Major Gregg Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 I second that!!! If you haven't loaded CMMOS yet do yourself a favor and try it.It takes an already great pair of games and makes them fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianc Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 Hi Gordon, A question or two if I may (I couldn't find anything written on these topics at the site): I'm currently running V4.00. What updates have been made in V4.01 that would be compelling? Is it worth the upgrade? What's the upgrade procedure from 4.00 to 4.01? can I just install over my 4.00 installation without difficulty? Thanks for any help, ianc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Posted December 10, 2002 Author Share Posted December 10, 2002 ianc, You'll want the new configuration files for some of the new mods (and others that are in the pipeline), the bug fixes and I think that the new help system and rule-set formatting features are worth upgrading for. You should be able to install v4.01 on top of v4.00 without distubring any of your already installed mods and rule-sets. Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Murray Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 Thanks a lot Gordon! Guess you're going out with a bang, eh? I'll get them all as soon as this damn SH II patch comes through ( *&$# I HATE AOL!!!!! ). Everything takes 8 years to download. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeadHunter Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 Excellent news! Thanks to Gordon and all the modders! It's nice to know that I won't need to uninstall 4.0, and I'm really glad to see the Reichstag mod on the list! It looks very nice, but it's just not right for some maps. Now that it's simple to move it in and out, I'll be trying it! [ December 09, 2002, 09:55 PM: Message edited by: HeadHunter ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno Weiss Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 A well deserved thank you Gordon and to all the modders. You make the game even more enjoyable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSpkr Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 Gordon - I am getting error messages and program crashes whenever I try to convert anything to low res. Something to do with line 841 in the executable. I have just sent you a screen shot of the message and a description of what I was doing. Initially, I thought it was just one particular file, but now it seems I cannot convert to low res without crashing. Please fix or do somefink!

Manx Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 Gordon, CMMOS is a great program that just keeps getting better. Thanks for all your efforts! p.s - From the CONFIGURE screen, would it be possible to add some sort of batch processing when adding/removing mods. By this i mean having something like an "ADD ALL" and "REMOVE ALL" button, whereby all the zips in a user selected folder are added/removed in one go? This way we can have different folders containing different setups without having to select each zip individually. Works very nice and quick as it is, but this would be a time saver.

BeauCoupDinkyDau Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 Fantastic Gordon! Top notch stuff as always!!! And thanks to the other modders as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Posted December 10, 2002 Author Share Posted December 10, 2002 You're all welcome. MrSpkr's bug is caused by trying to reduce the little thumbnail vehicle profile images which are odd-sized. I've made the fix and it will be in the next update. Manx, I've already been asked to add a add/remove multiple mods/rule-sets simultaneously feature, but I'm not sure that's exactly what you're asking for. What confuses me about your request is the "we can have different folders containing different setups" statement. The point of CMMOS is that you add the mods once and then apply different options over time. Please elaborate on why you'd want to wipe out all the mods and load a different set.

Pzman Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 Does anyone know how I can delete the _ww for example, (I'm on a Mac; I love the mods but it takes hours to remove that from every bmp.) without having to do it bmp by bmp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manx Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 Gordon, I was just thinking along the lines of making it quicker to add/remove mods whether they are organised into one folder or many. I realise where the user stores the mods on their H/D isn't really a concern of CMMOS in version 4.0+, but i guess many ppl try to organise their mods into different categories (folders) on their H/D, mainly for clarities sake (by country, type, year, mod-maker etc. etc.), rather than lumping them all into one. If i still ain't making sense, just ignore me. It's very late, well early, and i'm tired! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon Posted December 10, 2002 Author Share Posted December 10, 2002 Panzerman, Sorry, I'm not a Mac user, but I was told once that writing an AppleScript to do so would be pretty easy. If you or anyone else figures out how to do so, let me know and I'll try to incorporate it into the mod documentation some how. Manx, Ok, I understand the multi-add/multi-remove concept, and considered adding it as part of the original CMMOS v4.00 development, but was concerned that processing bunches of mods in sequence would be too much. I'll reconsider and examine this issue for the future. WineCape, Looking forward to them. Thanks, Gordon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon Posted December 10, 2002 Author Share Posted December 10, 2002 Hoopenfaust 101, Could you or another Mac user summarize that thread into a single paragraph or so? I'm afraid to do so since I don't have a Mac to compare it to during translation and wouldn't want to mis-translate something. If someone could do so, I'd be more than happy to include that text in the documentation for each CMMOS mod. (at least until the Mac version of CMMOS come out).

KG_Jag Posted December 10, 2002 Share Posted December 10, 2002 Gordon, the link to the new CMBO rule set (v1.03) for "Miscellaneous" seems to be broken.

My mac at work actually doesn't have the script that I used :confused: but I'll do it when I get home at lunch. Might have to e-mail this script out to mac users just in case.
