Space Empires 4 Mod Launcher

[Matryx]

Ok, as soon as I return from work today (about 10 hours from now) I will upload V1.3 which will have support for long descriptions.
As long as you want really

This is a great tool! It has replaced my SE4.exe link on my desktop.

Thanks, Matryx.

P.S.: Quikngruvn, please don't feel sad I'm not using your Modpicker utility (which is great, too) anymore (<--- not being sarcastic, but looking shy).

'Salright, I had a feeling people would go for the new pretty picker instead of my basic little thing....

(Sniff... I need to drown my sorrows.)

Seriously though, it's cool.

Matryx, I will check out your Mod Launcher sometime soon. It may even replace mine on my desktop!

Ponder this: Scientists already knew that matter is 98% empty space. After they figured out the structure of protons, they determined the remaining 2% is mostly made up of... well, nothing. Who says God doesn't have a sense of humor?

Ok here it is V1.3
Now with added support for long descriptions
You can now use more than 6 lines for mod descriptions

Anyway, Quikngruvn, I'd like to credit you with the idea, after all you did pip me to the post as far as getting the first mod-picker out goes

To look forward to in V1.4 (I hope)
- Savegame Selection!
- Savegame Isolation! (Never again will you load a P&N game when you meant a DevNull Game)
[Edit : Not sure if I'll include Savegame Isolation because some people will just want all of their savegames in one area. i.e. not scattered throughout the mod directories]


As usual the download comes in 3 flavours
.zip (179 K)
.rar (167 K)
.ace (143 K)

Enjoy.

I would prefer to save a game under the mod it is for. It gets to confusing when they are all under the same folder.

Dracus : I agree, but unfortunately that means when you set up the game in the first place you have to remember to specify <modname>/Savegame as the save directory.

I will put *support* for savegame isolation into a later Version, but for now I'll just support Generic Savegames.

I already do this as I have 6 to 8 mod's plus the pbw game, plus my development games.
