suggestion: where it says launcher at the top, you should
have it read the setup.ini for gamename= , so people
can add their game name to it."
Great idea. I'll have that included too.
Quote: "Vishnu Packer comes with Xbox control changes and setting changes.
Also Vishnu launcher has an options menu.
This is looking good and gives people more options for there games.
Nice looking ."
S4real, I own both your products, Vishnu Launcher and Vishnu Packer. They are excellent products too.
I'm creating something extremely simple which serves as a configuration tool. Vishnu launcher has way more features regarding customization.
Thanks!

thanks for contibuting. Will it be free or commercial and is it also for commercial use?"
I am going to sell this for $99.
JOKES! It'll be free and for commercial use.
Quote: "From a gamer and developer view. Lose the scroll bars. Make the forms a bit taller. Lose the minimize button and have it auto close. Don't use it as a launcher. Set it as an options thing. In other words It runs on the initial start-up of the game and unless they call it again then the options menu never shows. Use an XML file so people can customize the launcher with the name of their game or whatever they want."
I'll be showing a preview of the updated UI this weekend. Scroll bars are gone already. I totally agree that it should serve just as a configuration tool. So that will rule out any need for adding backgrounds etc.
Quote: "Don't forget to do some standard default presets (low, med, high) and add an option for user created presets.
Functionality is a must, you've got that going. UI is looking good as well but, try some fullscreen variations with backgrounds, music and SFX."
Presets are in the works.
You will see an updated version over the weekend. I would like to keep this as a simple configuration tool. So maybe the title is a bit misleading. I'll play around a little maybe backgrounds, sfx isn't a bad idea.
Quote: "I might suggest a extra tab with Regular controls like: Start game, Visit support website ect. It will feel more like a regular FPS launcer when those things are present."
I do want to keep this as a simple configuration tool for FPSC. Adding "Start Game" and "Visit Support" site would be ideal. I'll include this in the next update over the weekend.
Thanks everyone for the great suggestions! I'm glad that the feedback has been positive so far. I'll be honest, I'm not in an extreme rush to have this tool complete by tomorrow kind of thing. It will probably be done in about a month from now (When I release Robolegs)
PS! I've been doing some concept designs for what I think FPSC Reloaded could look like. That will be posted in the Reloaded forum over the weekend too. Think, FPSC crossed with Unity crossed with Photoshop crossed with awesomeness!
