Hey sam! Awesome tool. I was using the unofficial continuation of universal extractor (great tool and even better now that it's been taken over by someone else) or UniExtract and it works fine (cool cause renpy archives is just one of many it can do!), but I like yours because it has the extra options other than the archive extraction.
Here is my problem though.
I don't like carrying around unren.bat lol. I tried placing it in a known %PATH% location, but it fails and that was somewhat expected. I messed around and was able to get about 1/4 of the script working by passing parameters like %CD% but all to no avail. It would be nice if I could just be in the root folder of the renpy game and open up cmd and type unren %CD% (= to unren.bat "whatever\path\im\in\) but that seems to only be able to work if you had anticipated a passed parameter and scripted for it correct? As it currently stands, unren just uses the current directory that the .bat file was started in and goes from there.
Is it possible to do what I'm thinking?

Yes that should be possible, however I'm not really sure of your reasoning behind it. The normal way is not only much more user friendly but should also be faster.
Open up a command prompt, cd to the right directory, type unren and run
vs keeping UnRen in "my documents" (or wherever) and:
Navigate to UnRen.bat, ctrl + c, go to the right directory, ctrl + v, enter
If you wanted to go down this route, I'd suggest creating a new .bat file and adding it to your %PATH%, something like:
Code:
@echo off
copy "C:\UnRen.bat" .
start .\UnRen.bat- Mar 14, 2017

Lol yeah I was just trying to learn more batch scripting and possibly make the script more universal. Following your suggestion is essentially what I didn't want to do in that we would simply be copying the script to the game directory hahaha... Could even write the 2nd batch file to delete the copied original batch file once operations are complete, but this isn't what I was looking for. Thanks for the reply, I guess I'll experiment more with trying to do it the way I was intending and maybe share with you if I find the answer.
To me, one should not have to copy the file to a directory each time it is used, regardless if it's only once. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely appreciate the work =)
I think it's more about the desire to get better and understand the more advanced concepts of batch scripting that it is for functionality.

I keep getting the error "Error: Cannot locate python.exe, unable to continue. Are you sure we're in the game's root directory?"
I've tried pasting the in the /game/ folder, main folder where the .exe is, tried running the game first then running the .bat, no luck ... anyone know how to fix this?

Looks like 0.5 may have had a regression when dealing with brackets in the path.
Whats the full path to the game directory? (eg: C:/Users/Name/Desktop/Something/game)

Hi booom, Yes my script is similar to yours, with a few more features and a bit easier to use.
You can't, at least not yet. For the time being it uses the default renpy key.
