Looks like that should become:
Code: Select all
raise FTLDatError("Index is full")

That'd be the easy and reliable route.
But since you've already started porting, we can both learn a bit before you revert.

Ambitious.

ok I managed to get it to run, by hard editing the path to the resources, and moving the app to applications
Code: Select all
candidates.append(os.path.join("/", *["Applications","FTL","FTL.app","Contents","Resources"]))

not ideal but it seems to work, be nice to be able to leave the game in my games folder and select FTL.app when prompted.
have a look at the screen shot (scroll down) - let me know if that looks right to you, cheers

That's due to be fixed in 1.7.
I typoed the filetypes arg. This oughtta make the FTL.app choosable.
Code: Select all
result = tkFileDialog.askopenfilename(title="Find data.dat or FTL.app",
filetypes=[("data.dat or OSX Bundle", ("*.dat","*.app")), ("All Files", "*.*")])
The resource folder's path ultimately gets saved to modman.ini where it can be set with a text editor.
Delete the ini or give the setting an empty value, and GMM will ask again.

Yep. That's what it should look like (the toggle button could stand to be wider, but otherwise...).
Congratulations! I initially taught myself PHP that way once.
I'm nearly done myself, adjusting the beleeding-edge code to work in both 2.x and 3.x (no promises that it'll stay that way). It's not committed yet. I'm still wrestling with one of the new features.
If I don't get that working in time, you should revert to 2.x if you haven't already.
Edit: The 3.x-friendliness changes have been submitted to Grognak for GMM 1.7.

Why the hell would you download it from GitHub... Just use the mediafire links.

Since you're on Windows...
- Open a dos prompt (run as administrator, if necessary).
- cd to GMM's directory.
- Run: "main.py"
If you've got python installed, the exe's just a fancy launcher.

Downloading from github lets you play with not-yet-released features.
The downside is it's not packaged up for distribution to end-users.
When the app's in a language that doesn't need compiling, it's not so tough for users to get a snapshot running.

I've found a bug - GMM crashes whenever the mods folder contains more .ftl files than can fit on the manager's list - namely, 7 is max, at 8 and more it starts crashing.

Fixed in GMM 1.7. That was a subtle one.
The bug surfaces in non-US locales that have commas for decimal points in their numbers.
The gui library lets a comma sneak in somewhere when it does math, and it panics.
If you're impatient, you can get your copy working thusly:
Find this line in main.py, near the top.
Code: Select all
locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, "")
Add this below it.
Code: Select all
locale.setlocale(locale.LC_NUMERIC, "C") # Use period for numbers.
You'll need to run main.py directly, as modman.exe has a broken copy of its own, bundled inside.
* Technically the locale poisoning wasn't truely fixed until Python 3.2, but this workaround is good for all versions.
