I voted "combined" but I'm more than happy either way - it's a great tool. :up:

I think the simplicity of JSGME is what makes it so good, so I prefer the seperate install for different games.

I like the idea of combined install.

JScones, I'd go for one install (easy to update/maintain), but with an option to simply use the working directory (via a shortcut) instead of the dir where the exe resides. The same program, same easy interface, started from different shortcuts... So, install JSGME central, but let it use the working directory. All the user has to do is drag a new shortcut from the exe, modify the shortcut to use the specific game dir as the working dir. If this could be an option, next to the default 'install in every game folder' behavior, then :up:.

Disk space is cheap, so I have no problem with separate installations.

Vote for 'Separate' :up:

I vote combined. Combining into one JSGME doesn't have to be complicated, it can still retain some simplicity. For the Command and Conquer game series I've been using a program called TibEd. While not a mod enabler (more of a mod creator) the interface is quite simple when selecting the game you want to work with. It might be worth a look to get an idea for a beta.

As the old saying goes, "If it aint broke...." Separate is fine. Thanks for your great utility! :up:

Separate works fine for me, but I really like skwasjer's idea best.

I voted separate, but mainly because I'm a luddite when it comes to learning programs. In case you don't remember I actually had problems understanding the original JSGME, and posted years ago saying I didn't use it for that reason. And let's not remind me of my huge faux pas over SH3 Commander's 'Update' function!:oops:

I would probably sooner or later learn to love a combined version, but for now I'm thoroughly enjoying it the way it is.

And as for this:
Gee, I'd have to have it installed in roughly 100 games before it equalled the size of SH3 with GWX. I think I can live with that. The only downside for me is having a separate icon on the desktop for each install, and so far I only have it in SH3 and SH4, so it doesn't bother me a bit.:sunny:

Another advantage to seperate installation is that mega-mod builders can pre-bundle it with their mega-mod.

Personally, I don't mind paying 570kb for that extra convenience...

I voted for "combined" but the alternative is still fine for me too.
Thanks anyway JScones. :yeah:

I always subscribe to the K.I.S.S. theory. :D

aka separate. :yep:

:up: my vote goes to seperated version :woot:

Love your programs.:up: I'd keep it separate as it avoids possible confusion over which game has what mod(s).
