Chip360 0 Posted December 27, 2007 Hey thar everybody, I just spent the past 4 hours unPBOing all of my various addons (about 17 gb Worth) and changing the display names for every addon I own in the configs (for consistency, ie. you wont see \\\$^@CKZ @DDON!/// in the editor, but "US 2nd MEF (Desert) ) It took a very long time, and for a quick sample of what I have, lookey here: Quote[/b] ]BLUEFOR Air Air A-10 Varients Air UH60 Varients Air Pilots BW Air BW Weapons BW Units IAF Air US 1st MEF (ACU) US 2nd MEF (Mar) US 2nd MEF (Des) US 31st MEF (Mar) US 31st MEF (Des) US 82nd Airborne Division US 101st Airborne Division US 5th Special Forces Group US ACU (Boss) US DEA Operators US Desert Seals (BNS) US Special Forces (Woodland) US Special Forces (CQB) US Special Forces (Desert) US Special Forces (Civilian) US Marines (Desert) US Marines (Woodland) US Marines (Nomex) US SWAT (Dallas) US SWAT (Heavy) PKW Vehicles It all looks MUCH nicer! So, pheww, thats all done, but Ive run into a problem, I fired up Armed Assault, went into the editor, and what did I find? US 2nd MEF (Mar) BW Air US 82nd Airborne US Swat (Dallas) Air Pilots Everything is out of order!!! BUGh!!!! I then noticed that everything you see in the editor is arranged according to how the PBO's are arragned in the addon folder.... ugh, i have over 200 Pbos in my main Addon Folder alone, and they all have various (very difficult and random) names.. Is there a way to arrange things in the editor according to Alphabetical order of the Display names? Ie, Air would come first, then Bw, then the US units, etc? Does anyone know how to do this? If not, what are your thoughts on the rehaul of the editor? has anyone here tried to do something along the same lines as me? Anyone find any solutions that work? There are starting to be sooo many addons out there and when everyone names them bogus vague names like "my first addon" and "alrunit2.2" things start to become extremely difficult in the editor...

Chip360 0 Posted December 27, 2007 haha, yes, of course, it is a most excellent addon! I should rephrase something too, um, neither of those are full lists, all of the units are in the game, everything has been renamed successfully and it all checks out fine, but the only problem is the order in which everything is in the editor, ide love to make it all alphabetical order, perhaps it is possible to make a script or config or something to make such a change to the editor?
