VP builder, eh? (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif) So, what's better (or different) with this than Kaz's version? (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)
-
Well, Setekh, guess you will have to download it to see, right? (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

i am not sure of that, but i am making one to do it if people want to use it because of any additional feature it has then please do by all means, i posted this topic for people to test the program, i cant physically test every possible eventuallity, i need people to test it in the real world and tell me what they think of it, and problems they encounter or how to make it better

i taught him how to write it while banging my head because he didn't understand binary file formats when he started

don't make me open up the source to VP Constructor Suite and BIATCH you with that feature because i already have all the major code needed for it written
[edit]in fact.. biatching in progress
[edit again] oh.. now the VPHandler (builder) class supports importing files from other VPs - read via my VPReader (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif) now i just have to add the functionality to the GUI over break, thank you, please drive through

Brrr

grrr, kazan dont steal my ideas

wasn't your idea .. people asked me to do this along time ago and i never got around to it - well since i have all the complicated code done it's just a matter of meshing and gui'ing
meshing's done
-
LOL
In other words now that Avenger said he was going to do it Kazan's got plenty of time to add it also (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)
KIDDING PPL! (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/tongue.gif)
-
no i totally agree with u, because kaz has no competition to do it, there was no need for it to be done, but now that i came on with a competiting app u do it (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

The competition is good for the rest of us though... (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)
-
man this is alot easier to use then that one at descent-manager
and what I mean by that is um... competition is good
-
erm, heres a few bugs thou
- Cant delete a file from the VP
- No help or about
- What does export to VP mean? Is it different then build VP?
- You need to add force-file extensions in the saving
- can you load a VPBU file?
-
A VPBU? wtf is a VPBU?

I have no idea, its in his program, Save to vpbu or something
-
VPBU = VP Builder File, it is like ur VPP (Voltiion Package Project) but as ur extension is used by volition u should change that, incase a dumbass got it confused!
vader thanks for the input, i am working on a second build now

your equivelent of a VP Project file (VPP)
doesn't matter if some dumbbunny confused them - freespace 2 would ignore them
-
VPPs are used by Summoner, yes?
-
VPView associates VPP files as Summoner container files, so it attempts to open them if I double-click on the file through FM/Explorer. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)
-
Make it look like VPViewer and I'll be happy...as of now I find it confusing, since you can't see what folder the files you import are in.
