User file for Case data

Can I create a Cases_User.slk file to handle the different varieties of cases that I load? So far I have not been able to get Ver 2.0.0.17 to recognize the user file.

You are the first person to request that in 5 years. If they are specific brands I can add them to the default database and they will just "show up" after patching.

Thanks . That would be helpful. Maybe I could update the existing file with additional vendors which could be incorporated in a future update if you should choose to do so.

Do not edit the data file. All the changes will get overwritten the next time the patcher gets run. Just post here what lines you want added to the case file and I will do so.

Thanks, I will add those for the next update.

At some point in the future, I plan to make an online tool here on the website that will allow users here to submit data. It will make it much easier to manage.

Yep.

I should be pushing up a new version in the next day or two. I fixed a patcher issue last night I want to get pushed up.

I am so happy this patcher stuff works in general it makes me giddy! Very Happy

It works very well. In the past people would report issues from all kinds of different versions, now with the patcher everyone should be running roughly the same version.
