 ::I've been looking around, but can't find the fix I need.  But I'll worry about the tab feature later.  If you have any other ideas or features that can be added or improve AE Tools, please let me know

+:::Finally got a chance to use your latest build of AE Tools, and I have to say, the GUI works well even without tabs. It fits on a 1024x768 screen, so I am happy with it as is. You should be aware of a couple other things, however, which you may or may not care about yet, but which eventually will matter:
+:::# The build is still for PPC.
+:::# There's no info about you in the About box. Come on, don't be shy! :-)
+:::# Other specific comments are below.

-:This is great as-is. If this goes under its own tab, "Installation", it's perfect.

 ::Good point about Extract/Export.  I can change that.

+:::And it's fixed. So thanks. Now, a couple minor points: wherever it says "ONCC", we really mean "ONCC/TRBS", right? Leaving out any mention of TRBS could be confusing. --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 19:32, 3 June 2008 (CEST)

 :::That's fine, don't worry about the backup feature for now. Once you pass on whatever you can do on your end, I might be able to make that feature smarter/more reliable and put it back in. If I can't make it really dependable, I'll just leave it out, though, because it's worse to have an unreliable backup than no backup at all. At least you know where you stand when there's never any backup being made, as opposed to not knowing if the backup worked.

+:::The two pop-up menus that list levels are incongruous. In other words, the top one just has the level ''folder'' names (level1_Final, etc.) and the bottom one just has ''level'' names. One could argue that both menus need both pieces of info for each level (so we don't have to think, "Hmm, what Chapter in Oni is represented by level12_Final?"). Can you make that language consistent in the two pop-up menus? Something like "[Name of level] ([name of level folder])".
+:::Also, Grammar Nazi says: "Select the level you want to install the .oni file." is improper English. There's an "in" missing there, as in "Select the level in which you want to install the .oni file." --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 19:32, 3 June 2008 (CEST)

+Just wanted to say that I like the message center. I thought that using dialog boxes would be better until I saw it in action; now I prefer the message center. It's clean and simple, and you can always look there for the last message from AE Tools. --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 19:32, 3 June 2008 (CEST)
