Launch Base Beta Test

[Marshall]

Major update today.

Version 0.99.115 [2008-06-27]
Fixed corrupted data size readouts if the size was not an integer number of kilobytes.
Fixed bug where tool parameters were not saved to the correct tool.
Syringe is now automatically supported if a mod includes the neccessary DLL and INJ files.
Check For Updates now includes checks for Red Alert 2 and Yuri's Revenge (only if you don't already have 1.006 or 1.001 respectively).
Automatic Update Check now includes check for Launch Base on startup. Note that disabling Automatic Update Check means that you will have to manually check for updates to Launch Base itself.
Rewrite of Update Check/Mod Catalogue facility. Catalogue is now saved locally and updated as required so is much more efficient. New options to control the frequency the catalogue is refreshed and a new button to force a full update.
Removed support for multiple versions of the same plugin - only the latest installed version will be handled.
Removed support for RockPatch.
Removed Broadcast Message.
There is no longer any distinction between Developer Tools and User Tools - these no longer appear on the Tools menu.
When downloading change logs, Launch Base will no longer show the download progress window or play the EVA alert. Such files download too quickly for this to be worth it, however this also means you can no longer cancel large change logs.
New option: 'Automatic Terrain Expansion'. This will automatically activate the TX for mods that allow it.
New Mod Catalogue filter option: 'Installed Mods'. This will show entries from the catalogue even if you already have the latest version of that mod. Can't imagine why a normal user would need this but I found it useful for debugging. Any invalid entries due to a failed update check will never be displayed.
LaunchBase.ini now stores the revision number without leading zeroes.

Version 0.99.103 [2008-06-27]
'rockpatch' category only allows DLL and INJ files.
'rockpatch' category renamed to 'syringe'.
Fixed bug where you could intermittently create an installer when there were still file errors outstanding.
RockPatch options removed (in-line with Launch Base changes).
Added Size column to files list.
Updated help topics.

For now at least, the latest Syringe will simply be included with Launch Base rather than having a separate component that needs to be downloaded.

A new mod has been released (use the update check facility to get it). It is simply pd's Except Checker so that you can use it with Launch Base and see how Syringe is now supported for future mods.

The RA2/YR update check is incomplete at the moment - on startup, if you don't have RA2 1.006 or YR 1.001 then you will get a message saying that the language hasn't been determined and that the update check will assume English language. I haven't figured out how I'm gonna determine this yet - possibly pd's getlang tool although I seem to have lost that and don't remember if it worked on RA2 or YR only.

Please bear in mind that there have been a lot of code changes to LB in this version - I've done a fair amount of testing but can't guarantee no slip ups. Please let me know if you have any problems.
