Congrats to Ryan on his first PortableApps.com release

could you get the german page up?

if you have the time...

He did

I think Marko did it already. Just add a de/ to the beginning of the main page.

oh

he is faster than I thought

Please ...

... let me time to upload a first version before You start :-|

But no matter if the German page is up so quick after the release
Could You do the rest Simeon?
Thanks

Marko

for the trash???

OK I'll wait. I don't want to push you. Honestly.

Go for it :-)

I could not upload the first translation with the first try, but with the second one.
You are to quick for me, so I've edited my last post
I'll need some sleep to get the first version of the PA Update tool online tomorrow

Regards

Also,

I think it's worth noting, I looked into setting the language automatically with the installer, and although it's stored in the registry as a Windows language code (i.e. 1033), it needs to be converted to hex first and I didn't see a way to do that.

In any case, yay!

ok

what about the App itself?

I think its too much work for nothing. Maybe in the future when we want all apps with german installer/Launcher strings but not atm.

And if you have the time could you update the german front page?

Thank You for the other updates on the de/apps and utilities pages

Regards
Marko

Not on a News Story

Questions like this shouldn't go on a news story, rather in the Forums. This question is asked a lot, and there is several unsupported solutions available like using the 'Portable App Creator', or the 'Portable Application Template'. The best solution (but maybe the hardest is to modify the code from on of the launchers here in the Other\Source directory. Here's a recent post asking the same question. You can find those tools I mentioned by searching the forums. Please do not reply to this, thanks.

Yeah Ryan

Will download and try it out.
Congratulations

Tim

Congratulations Ryan

I really love this App and am very happy to see it in the official List.

I use it very often because its handy to compare nsi files between versions
Hope you get your games released soon *hint*!

Heck yes

I've been waiting for a program like this to pop up for free, several times I've had two huge folders on my drives and had no way of properly comparing the two other than just hard labour and guesswork. Now it's on my USB for free...top stuff!

BTW, long time user/reader, first time poster. I finally registered just to comment on this
