New version 0.8 BETA out! This should fix all the known bugs, not counting Reynen's problem

[edit Kilavin, try out this version. It should fix the problem you have, if it's related to FLMM. The included battleship mods put the battleship on Planet Manhattan. [/edit

Huh? If you mean, is using mods when connecting to internet servers cheating? If so, then yes; many mods even crash servers!

Is anyone coming up with a transport or a train mod? Because I am no modder but i really would like a transport to use. Ive been using the battleships to xport goods because it holds the most, but MY god is it unmanueverable, almost impossible to go in/out tradelands w/o having to spend 5 minutes lining it up. If anyone is making a transport mod, please tell me. Ill be very grateful.

I love this thing. It's saved me hours of copying files.

The only real problem i find is the GUI. The mod details frame is half as wide as the mod name list. Shouldn't that be the reverse? There are 4 lines between the author name and the mod description, making the description even smaller! The output frame, when it recieves sonmething new, jumps to the beginning of the text, not the end!

And I, for one, would like a big button named Run FL, rather than an option in the file menu.

I hope that when the last little bugs are worked out, our man IGx89 will tweak the GUI a bit...

This is a great program, the only think it needs is an improved interface with some nicer graphics and it will be unbeatable! I would offer to help but I stink with graphics hehe.

It's fine for me though. I don't care what it looks like. I look at two things.

1: Does it work right

2: Is it fast

No sense having something all prettied up if it does nothing but give errors and work slow.

My Motto: First, make it work right, then make it work fast, finally make it look pretty.

People want a program that works right, without errors, goes fast, and looks good. As pointed out many times, people go with what works first.

IG's mod get a 2.5 in my book.

I hope it's not a 2.5 out of 10

A status update on v0.9: I've fancied up the buttons and the listing of mods with a bunch of colorful icons, and am working on some more polishing, like a progress control. If everything goes well, I might make the next version v1.0 non-beta!

No one ever answered my post about a transport/train mod.

Post Thu Apr 03, 2003 12:54 am

As soon as I find one, I'll add it

I've added three more FLMM mod archives to download: a TIE fighter, an Angel fighter, and the Babylon 5 v1.04 server mod!

Anyone know how to change the amount of money new characters start with in multiplayer?

Post Thu Apr 03, 2003 6:33 pm

This thread isn't for questions like that, Kilavin

I've updated the Babylon 5 mod to v1.06, added the Large Train mod (you're welcome, Kilavin ), and added some info about which mods work with the demo.

Post Thu Apr 03, 2003 6:45 pm

LOL IGx89, no that would be 2.5 out of 3 Definetly a good score in my book.

1.0 for no bugs
1.0 for performance
.5 for graphics

If I were to do by tens I would say either 8 or 9.

The train link is for the angel ship. When I click on it, it asks if i want to DL the angel ship mod..

Post Thu Apr 03, 2003 11:11 pm

Doh! Fixed

Thanks so much IGx89, your program is fantastic! When I first saw the thread on making a Battleship buyable I got quite excited... that is until I saw all the editing you had to do lol. Then I found out about your program and its fantastic! So simple to use, works perfectly.

Keep up the good work and adding all these fantastic mods.
