I don't know if it's possible, and if anyone has mentioned it.. I think it would be really cool if there was an option for "linking" catalog files with certain language file. The purpose is quite simple. If someone is using a mod (game-mod for example), it would be nice if the programm automatically chooses the right language file to modify the field names..
and just out of curiocity (no pressure or anything ), how long will it take for a new bug-fixed/improved-by-suggestions version to come out??
linking catalog files with language files
There is an hidden thing for that (I thought it was in the Help file but I can't find it again).
You cannot really link a language file and a catalog, but you can make a special shortcut that will open a specified file and use a specified preferences file.
For example, do two shortcuts, with the following commands:
"c:\...\moviecatalog.exe" "c:\...\movies.amc" /prefs "c:\...\moviesprefs.xml"
"c:\...\moviecatalog.exe" "c:\...\games.amc" /prefs "c:\...\gamesprefs.xml"
The shortcut will open AMC with the specified catalog file, and you can select one language file for each one of your shortcuts, since the selected language file will be saved in the specified xml preferences file.
Currently I think that there are no annoying known bugs, so next version will give new features. I started to rewrite the Import in a cleaner way to add new file formats easily, but I do not know when I'll continue that.
