Layonara Loader + GLR

[Stephen_Zuckerman]

This was a PM I sent to Eloyn just moments ago. Any comments?

Alright... I've been working on this for a while, now, and not even my father can come up with anything to help.

I've got a batch file that originally bounced GLR (the Gnomish Log Rotator) off of NWNmain.exe (ran it right after; something like :[Path] :start w/NWNmain.exe :[Path2] :glr.exe was the main bit of code), modified to do it after LayonaraLoader.exe (I altered the filename to make it easier on myself. xD). However, since Layoloader closes before NWN gets the chance to get going, GLR runs before NWN starts.

Now, seeing all the players that use GLR, I thought that if you incorporated a function to run GLR after NWN closes, that that version would be incredibly popular among the players who use GLR. You may want to contact the folks who made it, but there's no copywrite infringement there at all; no more than there'd be in a *.bat. Especially if you provided a link to GLR with the link to the install file for the GLR-launching Layonara Loader.

Also, if there were a way to save the password, that would be another thing to consider for the next version.

There's no rush on this; I've gotten everything settled on my machine so that GLR doesn't take effect until after I enter a description for the file (which I don't do until I've closed NWN), but consider this some user feedback.

I'll also be posting this on the General Discussion board, to gather comments from others... Hope that's no problem.

Cheers,

And one last thing... I've got the working version of LayoLoader (the password works for Central and East, as well as West) on my machine at home; I'll email it to whomever wants it, if L hasn't added it to the Downloads section, yet.

For as long as the download still works, here.

And like I sent to you...  For those who want it I can add the password saver.

On opinions for the GLM, would a check box that will run GLM work I guess?  That way it doesn't interfere with those who don't have it.  Just a thought, and see what the others think about it.

Sounds like a great idea; go to it. Cheers.
