Exactly what will this thing do for me? Short Version please.
It's basicly a combined modlauncher and PBW scanner, it will downbload new turns for you automaticly, you can set it to scan the PBW server for example every hour.

And then it gots some extra features aswell.

Saying the companion has "some" extra features is like saying Atrocities has released "some" shipsets, or that it's "quite a long way" to Proxima Centauri.

Default Re: Have you tried the SE IV Companion 0.82?

so i downloaded your tool, right now im trying to set it up. Strangely i already downloaded the same turn 3 times but whenever i want to play it, the game loads the old turn. Must be my mistake. Anyways i have a small request: Since im on dial up i would like to see a small picture which shows me the current download status (i.e. turn at 30% downloaded or something)

will post later, given i get the companion to work right

Yes, the download bit.
I'd love to have a progress meter, but to download from PBW I furst must pas the passwords check, and most download routines can't manage PBW download.
This is sofar the best i've found and I still haven't found a way to enable a progress meter.
It freezes during download, the animation effect is casued by a seperate thread that has no contact with the download thread...

Good to hear it works on dial-up, I didn't belive it would work well with dial-up.
Did you get to see why it started old turns instead of the new one and why it downloaded the same three times?

EDIT:Horay: 4 votes!
