IndigoResumer v2.3

i recoded this indigo launcher, the only thing it does is avoiding you to type all the paths of the IGSes and IGIs...i hope you find it useful.

How to use it:

It's very simple...

-Extract the .zip into a dir of your decision.

-The very first time you open it, i'll ask for the indigo's exe file, you must search it and select it.

-The first textbox is where you have to type the IGS (indigo scene file) path and filename, click on the button on the right side and selecting it or you can drag the IGS file and drop it in this textbox.

-The second textbox is where you have to type the IGI (indigo resume file) path and filename, click on the button on the right side and selecting it or you can drag the IGI file and drop it in this textbox.

-And then just click "Resume" button, it will create a .cmd file and then it will automatically execute it...

Optionally you have two options:
1.- Check BELOWNORMAL to run indigo below the normal priority.
2.- Check Networking to use the network functionality, when you check it, there are going to appear 2 option buttons, Master and Slave, if you choose Master, it'll run as Master, and if you select Slave, obviously, it will run as Slave (there is going to appear a textbox where you have to type the hostname of the Master, automatically the port is 7777, i took it from the Reference Manual)

Change log

v2.3

-Fixed the issue with blank spaces in file's path [Duh! my mistake, yeah a big one]
-Added /BELOWNORMAL setting.
-Added networking modality.
-Added Drag-n-Drop funcionality on path's text fields.
-Removed the inservible "required" files and directory. (now, there is only the exe file, the Indigowrapper.conf is automatically created, the data dir, were deleted as the lastIGI and lastIGS, since they are useless.)

Known issues:

-some windows do not have the control needed to run indigoResumer wich is commdlg32.ocx you can download it here: http://www2.indigorenderer.com/joomla/f ... hp?id=1015 you must put these files into "C:\WINDOWS\system32" to make it work.

I apologize for the inconvenience my stupidity caused to all you guys who downloaded the v1.0, sorry, but now it's Faster and Stronger (not that much, but a bit, hehehe)

I was just about to code this exact thing!

I cannot wait to try it tonight when I get home from work.

Question though...can you have it launch the master and then a slave on the same machine as well?

emm. i just coded it based on the reference manual parameters, anyway, you can, but i think i would be useless if you only have one core, but if you have a daul core, i think this should be -n m and then -n -s -h localhost:7777, read the manual included with indigo... there they explain it.

So , you have to run indigoresumer v2.3 once and choose all the requested info, and then select Networking and Master, and click Resume, and then just now select Slave and put "localhost" on the textbox for the hostname, the port will be automatically assigned, and click resume, i think it should work. It will work as a network but in your personal computer. but i dont know if doing this is really faster or better.

"remember path update" request:
At the Moment, Indigo Resume only remembers ONE Path:
The lastes one, where you are.

Can you make it textbox specific?
I mean: If you first open the .igs (searching for the path), then you open the .igi, it remembers the .igs path.
That's ok, the first time....
Then, if you reuse the indigo-resumer, it remembers the .igi-path, no matter, if you click on the textbox-directory-search-button for the .igs or for the one of the .igi...

If you first search the .igi, then the .igs, the reversed will happen, as it ever saves the lastest path...

I hope, it's clear, what I mean :S

Great work

Name idea: as the logo is Cyan-ish, this one could be called "Cyan"

other suggestions:
Aqua
Aquamarine
Azure
Turquoise
Cerulean
Cobalt
Cornflower Blue
Denim
Dodge Blue
"Blue Jade" (a costum name)
Steel blue
Robin Egg Blue
Bondi Blue
Pinegreen
Teal
Viridian

ok... some are definately unusable, I just looked into Wikipedia's list of colours for some ideas....

Quick remark:
In threads option, you got up to 4 and then 4 again. Shouldn't it be 8 as max?

I get an fatal erro when using this program. there seems like it cant open the inifile.txt file. Whats that about?

daniel_nieto · Post by **daniel_nieto** » Sat Jun 16, 2007 7:37 am

man, i think you are not selecting the right igses and igi's, this program do not do anything with inifile.txt, i mean, it never touches it... so, it shouldnt give any problems with that file...

i changed the placement of the indigo resumer folder to outside the indigo folder. And now it works like a charm.

I had the resumer inside and it worked, too...

@ZYX

Hmm, ... try to register the .ocx with regsvr32 like this ...

Open a shell and type in:

Code: Select all

regsvr32 /i path:\\to\your\.ocx

Hope this will help! ;o))

take care
