• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Using 'Python' instead of batch files for CFS3

I took a python class ages ago, I remember nothing.

I've found that Autohotkey is also capable of doing anything we've used batch for. It's fairly simple to learn how to make basic scripts. I've gradually expanded on my knowledge over the years starting from very basic scripts to writing the Spitfire module using it. https://www.autohotkey.com/
 
Thanks guys. Yes JSGME is probably great for changing stuff pre game but also looking for in game startup changes as we do in ETO with batch files. I'll look at Autohotkey and see if I can a) understand it and then b) use it!:wiggle:
 
I found I couldn't trust the ETO / RS Batch files to work reliably on my system. After a couple of disasters I converted them all into free standing installs.

The Autohotkey scripts seem to work fine.
