::::::::::"Smart-ass" - it takes one to know one, buster. As for the name of the new page, spaces are your friends. I'm afraid that whenever I'm ready to "express what I want to see", I'll be better off just sitting down and coding and testing it, because as long as you're doing pure theory you run the risk of overlooking big-time practical issues (and that ''even if'' you're a fluent modder ^_^ ). After a quick look, your stuff looks overly complicated right now, as in "virtually impossible to get right". I think that you don't have to patronize modders (they should be encouraged to thoroughly test their stuff anyway), but if you do, you should disallow "code" completely, leaving the modders with nothing but a do-no-harm metafile and a bunch of resources. Oh, and don't forget about deltas or you'll run into legal issues pretty soon. --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 18:53, 13 August 2008 (CEST) | ::::::::::"Smart-ass" - it takes one to know one, buster.

:::::::::::Not that I would promise to make such a Mod Manager until I complete\know I have time to complete the GUI, but a few questions... | |||
:::::::::::1. Are delta patches applied to the .oni files or the .dat files? | |||
:::::::::::2. Would it be preferrable for the manager to read from some sort of a configuration script to see what mods are installed? | |||
:::::::::::3. I forgot, but I'll have more | |||
:::::::::::I really hate when I don't have the time to properly make something. I have ideas in my head of how to do this sort of stuff, but I know it would never get done. [[User:Gumby|Gumby]] 04:16, 14 August 2008 (CEST) | |||
