You've got some great utils.

The ones I don't like, I don't use! I didn't like Package Manager because I didn't feel like I had enough control, so I just copy all nonduplicate files to the appropriate directories(usually everything but TBL files) and then use a few handy BAT macros to switch between the TBLs and other duplicate files. Simple.

ok, i may have been wrong but when i have downloaded campaigns the only FMI files that i have found have been from twilight and UA there might be more but the majority of the campaigns and missions that i have downloaded do not come with those FMI files that you talk about.

My program is more than that and although it is still underconstruction you may have a look at it at the following address

I have also finished developing another application called renamer that allows you to rename a maximum of 10,000 images in sequence all you have to do is select the folder that the images are in that are not name in sequence add them to the rename list sort them into the order that you want, specify an output directory, choose the pattern in which you want the files to be named, enter the first part of the name and then the extension and send it to work, it then renames all the files into a logical sequence so for example if you have loads of files called shock1a.bmp shock.bmp or any name what so ever my program will rename them for instance SHOCKWAVE0000.BMP SHOCKWAVE0001.BMP SHOCKWAVE0002.BMP and so on, i believe this would be a great tool for modders who which to make animations

so here are the links, the RENAMER program is finished so any problems please tell me about, the campaign program is still under development and if you wish to test it further than this version then please email me a mailto:[email protected] and leave you name and an email address and on saturday i will begin beta testing it!!

now your not only stepping on my util's but your stepping on Max Sterling's utils. he already wrote a sequence renamer.

And if you want to know how to write FMI's I can easily send you the spec, if you want a new campaign supported and don't want to write the FMI yourself, ASK ME

Er, yeah its true I already made a sequence builder... not only can it rename your files in sequence, but it can take a loop of images you made and make repeated loops for your animation... it even can insert a "blink" frame every Nth loop. and it also gives you a visual preview of your loop of images. But use whatever you want...

Regarding the issue of campaigns... I use something ridiculously simple called WinZip

...mmh... not to be anoying, but I don't like this one. I didn't get anything, and there's a number limit I don't like. Anyway, you're talking a bit fast, you all... I know a little much more than you about avenger's prog, and the ani was just an EXEMPLE DAMN!!! Don't come and cry after him cozz I (me, venom) asked him to do this prog to rename files. If you're not happy with it, come and complain to me. Avenger has been kind enough to make me a prog that is easy to use, fast and efficient, and what he gets is insults... damn... oh well...

Seriously, Kazan... why can't someone write their own prog? So what if it does the same exact thing as yours? You know, Monopolies are illegal...

Thankyou for your supprt guys, KAZEN .............................................................. .............................................................. ........................................................ ........SHUT IT

i'm sorry i should not be so mean, but if i want to make a program that does something that is useful for me and is possibly useful for others i want to tell other people and KAZEN your files have to be specially made (ok they are not hard) but some people that have made campaigns and missions do not know about your program, as you can tell the people that posted before you did'nt. What i am trying to make is a program that will work for all campaigns regardless of the fact they have your FMI file, my program reads the fc2 file and gets it's data from that, that way i know that all campaigns will have this thus making my app more usefull. Also my program does not just deal with campaigns, it also deals with missions and also monitors for you running the freespace 2 launcher prompting you if you want to temporarly move the table files while you play a multiplayer. Game so in conclusion your program may be good and i am not saying otherwise but i want to make a program that will be usefull to a wider range of people. If you would like to take this up further take it up on ICQ

Wow... a programmer who can't spell. You need to double-, triple-, quadruple-check your programs a lot of times, don't you?

The Avenger · **Reply #29 on:** June 13, 2001, 03:49:00 pm

What do u mean, what mistakes have i got? can u tell me them and i will change it

Jabu · **Reply #30 on:** June 13, 2001, 04:00:00 pm

1: if you look closer, you might notice you've spelled Kazan's name KAZEN twice.

2. Supprt = support

3. Usefull = useful

And you were mean to Kazan, so I was mean to you.

The Avenger · **Reply #31 on:** June 13, 2001, 04:02:00 pm

look i am trying to make my program and have not got time to check spelling, you know what it means so stop complaining!
