Title: The Knossos Launcher - some praise :)
Post by: MC_Kejml on December 27, 2018, 11:14:24 am
Hi,

the new Knossos launcher has been a blast for me - thanks of the "Explore" functionality, where I easily download a mod with all its prerequisites. They get sorted into directories, everything. It resolved once and for all my troubles with the constant connecting of right mediavps, the right executables and mod.ini files with the mod that many times prevented me from playing a great campaign or mission.
The easy mod updating is very helpful, just like the whole database of mods -  I thought I played them all (been playing Freespace ever since FS1 retail), but I still keep discovering new ones in the database, thanks to Knossos!

Great work, hands down. This is what made me contribute to the HLP server expenses. I wish I could help with BP3 completion, but as my small RL company have been working on a board game for about 5.5 years, I know it's hard and money many times does not help at all.

You guys are great.  :yes:

I will make sure the Knossos people see this.  On behalf of HLP, thanks for contributing toward the server expenses. :)

It’s posts like these that give me the inspiration/motivation I need to keep working on code contributions to Knossos. They mean a lot and are much appreciated :)

(My work hasn’t yet been in a release but is partially merged and will appear in future releases.)

Sending all the positive mojo to support coders like yourself, ngld and company. Wishing you best of luck with the continued work and can't wait to see the result!

Also seconded. Knossos is just awesome. Each contributor deserves every word of praise said to them!

Absolutely. Knossos is indeed a wonderful thing for the community. :yes: :yes:

Even though MJN is going to hate me for saying that.

Oh yeah, Knossos is the kind of integrated, easy-to-use end user interface HLP needs to keep the engine accessible. It's WAY easier than when I got started!  :D

Absolutely, Knossos makes everything so easy and intuitive. Thank you  :)
