New modding tool (replaces ucc make!!!)

Havent looked at yours, but A while back, one of the utron guys sent me his bat, and I have used a tweeked verson of that.

I make a copy of the unrealtournament.ini with the editpackages=whatever

Copy ucc.log ucc-back.log
Copy C4.u C4-BackUp.u
Del C4.u
Copy UnrealTournament.ini Backup-UnrealTournament.ini
Del UnrealTournament.ini
Copy C4UTInt.ini UnrealTournament.ini
Ucc Make
Pause
Del UnrealTournament.ini
Copy Backup-UnrealTournament.ini UnrealTournament.ini

Works quite well for me, I made a seperate one for each package Im working on

I also have one that just uccmake, and pause

For me it is not really usefull, cause when I was using uccmake I just had one DOS-box open permanently for compiling. In the shortcut for the dosbox you can enter the working directory and that is the directory where the DOS-box will be opened. After the first compile all you have to do is press arrow-up or F3 to retrieve the previous command and press ENTER.

Now I am using VUC++ that does all the stuff needed to complile for me. It deletes the .u files that need to be rebuild and then it starts ucc. All by just pressing F7 + Enter.

So this isn't a timesaver for me, but for others it might be.

I do that same one DOS box thing too.

i did the same thing as you postal, but i used a wildcard in there so i could use the same one for every package need to compile made life alot easier

Personally, I use a REXX script that I call from UltraEdit's "User Tools" menu. It identifies the package the currently active file is in and deletes it before calling UCC -make. The entire rebuilding process is done with a single click of the mouse button, and I get error messages in UEd's output box which I can double-click too... It should work with most text-editors that can send external commands.

If you want to get it to work, you'll need a REXX interpreter installed. Regina REXX is freeware and less than a meg's worth of download from http://www.lightlink.com/hessling/.
