Use r"..." strings in template file to make it easier to copy/paste paths from windows clipboard.
Changed organizer.pro to not produce strange messages if you opened it because it couldn't find a .hg directory
Appears to be a new bug in qt or maybe incompatibility with Windows 10: All Progress dialogs were made visibly automatically a few seconds after application startup. This was "fixed" by creating the dialog dynamically on demand
Apart from an off by one in the popup list which had crept back in, reworked
the underlying code even more, which now seems to get the list behaving in
a predictable way.
Certainly fixes the issue where the 'toolbar' entry doesn't lose the cross.
One of the 'find' methods ignored case but none of the others did, so I've
made it not ignore case either.
Also made the code to get the desktop/startmenu paths use a more up-to-date API
(though they were almost certainly false positives)
- there is now a 50ms timeout on logging messages
- bugfix: leaked handles after directory searches
Changed pynedit.pro to fetch from 'standard' install location
Changed saveas code to use organizer report rather than uibase - this way it's
not dependant on the vagaries of the include path, and works the same as the
rest of the organiser directory
that appears to remove another search folder AND the configured seach folders seem
to be inherited by processes started from MO (both confirmed only in windows 8.1)
- moved more functionality to game-plugins
- further decoupled management functionality from the UI
- created another "tutorial" which is only a single page with relevant parts of
the ui highlighted with info as tooltips
- addded a workaround for cases where, after a MO update, the stored modlist layout has no size for new columns
- using a webview again for the nexus view of the modinfo dialog
- better error message when bsa parsing fails
- slightly better support for font colors in bbcode converter
- configurator now also uses pyqt5
- bugfix: bsa hashing function converted backslashes to slashes instead of the other way around. hash calculation is still often wrong on folder names...
- process blacklist is now taken from a file if there is one, not hardcoded
- removed workaround for the papyrus compiler
- updated loot client to work with the actual api
- loot client now links with loot32.dll at runtime
- loot client now produces its output in a (json-)file which includes all plugin messages and dirty flags
- fomod installer now tries to parse the xml with several encodings
- fomod installer will now display a diagnostics warning if the jpg imageformat isn't supported
- base preview plugin now tries to be a bit smarter about resizing images to fit the screen
- bugfix: fomod installer no longer tries to open an image even after detecting its invalid
- bugfix: potential null-pointer dereferentiation in getprivateprofile... hooks
- bugfix: potential null-pointer dereferentiation in download manager
- bugfix: internal origin name showed up in one more place
- bugfix: ToString function produced strings that were one (zero-termination-)character too long
- some code cleanup and consolidation
- hook.dll will now report all of its own exceptions
- some more logging during startup
- changed the way urls are encoded for download requests
- now displaying (one of the) process name(s) while waiting for a program to end
- bugfix: spawned processes were forced to leave the job
- extended set of default categories
- more tolerand bbcode parser
- added a few colors for the bbcode parser
- more fixes to qt5 compatibility
- started work on ability to unloading (and thus re-loading) of plugins
- names of plugins are no longer localizable (because those names are also used to store settings)
- added settings to disable individual diagnosis settings
- path of dependencies is now configured in a .pri file instead of environment variablees
- bugfix: if the modid-input is canceled, the id was saved as -1 and wasn't re-requested from the user
- bugfix: moving files with the SHFileOperation-Api didn't update the vfs correctly (still not perfect but better)
- bugfix: attempt to remove the deleter-file seems to have caused error messages for some users
- bugfix: fixed a couple of cases that might have caused the tutorial to hang
Without this the CEF (chromium embedded framework) seems to fail
- bugfix: Fixed an error message when installing a fomod wrapped in an archive
- bugfix: sorting plugins had no effect on non-skyrim games
- bugfix: fomod parser quit installing filelists after one file
- bugfix: function retrieving local appdata path read wrong directory
- added a workaround for download-link handling in chrome
- MO will now create a profile even if the game-launcher has never been run
- bugfix: files weren't cleanly removed from vfs file register
- loot_cli is no longer part of this project. I will probably create a fork of loot that allows command-line usage instead
- loot integration now works with such a modified loot version
- integrated loot will now also integrate incompatibility messages in the MO UI
- overwrite-markers are now updated as the list order is changed
- fnis checker will now always allow the user to ignore fnis errors
- plugin interface now has a function to wait for handles returned from startApplication (which can be job or process handles)
- bugfix: non-mo mods sharing the name with regular mods now have a different internal name
- bugfix: using hotkeys the vanilla game-plugins could be moved
- added a new mod column with icons displaying the content of the mod
- MO now differentiates between mods using an internal name that disambiguates between foreign and regular mods
- when starting an external application MO now wraps the process in a job and waits on that instead. This way MO is not unlocked early when skyrim is started through skse
- mod info dialog no longer offers the esp tab for foreign mods because that caused confusion
- updated translation files
- download directory and mod directory are now created if necessary
- bugfix: staging script created unnecessary copies of translation files
- bugfix: potential invalid array access when trying to determine best mod order
- bugfix: deleter file wasn't removed after esp hiding was disabled
- bugfix: potential access to to un-initialized login reply
- bugfix: changed the initialization order to allow more ui controls to be localized
- Context menu bugfix, previous method of getting rows didn't work when items
were selected in certain ways, e.g. Control-A
- Context menu now uses selectedIndexes(), which always works with all selections.
- Renamed enableFixMods to multipleSelected so same value can be used to decide
whether to show single or plural version of "Delete save(s)"
-- Save game deletion now does Recycle Bin delete (wishlist #675)
-- Save game deletion now also deletes .skse file (bug #687)
-- Can select and delete multiple save games (ExtendedSelection) (wishlist #675)
-- Uses new SaveGame->saveFiles() method to get filenames (eg .ess & .skse)
-- Context menu - "Fix Mods.." option only appears if 1 save is selected
-- Context menu - delete menu option labelled "Delete save" or "Delete saves",
according to 1 or >1 saves selected.
-- Context menu - delete menu confirmation shows list of all selected saves
-- New - SaveGame->saveFiles(), returns all filenames for save (eg. ess + skse)
-- Moved - SaveGameGameBryo->attachedFiles() to SaveGame->attachedFiles()
-- This allows the getting of save file names with just a SaveGame object, not
a GameBryo object, which would do a full file read including plugins and image etc.
-- Therefore SaveGame is no longer abstract.
- Transfer Saves: re-factored to use new SaveGame->saveFiles() method
-- Removed - TransferSavesDialog->getFilesToProcess, now redundant as information
is now provided by SaveGame class itself.
Extended the new ModOrganizer.pro 'make install' steps, to now also copy
$$(BOOSTPATH)\stage\lib\boost_python-vc*-mt-1*.dll
This is the final install step required, so that now ModOrganizer.exe works
fully when a Qt-Creator "Run" step is performed.
The wildcard should pick up the right version of the library regardless of
MSVC compiler version used.
Updated Qt5 version check to the standardised greaterThan check.
Previously, qmake did not detect when code was changed in the static libraries
So for example, changing code in shared/*.cpp and then Build, would not cause
a re-link and re-deploy of ModOrganizer.exe.
This has been fixed by adding PRE_TARGETDEPS references to each project that
depend on static libraries provided by other sub-projects.
These checks are conditional on debug|release, to point to the correct lib.
List of currently configured static library dependency checks -
organizer - mo_shared.lib, bsatk.lib
hookdll - mo_shared.lib, bsatk.lib
shared - bsatk.lib
bsaExtractor - bsatk.lib
I have tested to confirm that changing a shared file results in re-linking and
re-deplomyent of both ModOrganizer.exe and hook.dll.
Note that dependencies have not been configured for DLLs, as these are
loaded dynamically and so recompilation is not required.
But there could be an argument for configuring DLLs as dependencies too -
as if you make a change in DLL code, you might want all clients of the DLL to
be recompiled to check that they have not been broken by the changes?
The downside of that would be extra re-compilation every time.
Many small formatting changes to the majority of .pro files
Consistent style for Qt version checking, using greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4)
This seems safest, as would continue to work for a future Qt 6 etc.
Note that this makes redudundant the commit before this one, to organizer.pro
Consistent indenting
Moved some file configuration sections to be together with related sections
Moved some installation-related sections (e.g. OUTDIR/DSTDIR) to be at the bottom,
immediately before the related POST_LINK install lines.
Similarly, in some cases separated out CONFIG(debug,.. checks into separate
LIB/INCLUDE sections (high in file) and installation directory sections (low
in file)
Added config to install required libraries to output(d) directory
If the user adds a Deploy step, that runs 'jom install', he will have the
necessary libraries copied to output(d)\dlls
These libraries are -
7z.dll
Qt4 Core Declarative Gui Network OpenGL Script Sql Svg Webkit Xml XmlPatterns
Different set configured for Qt5, e.g. adding Widgets, Qml, Quick
In a debug build, the 'd' DLLs will be used instead.
Qt4 libraries are copied from system Qt4 installation directory.
This allows the Qt-Creator user to hit "Run" in Qt-C and end up with a complete
install, including all DLLs; no manual Exporer copying required.
This therefore removes the need for post-build steps 10 & 11 in Readme.txt.
Future thought - Update all current POST_LINK (x)copy steps to make install?
Fixed DESTDIR in ModOrganizer.pro
It was pointing to source/output(d) before, should be ..\output(d)
It was not used before so didn't matter, but is now referenced for install.
Building Mod Organizer can be a rather daunting task especially if you're not very comfortable with C++ development under windows.
Please note that if you only want to work on and build a plugin you can save yourself a lot of trouble
Overview:
---------
As of Juli 2014 MO consists of the following subprojects:
- organizer: The main userinterface. heavy usage of various libraries
- hookdll: core library of the virtual file system
- uibase: interop between plugins and the main application as well as some reusable functionality
- shared: functionality shared between organizer and hookdll. I'm attempting to get rid of this library over time
- nxmhandler: tool to pass handling of nxm links to MO or other applications
- helper: tool for doing operations requiring elevated priviledges if MO doesn't have them
- proxydll: dll used in the "proxy dll" load mechanism
- esptk: small library containing functionality to work with esps/esms
- bsatk: small library containing functionality to work with bsas. Requires zlib to extract files. Requires boost_thread to provide multi-threaded extraction
- archive: small wrapper library around 7zip for dealing with mod archives. Requires 7zip
- NCC: extension to NMM to provide a binary with command line interface for fomod installation. This is c# code and does not build with the rest of the project. Requires the rest of NMM
- bossdummy: dummy dll that looks like the boss.dll. This is used instead of the real boss dlls in NCC to save some disk space
- pythonrunner: library for embedding python code. Requires boost_python, python 2.7 and pyqt4
- loot_cli: this is a command line client of loot. This can be better integrated with MO than the official loot client.
And various plugins:
- bsaExtractor: offers to extract bsas after a mod has been installed
- checkFNIS: Activates each time an application is started from MO and runs fnis if necessary
- diagnoseBasic: Various diagnostic checks on the game
- inieditor: minimalistic file editor for ini files
- installerBundle: handles installation of archives wrapped in archives
- installerFomod: handles installation of xml fomods
- installerManual: handles installations of archives that aren't supported by any other plugin (or if the user chooses to do the installation manually)
- installerNCC: handles installation of any fomod (requires NCC)
- installerQuick: handles very simple one-click installations
- NMMImport: importer from existing nmm installation
- proxyPython: integrates pythonrunner as a plugin into MO
- pyniEdit: more user-friendly ini editor. python code
- previewBase: used for file previews. this plugin covers image formats supported by the qt installation (usually at least jpg, gif, png) and text files
- previewDDS: used to preview dds textures. uses code from the nif file format library
There are a few more plugins that are either broken or samples
- installerBCF: this was intended to use .bcf (bain conversion file) files as installation instructions but currently it is completely function-less
- helloWorldCpp: sample for cpp plugins. This should compile even without fulfilling most dependencies below
- pageTESAlliance: integrates the tes alliance page into MO. This integration is not nearly as tight as that of nexus.
Requirements:
-------------
Visual C++ compiler 2010 (VC 10.0) or up
- Included in visual c++ express 2010 or windows sdk 7.x
- Do install windows sdk too if only for the cdb debugger which is included in that package
Note: If you're having trouble installing the windows sdk, you may be affected by this bug: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2717426
- i.e. "Qt libraries 4.8.6 for Windows (VS 2010, 235 MB)"
- tested: 4.8.6
- Install according to instruction
Qt 5 Compatibility:
MO compiles and mostly runs correctly built with Qt 5.3 and VC++ 2013 but
- python plugins haven't been rewritten to use qt5 yet
- pyqt5 isn't distributed as binaries for python 2.7 so this needs to be set up and built first
- tutorial doesn't work because it seems to be impossible to create a transparent Qt Quick control...
- the previewdds plugin only compiles with the opengl variant of the qt 5 distribution
- Qt5 is a bi*** to distribute
boost libraries (http://www.boost.org/)
- tested: 1.55
- Build according to their instructions (using vc++): http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_54_0/more/getting_started/windows.html
- A few of the boost libraries need to be built (the rest is header-only). The only compiled libs MO needs (at the time of writing) are
boost_thread (for everything that links agains bsatk) and boost_python (for pythonrunner). You can disable the others to save yourself compile time (even on a modern system compiling boost can easily take an hour)
zlib (http://www.zlib.net/)
- Compile static library according to their instructions
- Depending on the version of zlib and how you built you should have a file called zlibstatic.lib or zlibstat.lib in "build" or "x86\ZLibStatRelease".
- Please copy that lib file to "build\zlibstatic.lib" (if it doesn't exist) so MO finds it.
- With Qt Creator usually the rule is "the newer the better"
- Start Qt Creator and check if things are set up correctly:
1) Go to Tools > Options > Build & Run > Qt Versions
2.1) If the QtSDK 4.8.x you installed earlier is not auto-detected, click "Add" to add it manually
2.2) Navigate to your <your qt4 installation>\bin\qmake.exe
2.3) Restart qt creator
3) Go to Tools > Options > Build & Run > Kits
3.1) If no Kit is auto-detected (or the auto-detected ones have picked up the wrong qt or vc++ installation) click "Add"
3.2) Enter a Name (i.e. "Qt 4.8.5 MSVC2010 32bit")
3.3) In Compiler select the visual studio compiler installed earlier (may show up as "Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows x). Make sure you select the x86 variant
3.4) CDB should be auto-detected
3.5) Select the qt version set up earlier
4) Apply and close the options
Set up (using Qt Creator):
--------------------------
1. Using Qt Creator open source/ModOrganizer.pro from your working copy
2. Open the "Projects" tab, open the "Details" for "Build Environment"
3a. Click "Add" to add a variable called "BOOSTPATH" with the path of your boost installation as the value (i.e. C:\code\boost_1_49_0)
3b. Click "Add" to add a variable called "ZLIBPATH" with the path of your zlib installation as the value (i.e. C:\code\zlib-1.2.7)
3c. Click "Add" to add a variable called "SEVENZIPPATH" with the path of your 7zip installation as the value (i.e. C:\code\7zip)
3d. Click "Add" to add a variable called "PYTHONPATH" with the path of your python installation as the value (i.e. C:\code\python)
4. Switch the build configuration at the very top of the same page from "debug" to "release" (or vice versa) and repeat step 3
5. Compile the configuration(s) you want to use (debug and/or release) (Build All). This should compile correctly.
6. <reserved for future use. Maybe grab a coffee?>
7. return to the "projects" tab and switch to "Run Settings"
8. Determine the folder of the qt binaries in the package you downloaded. This could be "QtSDK\Desktop\Qt\4.8.5\msvc2010\bin" or "Qt4.8.5\bin"
For Release build:
9r. Add a "Run configuration" that points to <your working copy>\output\ModOrganizer.exe
10r. Copy "7z.dll" to <your working copy>\output\dlls
11r. From the qt binaries directory, copy the following files to <your working copy>\output\dlls: QtCore4.dll, QtDeclarative4.dll, QtGui4.dll, QtNetwork4.dll, QtScript4.dll, QtSql4.dll, QtWebkit4.dll, QtXml4.dll, QtXmlPatterns4.dll
For Debug build:
9d. Add a "Run configuration" that points to <your working copy>\outputd\ModOrganizer.exe
10d. Copy "7z.dll" to <your working copy>\outputd\dlls
11d. From the qt binaries copy the following files to <your working copy>\outputd\dlls: QtCored4.dll, QtDeclaratived4.dll, QtGuid4.dll, QtNetworkd4.dll, QtScriptd4.dll, QtSqld4.dll, QtWebkitd4.dll, QtXmld4.dll, QtXmlPatternsd4.dll
Now you should be able to compile and run Mod Organizer.
Please note that when you change anything apart from the "organizer" subproject, qt creator may not pick up on the changes
and not recompile the modified subproject. the "organizer" project on the other hand is always re-linked. If anyone knowledgeable enough with qmake
can fix that that would be awesome.
Set up (without Qt Creator):
----------------------------
1. open a command line shell and navigate to <your working copy>\source
2. run "qmake -tp vc" to create a visual c++ solution
3. Open that solution
4. - 98. A miracle happens
99. You can now compile MO using VC
I'm not using this workflow so I can't give more detailed instructions.
Please note that the primary project format of MO remains qmake, if you work with visual studio and make changes to the project (like adding
source files) you have to manually transfer those changes to the .pro file.
-----------------
Troubleshooting (thanks to Ross):
-----------------
1) When I try to build, I am seeing the error "error: LNK1104: cannot open file 'zlibstatic.lib'"
a) Make sure you have the following files
{ZLIBPATH}\build\zconf.h
{ZLIBPATH}\build\zlib.h
{ZLIBPATH}\build\zlibstatic.lib
b) make sure "zlibstat.lib" was renamed to "zlibstatic.lib"
c) currently, there are references to zlibstatic in the following 2 project files:
./bsatk/bsatk.pro
./hookdll/hookdll.pro
2) After building, I try to open {MOPROJECTPATH}\outputd\ModOragnizer.exe and get this error
"The program can't start because QtDeclaratived4.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem."
-> When setting up Qt4.8.x, make sure you copied the "d" (debug) versions of the dll files to {MOPROJECTPATH}\outputd\dlls
If you copied the release version or did not copy the dlls at all, you may see this error.
3) I am getting one or more of the the following compiler warnings...
"{MOPROJECTPATH}\source\bsatk\bsaexception.cpp:32: warning: C4996: 'vsnprintf': This function or variable may be unsafe.
Consider using vsnprintf_s instead. To disable deprecation, use _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS. See online help for details."
-> Ignore/suppress warning like this and make be ultra-careful using printf-style functions. vsnprintf_s is a visual-c++ only function so using those would make porting (i.e. to mingw) harder
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\INCLUDE\stdio.h:354: see declaration of 'vsnprintf'"
-> see previous
"debug\bsaarchive.obj:-1: warning: LNK4042: object specified more than once; extras ignored"
-> This appears to be an issue when using VC++ 2010 as the compiler. There are some posts on StackOverflow
which suggest fixes when using VC++ as the IDE, but not sure how to apply them to Qt Creator.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3729515
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3695174
-> Also, not sure if this affects VC++ 2012 / VC++ 2013 / GCC via cygwin/mingw.
Not even sure if the project would successfully compile on these.
"{MOPROJECTPATH}\source\organizer\mainwindow.cpp:3995: warning: C4428: universal-character-name encountered in source"
-> very pointless warning.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11589571
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7078013
the best solution I saw was to just disable the warning altogether...
#pragma warning( disable : 4428 )
"warning: LNK4098: defaultlib 'LIBCMT' conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library"
Mod Organizer (MO) is a tool for managing mod collections of arbitrary size. It is specifically designed for people who like to experiment with mods and thus need an easy and reliable way to install and uninstall them.
## Building
Please refer to [TanninOne/modorganizer-umbrella](https://github.com/TanninOne/modorganizer-umbrella) for build instructions.
## Other Repositories
MO consists of multiple repositories on github. The Umbrella project will download them automatically as required. They should however also be buildable individually.
