Default Re: POD 2.6 Installer, first pass, need feedback - 24-03-2004

1) I do think we need to call the bot something other then 2.6 to avoid confusion. So PM it is your bot what should it be called?

2) The version I posted had bugs! Check out the new one.
http://austinbots.com/POD26.exe

3) The way it works is like this.
If plugins.in doesn't exists it installs a new one with just the line for pod.
If plugins.ini exists it edits the file to add the line for pod.
If the line for pod already exists it doesn't add a second one (but it will add a blank line because of a limitation of Wise installer as of about 6 years ago!)

A similiar thing happens for liblist.gam
The only difference is I keep a commented out version of running each way, with and without metamod jsut in case someone has trouble, we can tell them to look in liblist.gam and find the lines // and remove the //....

4) Will add icons to readme and to play the game in the next version,
But I have to handle either HL.exe or cstrike in the run command of the short cut.

Let me know if this installer is worth the effort.

PM, after reading your change log I think I need to take a serious look at this bot!
