Load orders for files inside archives.

Open CortexReaver opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

There is a slight problem with selecting files inside zips. You can select them, but you can not chose the order in which they will run. 30-05-2022 180217 Some mods need particular load file order, but the default order of this list in DoomLauncher is by archivation date (I checked it). So I need to repack these files until it meets the condition of what is written in readme file.

Correspondingly with my previous mock-ups, here is what I proposing for selecting files inside archives:

31-05-2022 094042 (sorry for the same archive name, hope it doesn't matter that much)

seriously this, i need this feature to be added, its a hassle to sort the files individually with its archive and/or utilities, and for the love of me I can not find the option so far to sort the wads and pk3s inside the archives itself

Agreed, it doesn't need to be complicated either (like the second screenshot). There's already a UI included that shows the user all the files. If we could arrange that list things would be great.

The idea was to make profiles, which includes multiple archives that you can quickly add to any other mod. Colors shows you what profiles they are corresponding to, so you know what you are about to delete.

But yes, without profiles it might be simplified, although I think it is a good thing to see from which archive the particular file is coming. So in that case you might need to show the hierarchy every time you separate files from the same archive.
