Mod Picker utility

Does this work? I installed the first Version but I kept getting a fault. I think it's a great idea given the number of good mods available.

What was the fault, ND? My first guess is that you didn't originally install SEIV in the default folder, c:\program files\shrapnel games\malfador machinations\space empires iv (whew!).

Try v1.1-- it doesn't care where you installed SEIV, so long as pickmod.bat and the path*.txt files are in your SEIV folder. (Thanks again to suicide_junkie for showing me the light.)

Wolverine: I didn't know you (or anyone else) had done so. C++ would probably make for a more versatile and elegant program, given my limited (OK, non-existent) knowledge of C++....

It's been a while since I tried it but if I recall it kept trying to put the data directory into the path statement. For example instead of changing the path to read TDM-modpack it put TDM data.
If the new program works I'll try it again.

I have been using this program for several months. I had to redue the file names in his directory but it works well!!

Wait, are you talking about mine or Wolverine's?

I was using Wolverines. Is your different Quikngruvn?

[Quikngruvn]

Yeah, mine's a DOS-based batch file with several renamed path files, one for each mod. It's down in the thread, ModPicker1.1.zip.
