FoxBlitzz said:Ooh, ooh, pick me! I'd love to design a new launcher program!
You know, I actually made one in Multimedia Fusion for my own purposes some time ago, but it's fairly dated and has a few issues (that, and it's made in MMF). Now that I have some knowledge in C++ I could perhaps make something in Qt or wxWidgets.
I've been using the old launcher for all my .wads so far and I haven't really had any obvious problems. =\
I can think of one: It doesn't save your settings.
Maybe it's the Unreal series you're thinking of? As early as the original Unreal Tournament the games had an inbuilt swapping system for Mutators (the Unreal equivalent of Wads, for the un-initiated) using a very similar two column drag-drop interface to what FB has here. Speaking out of personal experience, naturally, I can say it's extremely effective and noob-friendly, and I wouldn't want it any other way. :)PSI Hedgehog Chris said:What the...? Why does that look so familiar?
...Meh, it's probably something else that had nothing to do with a WAD Launcher.

i think if you're willing to do it, then why not ?
especially for future reasons, when more WADs'll be completed and ready for use .
if you're up for it, then i think a lot of players will be grateful :)
its all up to you guys, the Admins and such .

Don't you mean "yerr"?

i think that this one looks really good! there is nothing you could improve. its perfect.
FoxBlitzz said:Making the window vertically resizable will take care of that. I made it that height because I figured it'd allow you to see more WADs at once, but I guess it's too large for some.
