Module upload on te4.org

#1 Post by Grey »

Just trying to upload Mosaic to the te4.org site... Couple of suggestions to improve the interface:

- Say on the Create New Module screen that you have to separately upload the module, and include a link on the bottom of that page to the upload page.
- Say on the site how to get the MD5 number. "The MD5 sum of the module as given by the game" is cryptic and unhelpful. I have no idea how to find this :-/
- Have clearer tips on various fields. I've been asked for the module name about 6 times now, and I've no idea what relevance any of this has to how it gets displayed. Maybe gives examples with each?
- Accept links to files instead of just uploading.
- Restrict "Game Module" selection to just your own games. Right now it looks like anyone can overwrite other people's files.

Run the game. Load the module. Close the game.

Search MD5 in the TE4.log file. It will find MD5 for numerous things, and hopefully fairly obvious would be your own module's MD5.
