Get your extracted content in Output folder.

I know, this is simple, and anyone could do it, but nobody did before, so I decided to post here. Hope that next versions of original one have this simple task on GUI, but this depends on creator.

If you missed HERE IT IS THE DOWNLOAD LINK
. ;)
 
Nice tutorial :) Although I find it easier to select the pkgs, right click and select "PKG Tools > Extract to current path..." ;)

I tried to find, but only got your PS3 Tools, that have over 50 tools - Conversion Tools > PKG Viewer worked, but not in this way - and I think that its not it, am I right?

The tutorial is fine and the method is valid... I only wanted to point another method that may result easier in some cases.

For instance:
Windows 7-10 limit the right-click to only 15 selected items. If the user wants to use the right-click for more than 15 selected items, it is required to apply the patch found in: .\ps3tools\tools\registry patches\Fix_Context_Menu_Limited_to_15_items_in_Windows_7.reg

Or use your method, or extract in groups of 15 or less files.

Hello everyone, first post ever in a forum lol.

First of all, thanks for the nice tool, i was wondering to make my own but I found yours.

Uhm, I fixed the .bat, I think it just needed some maintenance.
Everything I did was downloading another PKG Ripper (PS3_PKG_Ripper_V1.1, idk why but the one in your distro didnt work for me) and modifying the .bat file to let it make a unique folder for any single pkg in Output (i just put /%%I/PS3_GAME at the end of dest. folder to give it everytime the name of the pkg extracted and be able to be recognized after from PS3 ISO TOOL)

Hope it will be helpful for someone, it saved me a lot of time!


@echo off
for %%I in (./PKG/*.pkg) do (
echo | PS3P_PKG_Ripper.exe -o .\Output/%%I/PS3_GAME "./PKG/%%I"
)
pause
