CPX Mod Manager Lite

CPX Mod Manager lite v2.0 is an extended version of previous releases. The basic operations are the same, but it is now easyer to manage multiple folders. Whitelists can now be added/updated though the program. Selection groups can be saved and loaded. And the program window is now resizeable.

--The Check List--

Its pritty strait forward. The program scans two folders, the mod folder and the backup folder. With a fesh list, checked files are in the mod folder and unchecked files are in the backup folder. Modify the list the way you want then press the submit button. This will move all checked files to the mod folder and unchecked files to the backup folder.

--cfg's / Whitlist--

Each backup folder contains a cpxmm.cfg that the info for that folder. The first line of the cfg is the path to the main folder. The second line is ignored and should remain blank. All the following lines contain file names with file extentions that are whitelisted (one file per line). The main folder path is required, having whitelisted files is not.

--Program File/Folder structure--
In the root CPX Modmanager folder you will have this programs exe file, cpxmm.cfg, fm20.dll, fm20enu.dll, this readme and 2 folders (backup and savedsel). The cpxmm.cfg in this directory contains the name of the default backup folder. The name must corispond with on of the folder names located in the backup folder. The two dll files are only need if you do not already have these installed. The program will install these for you if they are not installed. This readme file is required for the Help->Readme menu function to work.

The savedsel folder contains cfg files that hold saved file selections from the program.

The backup folder contains a folder for each of the main folders you use with this program. Each subfolder contains a folder named 'files_bak', this is where your files are moved to. It also contains a cpxmm.cfg file that holds the path and whitelist info for that main folder.

-- \ End of list--
The '\ End of List' line at the bottom of the list is a dummy line. When you resize the window the bottom line can get cut off. This line was added to offset this bug. This line is ignored and will not be saved to selections or whitelists.
