Roxanne Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Any details available what it is good for or how to use it? When I try to run it, my Avira blocks it and deletes it. When I try to run it without Avira, it tells me I need net framework 3.0 or better. Since I have windows 10, this makes no sense, since it is included already? Quote Link to comment
AL|EN Posted December 14, 2017 Author Share Posted December 14, 2017 (edited) Thanks for feedback, It is really helpful. Virus detection is false positive. It's the same stupid thing as with many others AV's. Application is nothing more than 50 lines of Powershell Windows Forms code. I think that the problem leads in the way how the code is packed into .exe. I see what I can do about it but not now. NET 3.0 requirements, I hopefully fixed it. Please redownload whole repository using new download link: https://github.com/ALIENQuake/EETLauncher/archive/master.zip Usage: It's very simple application which execute baldur.exe from BG2EE directory if EET installation is detected, opens EET readme file, opens webpage with a link to this forum. ( Windows 10 has only 4.0+ enabled by default, when you run application which require NET <4.0, it offers you a option to enable build-in legacy version ) Edited December 14, 2017 by ALIENQuake Quote Link to comment

AL|EN Posted February 20, 2018 Author Share Posted February 20, 2018 1.2.0 - added ability to change EET GUI Quote Link to comment
Roxanne Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 1.2.0 - added ability to change EET GUI I have the following issue - EET_gui mod is installed and in use. - I start your tool and go to Setting - it shows SoD GUI in use and I select change to BG2 - The tool freezes. When I kill it in Taskmanager I can start the game from Baldur.exe and the GUI has been changed to BG2 indeed. - when I try your tool again, it still shows me SoD GUI in use and offers me BG2 for change I re-installed EET_Gui mod to repair.

AL|EN Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 (edited) Launcher is freezing because it execute EET_Gui mod with appropriate commandline switches for installing and uninstalling. If the installation/GUI change was sucesful, the "Current GUI" text will become green. If not, then red. I see what I can do about avoiding application freezing.

I just dd another round of tests with your tool. It works now as described. I have no idea what failed on my earlier attempt. Maybe too many other things were running. Anyway, sorry for the false alert. Quote Link to comment

Hack'n'Slash Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Did you ever get a new logo? Quote Link to comment
AL|EN Posted May 2, 2018 Author Share Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) Unfortunately not. Not an end of the world but I would welcome any decent and similar theme logo Edited May 2, 2018 by ALIENQuake Quote Link to comment
Hack'n'Slash Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 Give a description of what you want it to be and I'll have a play. Just reinstalled Ai and PS. Quote Link to comment
AL|EN Posted May 2, 2018 Author Share Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) The new logo can be identical of the current one with "Enhanced Edition Trilogy" text. Or you own invention with BG1, SoD, BG2, ToB and IWD icons/logos combined. Edited May 2, 2018 by ALIENQuake Quote Link to comment
