Merry Christmas and a Happy New McMMM

[GreenAsJade]

Hi Modders,

A new version of McMMM is available at CMMODS.

The new feature is that McMMM will now let you store your mod files in any folders you like.

Lots of people asked for this, because they like to have their Armour Mods in a different folder to their Infantry Mods etc.

Note that the status is currently beta. This means that I think it works fine, but it hasn't had extensive testing since I made the changes. If you are the kind of person who likes to have their software well-tested before you use it, then hold off for a while & I'll let you know when its definitely stable.

GaJ.

"So, what's this McMMM then?"

McMMM is a tool that makes it easy to work with Combat Mission Mods.

This is what McMMM lets you do:

</font>

• You download a Mod from anywhere and put it in a "Mods" directory... with a couple of clicks McMMM installs it into your Combat Mission installation, and backs up the original BMPs (or WAVs).</font>
• McMMM keeps track of what Mods are installed at any given time.</font>
• If you don't like a Mod, at any time, McMMM can uninstall it again (restoring the original BMP/WAVs in the process), with only a click or two.</font>

That's it.

Oh, it also lets you look at the BMPs in the Mod, and look at the instructions that came with the Mod, and pretty JPEGs in the Mod, without messing around with Zip programs, but that's just an added extra.

McMMM needs to know:

</font>

• where you will be putting the Mods after you download them, and</font>
• where the Combat Mission game files are installed.</font>

If both these are the "normal" place, then McMMM will find them on its own. Otherwise, you need to tell it: a job that is a couple of mouse clicks and you're done.

Then, you simply download Mods at your leisure, load them into McMMM when you are ready, and play around with installing and un-installing them as you like.
