I want to re-release the acclaim archive but update the old graphics files to new standards. Anyone know a program that will batch convert files where they are instead of saving them to a new unrelated folder?
Depends on what graphic files are we talking about; if they are simple images, Photoshop has batch conversion.
ACDSEE will do this also for most formats: just open first image, then double-click on the already opened image (if needed), then select all images, then convert all with tools option.
mogrify -format jpg *.bmp will convert all bmp to jpg in the current folder. It's very fast /efficient, it's also multithreaded! It's part of imagemagik, one of the best image conversion toolkit there is IMO. I use it all the time to go from ps <=> pdf <=> svg <=> png <=> jpg <=> bmp. Find it here for any platform: http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php FG
