Hey

yesterday (a very boring day ^^) i decided to rewrite my free dll (as you know i lost the source code) and to add some functions.

and now here is it.. my next free dll.. The main feature is the Registry management. You can add/remove keys/values/strings to the registry and much more.

The complete featurelist:
- Create Windows Messageboxes
- Create and Remove directorys
- Get the image size, format and mipleves out of an image, only with a filename ( no need to load them via bmap_Create)
- Get the absolut path of the game exe and the Windows folder.
- Open Internet Explorer OR the default Browser with a specific Internet address.
- Open Files with their default program
- Minimize the acknex window
- Change/get the title of the acknex window
- Delete / copy files
- Display an Open / Save dialog.
- Take screenshots with the ability to save only parts of the Front Buffer in the file
- Download files
- Get/Set file attributes (read-only,hidden etc.)
- List all files / subfolders in a folder (listed in a string)
- Get IP adress

[REGISTRY]

- Create/Remove/Open Keys
- Create/Remove/Receive Values (as string or var.. binary is not possible at the moment)
- List all subkeys, values in a (sub)key.
- Change the "region" (??) the keys are created / opened. (HKEY_CURRENT_USER, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE etc.)


hmm yes thats all Maybe some more features later..
The dll is free to use. Credits would be nice, but aren't necceary.

You use this DLL on your own risk (with the registry instructions you can destroy your windows operating system if you don't use the commands correctly.. -> i recommand to create a backup before you use the registry instructions)
Don't be frightend to use the instructions. If you can edit the registry via "regedit" you can use these instructions ;-)

Finaly the downloadlink

Sorry for my bad english in this post and in the wdl

Have fun with it.

new feature wishes, comments etc. are welcome
greets
Triple-X

Well that must have been one EXTREMELY boring day, Triple-X.

Great stuff. Thank you for the contribution. We should somehow try to ensure you have as many boring days as possible.

It reminded me I have to ask Conitec whether changing the acknex icon in the window title would be ok. I totally forgot about that. Let me know when you have another 'boring day' scheduled.

Note to self : Play with the OTHER goodies.

Keep up the great work.

Leider ist es so das das Engine window nicht aktualisiert wird während eine DLL funktion läuft (damit das nicht so ist, müsste ich einen neuen thread erstellen. Das ist aber sau schwer..--kann ich nicht ). Deshalb auf jeden Fall NUR kleine dateien herunterladen. Oder wenigstens einen Loadscreen bringen.

Falls du mal wieder einen langweiligen Tag hast, kannst du ja mal nen "Easy Shader" basteln, mit Hilfe der Shadergurus vielleicht. Ich stell mir das wie FXComposer bzw Rendermonkey vor auch wenn ich noch nie eines dieser Programm benutzt habe. Also ich stell mir da vor, das man verschiedene Skins laden kann (skins,alphamaps,normalmaps als Beispiel), verschiedene Befehle einstellen und tweaken kann.
Bis ich mal langeweile hab muss schon was dickes passieren... solange ich einen Bleistift und Papier habe oder meinen Laptop mit 3DGS ist mir nie langweilig

@all ChrisB told me a way to create a new thread for the download. At the moment I'm working on the Callback function (to get the progress). I'll upload the result later.

@Ex Citer Naja dafür müsst ich mich mit Shaders auskennen

ich mein ja nur .. nachher will keiner dein plugin benutzen weil man denkt das man seinen pc nachher sprengt oder so

aber könnte man dann nicht auch besonders böse 3dgs programme machen die mal eben die registry plätten ?
