Post Mod Project Manager\Editor
I am right now in the making of a pretty basic Project Manager for Cortex Command mod making. What it will do is that it will help keep track of all files related to the mod as well as making creation of Actors\Devices\MOS easier wich will leave you to the more fun parts like spriting and finetuning your code.

Planned Features:
  • Treeview over the Project
  • Template System
  • Code Generation
  • Ability to edit code within the program (Though a editor like Notepad++ will be better)

Features that might not make it: (Due to lazyness)
  • Offset Editor
  • Importation of Allready existing mods
  • Parsing of existing code

What i am making it with:
  • Code::Blocks (C++)
  • wxWidgets

Post your requests here for features to add to this program.

Note: This program will NOT make the mod for YOU. It will just make modding a little less time consuming.

I think the offset editor would be good... More intuitive than the current one please.

Limbpaths and atomgroups are the most annoying thigs of all mods. Same with Electro, I'd dl it just for the offset editor.

instead of dropships it should be craft... also that little picture in ummm... :???: top... bar isn't really necessary.

also how about when you make a new project the name e.g pwnagegrenade.rte appears next to the project icon like:
project (pwnagegrenade.rte)
actor
craft...

I fixed the Boost library thingy some time ago and are now working on how the XML format for project files will look like :). (To load and save projects)

How the Structure will look like for now:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<project>
   <name>Example</name>
   <path>C:\Program\Datarealms\Cortex Command\Example.rte</path>
   <options>
      <autogeneratecode bool=1 />
   </options>
</project>


And i will use TinyXML for parsing it.

Download (2.5 Mb)

The new additions here is that you can load Project files (But not save) and open stuff from the project explorer. :)

What to change to make the Project File work:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<project>
   <name> Can be disregareded</name>
   <path> Set the path to your mod .rte  </path>
   <options></options>
</project>

I have something to add!

I'm pretty busy working on my own super-fun projects, including one for Cortex Command, but if anyone is still interested in making an offsets editor I highly recommend using Image Magick. It's quite easy to learn, very well documented, pretty powerful etc etc. By average CC modder standards, this is like a week-long project, tops.

Edit: ♥♥♥♥, I posted this in the wrong thread.
