Re: Mod Picker utility
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.

Re: Mod Picker utility
I've been trying to write a mod-selector in delphi and having overcome many problems I have found that I am unable to get SE4 to load any mods I tell it to from the command line.
Does anyone have any idea as to why this happens.?
All I get is SE4.exe appearing in the task list for a few seconds and then disappearing.
It'll load if I leave off the Mod argument but not if it's there (setting it to None doesn't work either)

Re: Mod Picker utility
Incidentally here is a screenshot if anyone is interested
The colours *are* actually the same as used in SE4, but the JPG conVersions seems to have dampened them a tad.

Re: Mod Picker utility
For those interested, here is a modified Version (v1.2) of Quikngruvn's Mod Picker batch file which handles commandline parameters for both the batch file itself and for running SE4.

Re: Mod Picker utility
I downloaded this about 2 weeks ago. The modpicker utility is the next best thing since... SEIV. I have found myself playing more just because of this utility. I also never bothered using more than 1 other mod due to the inconvenience of setting up the path files. Too many mouse clicks.
Now with the changes in 1.2, I am elated. It's gonna be another late night tonight!

Re: Mod Picker utility
You da man, Dubious!
Suddenly I'm reminded of a quote that applies to my programming skills, by Peter Schickele about the apocryphal P.D.Q. Bach:
"His plagiarism was limited only by his faulty technique."
And you are too kind, Doc!
