I don't know if anyone here is familliar with the workings of Quake III "pak" files, but here is my problem.

These "pak" files are like zip files with no compression. It's a matter of fact, you can edit the contents of a pak file using Winzip. I want my program to be able to extract data from these types of archives, not to a folder, but simply to my program. For example: There is a graphic in A.pak called 1.bmp. I want to display 1.bmp in a picturebox without creating an actual file "1.bmp". Like I said before, there is no (de)compression routine needed. Does this make any sense to anyone? Any help would be great!
