@karajorma: I agree completely with what mjn said. We made it possible to skip the FS2 installation since we wanted to avoid those issues. I guess the wording wasn't the best.
@mjn: I think the screenshots in the second post here are still mostly accurate. Since this would be a purely cosmetic change (we already have the skip button) changing the template alone should be enough.
@wesp5: That's planned. I want to implement a filtering system which allows you to hide certain stuff like engines (FSO), FS2 mods, etc. If retail isn't installed, all FS2 mods will be hidden by default but can be made visible by enabling them in the filter menu.
Unfortunately, that's going to take a while since I have to solve a few other issues first. Just know that it's on my TODO list.
There's already a link to Knossos in the navbar at the top of the page. More links never hurt, I guess.
EDIT:
Furthermore TBP only appeared after refreshing the mod list, why is that?
That might be due to the fact that TBP is still private. That won't happen once it's released.
And I recommend to list the mods according to their full names and not leaving "the" out when sorting!
Argh, really? We already had that discussion. Ignoring articles like the for sorting is common practice (take a look at Steam if you want a related example) and the whole thing was even requested by others a while back.
I'm not going to make this a setting that people can turn on and off. We have a search goddamnit! I somehow get the feeling that noone's using that.
