Re: TDM-ModPack 3.11
Hi Mephisto,
Thanks for getting back to me so soon. renaming xcopy.exe works, though of course winxp try to restore xcopy.exe as part of their system file protection. I ended up deleting my renamed xcopy as another xcopy.exe already exist by the time installer finished.
One note about the installer, at the moment, the inataller create a program group to put in SE4Launcher.exe. It'd be great if you ask the user whether they want to do that or not (being YES as the default). The reason is that I happened to put the SE4 links on a non-standard program group and has to delete it everytime the installer ends. This is not a big thing. I won't even say it's irritating if I were to run the installer once, but when you've run it several times,... ;-)
I'm not against the installer idea vs Zip file. Either is fine with me as long as it works. It is true that installer would be easier for the newbie though I suspect most of the SE4 player are quite knowledgable abt computer. But hey, I'm not the one who has to answer their questions abt "how to extarct zip files" ;-)
You mentioned that it took you hours to upload the file. I might be wrong here, but I think most of it are because of the pictures. You might want to look into the possibility of using ImageMod (spelling?) like Derek's Gold mod. Of course, this might be confusing for the newbie, so you've to think abt this.
Thanks again once more. Best of luck,
-Joe
