UBB.Developers Forums UBB.classic V6 MultiHack Mods [6.0x] MultiHack 1.5.2 Public Released! [Finished ]

Announcing the release of MultiHack 1.5.2!
MultiHack has had some great input from many people, version 1.5 is I hope a vast improvement over the initial release of the program. Below is a list of features/changes from version 1.01. If you have any questions please ask them here in this thread or visit the MultiHack homepage (link in my signature) and ask there. Suggestions and bug reports are always welcome! Most features added have been a direct result of people asking for those features.

A quick rundown on some of the changes in MultiHack 1.5

• The first and foremost thing you will notice is the redesign of the Advanced(aka Hack Central) window. This has been totally redesigned to hopefully better help you create your hacks.
• Support files have been rewritten and are now included within the database. This means that when you import a hack, no files are written anywhere on your system. All files and information(including images, zips, etc... whatever the support file is) is now contained within the database itself. Upon installation the files are written to the output folder in the specified subfolder.
• The database is now compacted upon exit. This may mean a 1-2 second delay, but keeps the DB file size down.
• Modification "instances". You can set this from All-10. What this does is tells MultiHack that you want to modify instant X of the OldData. Selecting "All" will modify all instances of OldData.
• Added install options so that you can do the following:
  Overwrite Source Files - This is obvious, it'll overwrite your "good" files. Some people wanted it... I recommend you do NOT use this and test your hacks first, but hey, I'm all for options...
  Search Output folder first - If you are installing multiple hacks you would want to select this. It will search the output folder first for the needed files. If the files are not there, it will default back to the source folder for the files.
  Delete the Output Folder before installing - Does just what it says and is the normal, default way files are handled by MultiHack.
• Duplicate Mod button. Click it; it makes an exact copy of the modification.
• Each Modification is checked upon saving or loading of the Hack to make sure that the file it is supposed to modify actually exists, and if it does, whether the hack can be applied. This is basically the "Individual Mod Analyzer" cleaned up and made a little bit more user friendly.
• You now also have the ability to sort the mods in the order they were created instead of the default or column sorts.
• Right Click Popups. These have been added to the HackList and Modlist windows, included commands are Import/Export/Install/Uninstall and more for the HackList. For the Modification List it is "Add/Edit/Delete/Analyze" and more. You can now right click the code windows for Cut/Copy/Paste functions as well.
• Removed the "Source File" window from the Hack Central window. This was done to give more room on this window to the OldData and NewData windows. The functions of the SourceFile(aka Text File) window are still accessible from the toolbar. These functions have been cleaned up and enhanced as well.
• Drag/Drop of text is now supported. This means you can drag and drop text from the source file window or any other text editor and drop it into the Hack Central window.
• The Uninstall feature has been removed. This decision was made after a lot of thought about the subject. The reality is that the function will not get used much, and that any code changed by other hacks will invalidate the uninstall, even changing a single character will stop the process. If/When a better method of uninstalling is found/created it will then be implemented. Until then, pay attention to what you are doing and backup, Backup, BACKUP your files!
• .MHX and .MHP files are now associated with MultiHack (Toggled from the Options). This means that double clicking an .MHX or .MHP file will automatically load MultiHack and import the hack you clicked.
• Added clickable links on the About window to the MultiHack homepage and the UBBDev MHK Hack download page.
• Added link from HELP menu to load the MultiHack Documentation.
• MANY other changes/tweaks/mods...
