Princed Launcher (WIP)

[Norbert]

My content provider doesn't allow remote access to MySQL.
A workaround could be a PHP script that exports database tables (to .sql, .xml or whatever) after each database update.
I need to make sure my TODO list doesn't grow, so unfortunately I'll remain in pending mode.
If you want an export of the database or if I need to add a PHP script to the website or something, let me know.

It's an early version of the Princed Launcher.

Works under GNU/Linux: the application runs and when I tried running 4D Prince of Persia it launched properly.

• it can launch the wrong EXE file, especially when mod author changed the prince.exe file name (and when using case sensitive file systems when the EXE file is not lowercase)

If you want, I can add a VARCHAR(100) "mod_exe" column to the popot_mods table with the name of the executable.

If you want, I can add a VARCHAR(100) "mod_exe" column to the popot_mods table with the name of the executable.

That would probably be the best way to do this, as now if PRINCE.EXE is absent it launches the first .exe file it finds. I will make a list of executable file names for all mods currently in database and send it by PM.

Okay.
I will also add a VARCHAR(100) "mod_cheat" column to the popot_mods table, for future usage, with the cheat codes.
I'll fill that one myself, after I've received your list of executable filenames.
(I'll use a script that runs diffpop to generate these automatically.)

programmer, why did you remove all your posts from this thread?
Couldn't you've simply added a post that you've decided to drop this project (and remove any download links/attachments if you feel that's necessary)?
Of course, it was your choice; you're free to do with your own posts what you want...
