*** All users should rename their fade sounds located on RocketLauncher\Media\Fade\ folders to follow the naming convention: Loading start*.mp3 and Loading complete*.mp3 for sounds to be played on normal fade screens. 7z extracting*.mp3 and 7z complete*.mp3 for sounds to be played on fade extraction screens. '*' represents any string defined by the user.
This release gives the ability for users to write custom code that can be launched at certain points in any module (only ones rewritten to support classes from 1/23/2016 and later)
Open the updated Lib\UserFunctions (Example).ahk for additional info. In a future update, I plan to copy the PCLauncher settings to all systems. No ETA on this.
Also in this release, all class-based modules now support the updated global/system/rom settings method. This means that settings are now read in this priority order: Rom -> System -> Global. So if a setting is not found in the Rom ini, it looks for it in the System ini, still not found, will look in the Global ini. No longer will RL look for all settings in a single ini if the file exists. Again this is ONLY for the class-based modules.
This is the static placement of module inis in each module folder:
Example:
Note: Module settings (ISD) do not necessarily support all these settings. It is up to the module author to add support for all those inis if they are needed for the module. Most modules do NOT need that granular of a setting hierarchy. But RL does support it nonetheless.
