Hi all,

I modified PlayOnLinux a little bit. Following changes has been made:
- PopUp menu in game list
> enable user to change icon
> enable user to open application directory



- LiveInstall
> added possibility to choose Wine version before installing application
> added possibility to use WineTricks script before installing application if WineTricks plug-in available
> made checbox list to avoid configuration when it's not needed



- POL_SetupWindow_download (all warnings cause application to stop)
> display warning message if cannot connect to server
> display warning message if cannot find file on server
> display warning message if WineVersion server isn't available



- winecfg is now started with appropriate Wine version

- Added new way of launching application from command line

playonlinux --run2 "MyGame"
it disables "WINEDEBUG=-all" and the output is:

Your system : MySystem
System architecture : MyArchitecture
Your video card : MyGraphicCard
Graphic card driver : MyDriversVersion
direct rendering: MyDirectRendering
OpenGL : MyOpenGL
Compiz in background : MyCompiz
Executable file : My.exe (2.382 MB)
Content of app launcher :

#!/bin/bash
PATH="/home/MyUser/.PlayOnLinux/WineVersions/1.1.28/usr/bin/:$PATH"
export WINEPREFIX="/home/MyUser/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/MyPrefix"
export WINEDEBUG="-all"
cd "/home/MyUser/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/MyPrefix/drive_c/Program Files/MyGame"
wine "My.exe" $@

Content of terminal output :

wine: configuration in '/home/MyUser/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/MyPrefix' has been updated.

I also made winetricks plug-in.

Hello NSLW,

Thanks you for the new version. But, with Winetrick, it's not a problem if i use in my script this command :

cd "$REPERTOIRE/ressources"
export POL_TITLE="$Title"
tricks d3dx9

Ok that is very interesting.

Can you replace "run2" by "debug"

Did you write all in python or POL bash language ?

Can you replace "run2" by "debug"

It's not a problem. I can do that.

Did you write all in python or POL bash language ?

I wrote some parts in python and some in bash. You can see patches directory in package for what I added.

Ok that's perfect. I'll test it when i have the time and upload it. Thank's

I Have made some modification, I will post it there very soon, so you can see them and tell me what you think about it

Ok ! Here the new file :

http://www.playonmac.com/divers/playonlinux-3.7-testing.zip

Some news :
- Kill All Application
- Popup menu modified to add new functionality
- Icon should update when PlayOnLinux is not restarted
- --debug instead of --run2
- Translation improved
- ...

Ok, nice !

What do you think about cleaning language files? I could provide cleaned up .po and .mo files and in right order.

BTW. Could you add my nickname also at other scriptors on credits window?

Ok I will do that tomorrow for your nickname.

Cleaning the language file could be a good idea for the next version. What do you think about this release ?

Cleaning the language file could be a good idea for the next version.

Do you mean 3.7 or 3.8?

What do you think about this release ?

I think it's good. I think that after some testing (and cleaned language files) it can be a good cause for new release.

I think it is not a priority to clean up the language file because the translation may be useful in the future. However, you can clean as you like as long as you remove only unused translations.

I think it could be good to rename etc directory to ressources, but it might be a problem for some scripts or plugins

However, you can clean as you like as long as you remove only unused translations.

Ok, I created scripts which cleaned up every language file. What i did is:

1) I took fr.po (as this was most translated file) and searched whole playonlinux directory (with plugins) for phrases which were there, phrases which were not available went to fr-rejected.po

2) I took phrases from new fr.po and searched for them in e.g. de.po In such way i created new de.po which contained translated and untranslated phrases. Untranslated phrases were also added to de-added.po

3) I translated many untranslated phrases in de.po and pl.po

Here I upload your POL-3.7-testing with language modifications

I hope you add this modifications also to new POL release.

Some french translations have disappeared

I'm going to post POL 3.7 with old languages file. Take the time to make the modification for the future release

So please include new Polish and German translations. I made there many more translations.

Sorry, it is too late :S

But I think the problem will be the same, a lot of sentances are not translated

Hello,

I don't know if it's a bug but i can't choose a new icon for my game.
For exemple, in this screen, i want to change the icon for "Sacred" so i choose "d708_sacred.0.xpm" and I click on "Open". But, the icon is not change, it's always the default's icon (PlayonLinux icon).

Thanks for your help. :)

The screen :

1) What version do you use? Downloaded from this forum site or official release?
2) Do you've got ~/.PlayOnLinux/icones/32/Sacred?
3) Run playonlinux in terminal and try to change icon

1) I use the official release.

2) I uninstalled Sacred and i tried with Steam. Same problem. And there is Steam.xpm in ~/.PlayOnLinux/icones/32/

3)When i launch PoL in terminal and i try to change the icon, i have this message :
Steam
Set the icon
Running (remotely) configuration of Steam
and nothing after.

4) But it's normal if it's ~/.local/share/icons and not ~/.PlayOnLinux/icones/32/ when i try to change the icon?

I haven't got any problem and I don't know why you do have one.

4) yes
