We have already more elaborate plans for that. See the configuration thread in this forum section.Only, the data= path specified in the config is still ./data. I think we should use a reasonable default, like:
should go into 0.12.0 too.Also, we don't have icons for the launcher in Windows. It seems that Windows XP doesn't support the .ico I made. It would be nice if someone could fix this. It looks like it should be working with a valid icon, since there's a launcher.rc and an entry for it in launcher.pro.
As discussed above: this is a problem with the file collection component, not the launcher. It does give a warning message when there are no data= entries found, but currently does not check their validity. But maybe you're right, maybe the launcher should handle this.Ace (SWE) wrote:Which is why I said that the launcher should give a warning message or even a chooser where the user can graphically choose the data folder.
The 0.11.1 release is done. We are only waiting for the announcement post. Can't change it any more without delaying it even further. Also, manual setting of the data path was required since the first version and we have it even described in the readme file.Yeah I know but what's the problem with providing just one reasonable default for the 0.11.1 release, as the only thing that happens right now with a badly configured OpenMW is a silently crashing launcher, no error messages or such.
That is one of the thing we will be doing. Please read the thread I mentioned. It is all explained there.For 0.12.0 I suppose we're going to check the registry for the Morrowind install path?
As I wrote before that is not necessary. We have these problems already covered. Or at least we will once the configuration improvements for 0.12.0 are fully implemented.But maybe you're right, maybe the launcher should handle this.
