Help with batch files

from Sins Forums

Hi. I have converted the entity files for Rebellion and would like to make a portable copy of the reference files. The problem is that my smartphone refuses to recognize the .entity files as text files, and so it won't display properly.

My question is, how would I go about making a batch file to rename all of the files from blahblah.entity to blahblah.txt, so that I may make a workable portable copy of the reference files? I am not good at DOS commands at all, so detailed would be better than vague. Thanks in advance.

Open notepad and copy this line:

ren *.entity *.txt

Go to "save as", and name the file something like "rename.bat" (the .bat part is very important)...

Now you have your batch file...put it in the same folder as all your entity files, then double click to run it...

Thanks. I am generally ok with code but DOS commands read like greek to me. O:)
