Work on v1.5 is progressing, after losing all my source code from the past 2 months, due to a hard drive crash. um... This basically means that the application is better than I thought I could program it for. It now creates somewhat working batch files, and will allow for bitmap/targa extraction from all versions of halo. (That is, of course, if pfhorslayer allows me to release this special version of HME). 



The gui is completely changed, and has a couple new, neat features. It has become somewhat of a launcher of popular halo-modding apps. 



The final build will (I hope) contain an INI file, and allow for maps to be altered, no matter where they reside on your hard drive. For the beta builds, which should be out shortly, (Perhaps even today), the ini file is nonexistant, and no code to support one is implemented.



To use the batch file maker, you MUST name the file "batfile.bat", in order for the app to read the file. Later versions will allow for any name... (heck, all it is is that I'm lazy to program the 3 lines of code...)
