As those of you who hang around IRC know, I've been working on an alternative game manager for quite some time now. I've finally gotten it semi-stable and what I would consider feature-complete. For now. So I'm deciding to beta test it to a wider audience.

And once again, NEW VERSION!
This version is the culmination of the basic featureset. There is only one more feature I will be adding to the core of D2Driver before I revamp the entire UI--key switching. After I add that and revamp the UI, I will be adding plugin support, so everyone's pet features can be included without hassle or waiting on me to get around to it. And I'll likely be pushing lots of features out of the core of D2Driver and into plugins.
Anyway,
READ THE README if you are upgrading from a previous version.
D2Driver
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
D2Driver is an alternative game manager for D2BS. It focuses on simplicity
and ease of use over features and flashy GUI. It sports a clean layout, a
profile and settings editor (to simplify the installation process), and a
new starter script.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Copy the contents of the zip file into your D2BS directory. That's it!
Everything else is handled automatically. D2Driver will pick up on your
existing settings and profiles.
NOTE: If you are updating from an older version, you MUST click "Edit
Profile"--I moved a bunch of the settings into D2Driver, which means that
they have to be re-initialized in order for things to work. If you do not
do this, then you will see an error that says "Invalid mode".
RUNNING INSTRUCTIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Open D2Driver.exe, select the profile tab you want to run (you can run
multiple profiles at the same time if you wish), click the enabled checkbox
(if necessary), and click start. The rest should Just Work(TM).
SCRIPT MANAGER INSTRUCTIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The script manager allows you to keep up to date with your script. When
you click on the Manage Scripts button a new window pops up and displays
available scripts and existing scripts in two list boxes. Highlighting an
available script and clicking on "Check out" will download the script and
put it in your D2BS folder. That moves the script to the other list box--
the Current scripts list. Highlighting a Current script and clicking on
"Update" will update that script. Using these two mechanisms, managing
scripts is as easy as a single click.
