If you are talking about the SH3 Commander program, the answer is not without it being rewritten. I tried it today with SH4 and the program is hard coded to look for SH3.exe program. It cannot be told to find anything else.

Well, that's not entirely true.
Yes it's coded to search a hard coded address of the filemanager.dll for the SH3 folder in the Documents folder.
I've managed to change that (and other things) and it does start up now.
There's still alot of work to see if the whole project is do able yet.
And there's the issue of JScone maybe getting a bit mad at me if I continue.

This is mostly an exercise to understand a few things for me.
It's not a top priority and I'm only doing it for stress relief from the GR2 stuff.
But so far? It all appears promising.

I understand he gave the source code to someone involved in SH4.
But nothing ever became of that.
I do have nearly every version of Delphi handy.
(I'm not great at it but I can work with it)
And I do understand the basic Game file structure for SH3 to SH5.
Maybe I should ask him if he would be willing to allow me to work on the Source?
