Hi,

I was just wondering how the launcher for release 2 was coming along?

Specifically; is it going to be a straight "swap-out" for the FS2 launcher, or will it be something completely different?

Finally, is it's design finalised, or are you still accepting ideas on this front?

1 - it will be something different - cptwhite and avenger are seeing to its construction.

2 - I'm not sure.

This is completely avenage terratory, but im just informed on what the deal is. basically avenger is making a program that allows you to build custom launchers, maybe the tbp launcher will influence the features of this program, once he has done this nifty little program we will use it to create a launcher between us for the mod

ahem, the launcher for tbp will be a custom one and u will not be able to create it using the software i am developing but the launcher kit i am making for everyone else will have a load more power, it is just that because of the nature of how TBP works theres has to be different , but i am open to ideas we are still throwing ideas back and forth, if u have any ideas then please email me or post here, avenger@themodplace.co.uk

What I was thinking was something similar to the FS2 launcher; this time hovever it'd be in the style of the BabCom interface from the station's consoles.

So you'd have a blue gradient background (IIRC), with a column of buttons on each side of the window, and the TBP logo/name in the centre.

Anyway, that's what I thought would be cool, but then that's just me.
