Great Work Azazello!!! This will be very helpful for all of us!!

The link leads not to the "BiG World Project", but instead to the out-of-date "The biggest running Mega-WeiDU Install of all" thread. Please fix that.

[Azazello]

Let me know if the language is a bit stilted. Wanna use popular English, not "news at 11" doublespeak.

Also if descriptions should changed, info added, links corrected, etc.

@Leonardo Watson: Sorry for that, I was using some older notes. Should be corrected now.

Nice work Azazello. By the way, just added in an gui-based auto-installer today for new folks, could you add it in as well? Thanks.

"The most ambiguous project to-date"
My feeling is that you probably mean "ambitious".

Damn! I thought they'd never notice...

Thanks for the catch! Freudian slip, or brain-fart?

Okay. Do you want the current bullet to stay there, or replace it with the auto-installer link?

Also, do you feel the auto-installer is a Beginner tool?

Just updated it to auto-download + auto-installer The current link is fine, you can just change the desc

The SMM package with the goal that the player does not have to do any testing or bugfixing in order to get a MegaInstall up and running. Includes an auto-download & auto-installation process.

Also, do you feel the auto-installer is a Beginner tool?

Actually the auto-installer is a generic toolbox i created. It could be used for other custom installations as well simply by changing some values in the config.xml file. Just that I didn't release documentation on it to confuse pple. So rightfully, its not a beginner tool, rather a time-saving tool.

The SMM package is generally more suitable for pple who just want a standard mega-mod installation, and don't really need to customise their installation.

Azazello I notice that in your topic you still have BWP put in the advanced section and I find that inaccurate. Maybe it was difficult to install in the past but now it's a totally different story and it should be placed in the Beginner or at least Intermediate section. Normally I wouldn't have commented on this since your thread was last updated a long time ago, but since it's in the pinned section it could put newcomers in the BG moding world in a difficult situation, seeing comments that say that it's easy to install but in the pinned topic seeing that it's only for the Mega-Mod heroes.

I agree.

I'll update the post, but first some homework for you (and the BWP team--and, of course, can't forget Jarno!) -- give me all the links the players should now use. If necessary, divide them into Intermediate and Advanced (and Beginner if there are such).

If the overall description needs changing, please advise. (BWP team suggestions take priority over all others for edits)

Please don't hesitate to comment, as the post needs to be kept current.

[dreamer2007]

okay so this is the main thread for the latest version of BWP, version 5.7 http://www.shsforums...showtopic=38606
This is the link to the modlist http://www.kerzenbur...ead.php?t=34931
This is the download link for the BWP manual which has all the instruction a player needs http://www.shsforums...mp;showfile=534

Maybe the separation could go as intermediate or beginner for the standard BWP install, and at advanced the extended and expert install of BWP, if this kind of separation would even be necessary.

For other links I am sure Leomar will provide the most important ones, for me as a player those three links were all I needed to make a successful install

[Azazello]

I'll tag Leomar, just to see if there's anymore edits needed.

[Leomar]

Thanks dreamer2007.

I'm in contact with Azazello and we'll change that with the next BWP release.

Greetings Leomar

[dreamer2007]

Thanks dreamer2007

No problem, Leomar. (hidden bump to remind Azazello about this conversation )

Thanks dreamer2007

No problem, Leomar. (hidden bump to remind Azazello about this conversation )

And you want to remind me.

Thanks again for your interest, but first we want to solve the BWS problem.

Greetings Leomar
