RF: Mod And Level Manager

Recently I have been working on a program to manage all your custom ".vpp" files and I have come up with a program called RF:MALM (Mod And Level Manager).

Currently it can launch any of my mods in the "mods" directory, single player and multi player levels.

Eventualy you will be able to open selected ".vpp" files its default program. you will be able to Delete and Back-up files into a new directory called MALM.


If anyone would like to help me test this program please reply to this post.

Can you post a link to the WIP or do you want it to be a closed beta for now?

Hehe.. it works good for me. As it's still developmental, not sure what to comment on. One thing I noticed is that if you have nothing selected, it will still attempt to launch the game.. is this in error?

I Have Added a section to my program which allows users to run "All" the exsisting RF levels. (Glass_House, CTF, DM, Training, "Red Faction Game levels")

I am now Making a Button to load up listed .VPP files in the Default VPP Manager.

Hope to hear from you soon.

I am working on a MOD and am getting sick of having to create shortcuts to it all the time.
