[REL] JoneSoft Generic Mod Enabler (JSGME) v2.6.0 now available!

Highbury · 09-03-10, 04:29 PM

Although I never ran into issues with the previous versions (and I use JSGME for EVERY game I mod so much as a texture in), I do really appreciate the new version. For me the drag-and-drop feature, as well as the auto refresh of the mods list are pure gold.

Thank you for the continued development!

With many free apps I'm like, **** it, it's so ****ty I'll just build it myself. No such thing with JSGME.

Hehe, I'm exactly the same. And in a way, that's how JSGME started. I found the mod manager that came with Panzer Elite to be inadequate, so I decided to build my own that could be used not just for PE, but for Flying Corps Gold and EAW; two other games that I was heavily playing at the time.

In fact, my JSGME test environment still consists of FCG mods from 12 years ago!

Never forget the old games

It's part of a deliberate attempt to more tightly integrate JSGME with the Windows Shell to make it all a bit more seamless for the user (after all, JSGME deals with files and folders). Just have to make sure I don't go too far and alienate XP users or slow down performance (for a short while I tested using Shell file operations to copy/move the files around and was amazed at the performance hit. Operations that would ordinarily take 1 second to complete were taking 45...suffice to say I reverted back to my raw core calls and ditched the Shell calls, hence why you don't get warnings when files can't be copied (because they are open or whatever)).

Wow, I think it was that exact ad that prompted me to buy one around the same time.
