I would like to compress most of the .ace files I have to reduce disk space usage and was going to use acecomp.exe to accomplish this (I have tried RouteRiter but have not been able to get it to setup properly - another post). My typical file structure is:
Boxcars 40ft
---Car#1
---Car#2
--- etc.Each car is in a folder under the Boxcar 40ft folder. Can someone help to explain how to create a batch file that will allow me to run acecomp.exe from the Boxcar 40ft folder and access each of the sub-folders. I have run it for all .ace files within the same folder, but can not get the sub-folders to be recognized. Thanks.
