Planned.

EDIT: Just to clarify, I was thinking each package (VPK or GMA) file should gets its own folder, not just the models as indicated in the image.

Example: Two Scout GMA files, scout1.gma and scout2.gma would unpack to:

Actually, I was thinking a folder based on the actual GMA name. For example, if I had stormtroopers in these 2 packages that used same folder/filename structures

star_wars_ea_battlefront_2_-_first_order_stormtrooper_playermodel_pack_v1.3_1232265546.gma
and
star_wars_a_new_hope_(sunthero)_-_imperial_stormtrooper_playermodel_&_npc_795752378.gma

(Flipping authors anf their naming conventions) ...

Crowbar would create 2 folders

One being
star_wars_ea_1232265546
and the other being
star_wars_a_n_795752378

Using a certain number of characters and the GMA file designation "should" make the folder disctinct enough for use.

Edited, let me add a third GMA where there would be a problem though

star_wars_ea_battlefront_2_-_first_order_stormtrooper_playermodel_pack_v1.2_1232265546

This would cause a problem because the gma designations are the same and the prefix is the same.

The 3 folders would end up like this

star_wars_ea_1232265546
star_wars_a_n_795752378
star_wars_ea_1232265546

1 and 3 are different versions of the same model pack, one update the other and that isn't discovered until you hit v1.3 and v1.2 in the GMA filename.

Like I said earlier, flipping author file naming conventions and GMA DUPES.

(so my suggestion would have to be taken to another level of duplicate folder checking (dag it))

Edit 2:

This is why I use
call "%var%" extract -file "%~f1" -out "%~n1"
which equates to
gmad.exe extract -file (filename passed) -out (folder = filename in)

in my Gmad.bat file. this creates individual folder based on the filename passed to gmad for each gma processed. This way there are no duplicate folders created because each filename is distinct (or it wouldn't exist in the multi drop or folder being processed)

Done as of Crowbar 0.61.
