::::On Ob. 2: Making an installer for AE and other mods isn't that big of a deal. I can even make it download from the web by itself. Unfortunately, Onisplit can take a while to unpack\repack dat\raw\sep files. So while it can't really be done "on the fly", a mod manager is a relatively easy task to do. I would offer to do it myself, but I still haven't bothered to finish my last GUI project. | ::::On Ob. 2: Making an installer for AE and other mods isn't that big of a deal.

:::::I made sure to say "I don't say that to put pressure on anyone who was going to do this task" because I knew you might read this and feel more stressed. Gumby, I know what it's like to have poor working conditions when trying to work on a project (in fact, I'm only just now getting to have decent work conditions myself). I don't want you to lose the fun of doing Oni stuff by pushing yourself too hard or feeling nagged, so don't let my words influence you in any way. Also, I think you should be able to rely on others to help with the Windows programming; there ought to be a couple community members, at least, who can pitch in, assuming they have the time. | |||
:::::The reason I said what I said was to reassure geyser (and myself!) that things would come together if we provided the framework for modders, but no one is imposing any do-or-die deadline on us like we're in a professional job, so don't sweat it. | |||
:::::Finally, I just want to say that writing the Mod Manager would first require a group brainstorm as to what features a mod package would need. That was the purpose of my afore-mentioned thread. But all in good time, all in good time. | |||
