Nico,

Sorry I just saw this post today. I can send it to you tonight. :-)

Best regards,

Andre Guerreiro Neto

Indeed. Very nice.

Nico,

I can't see why the extension wouldn't work in CF2.5.
I'll upload a final zip file soon so everything goes in the right folder.

Thank you.

Best regards,

Andre Guerreiro Neto (byo)

Hi, Nico.

Yes, exactly.
But it wouldn't be so hard to port to other SDK since the DLL is only a "text container" with a random generator code.

Best regards,

Andre Guerreiro Neto (byo)

I will do my best. :)
Being a DBA (almost fulltime) and attending college consumes most of my time. :O
But I love Clickteam products. Can't avoid it! lol

Best regards,

Cool! As soon as I have a working version I'll send it to you privately so you can test, if you don't mind.

Best regards,

Only Windows for the time being.
But I'm intending to give the Android SDK a go. There's a lot for me to learn though.

Wow, that's a whole lotta work you put into this and it looks polished.

I wish I could make games like that :(

Unfortunately I cannot do that. The installer is to make sure that only people who own a legal copy of MMF2 are able to install the extension.

Out of curiosity, do...

It's true. Bad LIJI. :D :D
