The SE4 companion - Why the long wait?.

[Ruatha]

I said it was a rough beta.
Won't have time to fix a new Version until tomorrow, sorry!

Atleast you will get an idea of how it works, and it did work this morning, before I fixed some minor things!!!

Idea: Make the Games at pbw site a HTML link box, so if you click a game you will come to that game at PBW. (DONE)

And remove that Last downloaded box, i doesn't work very well.

This program is great but complicated is there any way for me to set it up for a bunch of savegame directories all at once instead of just the default se4 one.

AWSOME work Ruatha. Very very cool program.

Now I see it.
it goes to fast after it has been compiled.
I must put in some strategig 50 milliseconds pauses.
Took it off-line and will insert half second pauses.

You can choose the "choose game button" and when in the game event page mark it as favorite, then press favorite settings and define an individual path.

Not perfect but better, downloads might work now...
Now I gotta go out.

I was planning on making a set-up wizard to guide you through the various settings.
Se Ya

Maybe add a button to scan for other players, then dialog box for username and password that gets forgotten directly after the scan?

HTML links in the PBW status box has been added, will be in next Version.

one question can any one use this program to access another players PBW games?

I have to say great job .

Also that I have crashed it many times now.

I love how it access PBW - great option.

We'll it is a ROUGH beta afterall

Does it hang when it crashes or does it give any warning?
Is it Version 0,7 or did you download the all new 0.71? (It gives the same Version in-game, I didn't bother to change it as I guess only two people downloaded v0.7 before I took it down.)

I'll make a set-up wizard that explains the different settings further on.

I was thinking of making a "simple or advanced" checkbox on the first page, to hide some options.
But i guess I won't, why make things simple when you can make them so wonderfully complicated??
