Helper Application Release - Space Empires V DesignTypes Editor v0.1.8 |
Hey all, I just wanted to release a helper application for SE:V that I created. This program is used to help overcome the lack of an in-game ability to add Design Types to the game (like you could do in SE:IV).
What this program does is allow you to modify the default DesignTypes.txt file and add your own types easily with the text file formatting taken care of (all you have to do is add entries and save). The program will automatically make a backup of the stock (or existing at time of installation) DesignTypes.txt file so you can revert to default types at any time.
Program Name: SE5DTEdit (Space Empires 5 Design Type editor)
Program Version: 0.1.8
License: Freeware
Creator: Charles R King (carlosjuero)
A small helper application to assist in adding Design Type names to Space Empires V; This program is to help overcome the lack of an in game ability to do this.
Usage: Just unzip the file to any directory and run it - it will look for an installation of SE:V and let you add/rename design types. It also backs up the default design types file so you can go back to stock at any time.

Please let me know what you think of the program 
. Also let me know of any bugs you encounter either here on the forums or on my forums at http://charlesrking.net/forums/bugreports
***NOTE***
I have only been able to test this on the SE:V Demo and the SE:V retail CDROM versions - I do not know if it will detect Steam installations; if you have a Steam installation and it doesn't work please let me know and I will figure out a work around.
