Portable Oolite

Hello everybody,

Maybe you've heard about Oolite, the GNU OpenGL Elite clone :

http://oolite.aegidian.org/

I suggest it because it is really easy to be made portable.

Once the game is installed, the path to the oolite directory is written in the RunOolite.bat file which is located in the Oolite install directory. Just modify this file by replacing the path (including the name of the Oolite directory) by %C%. The game can now be launched from any drive by double clicking on the RunOolite.bat file. The only missing step is now to turn the .bat file into a .exe file and it will fit in the PortableApps menu.

Here is my RunOolite.bat file:

@echo off
set GNUSTEP_PATH_HANDLING=windows
set GNUSTEP_LOCAL_ROOT=%CD%\oolite.app
set GNUSTEP_NETWORK_ROOT=%CD%\oolite.app
set GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT=%CD%\oolite.app
set HOMEPATH=%CD%\oolite.app
oolite.app\oolite.exe

Best regards,

Maybe we heard about it?...

Can't say as *I* have, anyway, but I find its name kinda misleading - my first thought was that it was "Open Office Lite" - until I read the initial post...
