Is it possible to release the bundle also as an option so its simple jsgme compatible?
Reason is that i prefer the patch in that state, is that i have made some minor changes to a lot of files and i want to check first what files is gona be overwriten.
Then i have better control what it changes and i can adjust my own configuration better.

I understand your worry... However, our first concern must remain ease of installation by users with... errm... varying levels of user skills shall we say?
Installers are GOLD for "confusion control." |
Yeah i understand that 
Its ok coz i just have to save thos files i have changed , then after the installation i can allways compare. I have to do that anyway no matter whit kind of installation it will be.
Thx for you answer Kpt.Lehman. |
I would recommend one of two solutions:
1. If you use SH3Cmdr, add your changes to Static settings.cfg or the other SH3Cmdr Cfg files - then they get added only when you play and removed straight after.
2. Apply your changes via JSGME so you don't need to do the "file shuffle" every time a GWX patch or hotfix is released.
Personally, I do the former and have never had any probs.
FOR EVERYONE ELSE - THERE WILL NOT BE A JSGME VERSION OF THE JANUARY PATCH. It will be installer only (and pls, stop using the term "auto-installer" - remember the crap last time?
). The installer makes adjustments that are just not possible if installing via JSGME. And as the Kpt said - ease of use for the majority of players is the preference.
