Hi there, I'm finding Doom Launcher to be really useful. I've been curating a huge list of WADs and mods (just for personal use for now), and using the tag function extensively:
- Sorting based on the type of WAD/mod (eg. singleplayer level, gameplay mod, monster mod, TC, sound, etc)
- Creating tags to keep mods with several component parts together
- Tags for IWAD compatibility
- Tags for sourceport compatibility
- Various lists (eg. cacowards winners, etc)
and so on. Like this:
Using tags so extensively means there's a lot of tabs, and it's awkward to scroll through them at the top of the window with the little tiny left and right buttons that slowly scroll through the list. I do have some of them hidden from view, of course, but I'm using these tags to show me lists of WADs and mods of a certain specification, and not just using them as descriptors.
To me, ideally, it would look something like this, in Launchbox, with the tags on the side:
Having the tags listed vertically, with a scrollbar, would make it a lot easier to scroll through the tags.
It would also be nice to have the same view in the file selection dialog in the launcher window as, for instance, I'm looking for a Vanilla wad to try out a particular gameplay mod with, and i have to scroll all the way to the end of the tab list -- it would make it a lot easier if I could just grab the scrollbar, drag it where I want, and select the tag.
Anyway, that's my suggestion. Whether or not something like this gets added, I'm still appreciative for the great program. Thank you!
