I wrote it for CS, so the very first time it is run I check the registry for CS and use them. I had to pick only one game directory to look for the first time, so I picked the game I play CS.

But, once you run one time and quit I remember the last directory used and always use that one from then on. Pretty neat feature actually and it took some time to code all that. If it isn't remembering your last directory please send me more information on how you get this to fail. No one else has reported this one.

You are the first person to report this error. I would love to fix it if I can reproduce it here. Can you email me the maps and the exact way to cause it to crash? Thanks!

It simply dont accept that I write/change anything in the right field.
I forgot that by default windows edit controls can only handle 32K of text.
They will still show more then 32K of text, but you will not be able to add text to the window. I upped the size on the edit control to 128K and this helped but I still have people saying some maps still have this problem. So later today I will make it dynamic based on the entity size.

The newer version 1.3 with the larger edit control for entities, was posted to the file base a few days ago. Try it.

Are you saying that once you run it, select some other folder with bps files in it, then exit, the next time you run it, it doesn't start up with the last selected folder? I have never seen this. Pleas email me with exactly what you are dong to get this to happen. I have never seen it.

Not sure what you mean by "when I try to open a BSP file with bsp edit."
You can't! You can only open directories, and you have to open the BSP by selecting a bsp -from the list-

If you are creating a shortcut and putting a bsp file name in as a parameter it will be ignored. There is only one command line parameter and that is -d as described in the docs.

Thanks for the feed back Zacker, exactly what I asked for!
I will fix all bugs if I can get exact directions on how to reproduce them over here.

PS
PM, I published the source since the first version, it's artwork I say ;-)
Two days ago I posted the latest version with two bug fixes to the file base.
