SWR Productions Forum _ The Workstation _ Generals Unified Mod Launcher

Posted by: Chappi55 16 Sep 2017, 22:18

I'm working on a mod launcher that pretty much allows you to have many different mods installed at the same time. Basic mechanics are similiar to other mod launchers though this one contains other fancy features.
You can for example freely edit the game options inside the launcher without the need to start the game. You will never need to edit your shortcut launch parameters or screw around with widescreen resolution settings.

Here's a pic of the launcher with rotr selected as a profile.

Ive seen this on the NLS discord and i'll say it looks promising and awesome over there too.

Do you have any idea when you'll be able to release a version to the public because i feel this will be one of the most useful community creations to date.

Hard to tell really mostly due to the fact that I'm trying to make it as generic as possible.
It's not going to be really idiot-proof as it will require some amount of braincells to maintain a proper folder structure in ZH directory.
The fun thing is that it will be easy to add custom mods that the launcher will support - that's my second goal after working out a stable way of managing the biggest mods.

So I can't really say when but I'll let people know when they will be able to test some more things out.

Question, for the SWR mods, will it have a button for SWR.net?

Will it work with Origin tho?

I'm not planning on any special bypasses for Origin. As far as I'm concerned a fixed .exe should do the trick.
