Torchlight Mod Manager v1.1

[Shadowstorm]

Hey everyone.

I've stopped working on this program - feel free to openly edit and improve the code, and release it however you want.

List of features
• Enable/disable mods.
• Install/delete mods.
• Configure game file and application directory to fit your installation of Torchlight.
• Characters are backed up when you use the 'Launch Torchlight' button (easy to restore them later if needed).
• Create a Torchlight shortcut which saves a backup of your characters when launched (could use some improvement).

How to setup game path and application data path
• Under Settings, change your game file to either Torchlight.exe or Steam.exe from your Torchlight installation directory.
If you choose Steam.exe, the program will use -applaunch 41500 as launch arguments, so there's no need for you to think about that.
• Change your application data directory path to %appdata%\runic games\torchlight (for example: C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\runic games\torchlight), and the program should find the mod directory automatically (if it hasn't been moved or altered in any way than its original state).

Download Torchlight Mod Manager here:

Note: The attached .dll file must be in the same directory as the program (if you want to be able to create a game launch shortcut).

Requires .NET Framework 2.0 - download it here if you don't already have it:

Great tool! You've been featured on the Torchlight Mods blog!

Cheers! Thanks for the attention

I believe this is the third mod manager to be posted in this forum. I really think it would be a great idea if all the mod manager makers worked together.

Outstanding work on a much needed project! Anyone that has played Oblivion can agree that a mod manager is an invaluable tool.

Kudos to you.

I will give it a shot soon and report anything odd I run into.

Ahh, I see what you mean. I'll try to fix it.

[Shadowstorm]

The issue should be fixed now. If it isn't, report to me again and I'll try to find another solution.
Use the updater to patch the program.

This mod is beautiful!!!!! We at TCC will probably use this to work with our mods. Please keep up the good work.

If you've already downloaded the program, please run the updater once, so it will look for build version updates automatically.

[flufsor]

The update worked perfectly
gratzz on the speed and effectiveness.

Interesting, i will DL it tonight. Where is the mod manager screen located? A desktop menu or in game menu?

It isn't built-in into Torchlight if that's what you're wondering. Start the program, select which mods you want to disable/enable, then launch Torchlight (there's a 'Play Torchlight' button for convenience, which also makes a backup of your characters).

the gui looks great! it's a bit slow when it launches (5 seconds).
any chance of adding a separate tab for the settings.txt ??

looking forward to more updates!

Hmm, the slow start is most likely the Auto-Update function (it checks for updates everytime it's launched) - turn off the Auto-Update function and restart the program and check if it's still slow.

About the tab for settings.txt, what do you exactly mean? A form that let's you overlook all settings?

updates are off, still a bit slow.
settings.txt features, like a check box for playing in windows, console mode on/off, etc.

Weird, the program starts in a flash on my computer. Will have to take a look into that.
About the settings: Aren't those options that can be edited in-game?

Ah yes, you're right. I've actually taken a look in that file before - might be something I'll add.
Although, some of the stuff in that file are pretty unknown stuff (at least for me), for example: FSAA or ALLOW HWSKINNING.
You know of a good post that explains all of those options?
