    For some reason it always wants to open up the readme in Word. I hate that.

    Wohoo, nice update. Spadille is getting better and better! :)

    More suggestions:

    - Inside the Ironsight Manager:
    -- I want to add more ironsights at once. Adding one ironsight after the other takes some time...
    -- It's nice-to-have to see the filesize of a certain ironsight but I don't actually see any use for it. Better would be the imagesize. I still have some ironsights with the old 400x400px size. So this would help me sort them out. (Automatically converting the old 400x400px to the new 800x600px would be awesome too. But I doubt it's worth the effort.)
    -- Make the "Ironsight Manager" window resizable.

    - Add a minimum size for the Screenshots window. So that I always see all the buttons.

    - Add more access keys (I think that's how you call it) to the menu. I mean those underlined chars so you can faster move around in the menu. Atm there's only one for "File". I think it's done by putting an ampersand (&) just before the character.

    - In the Options window:
    -- It says "Spidalle". :P
    -- The server browser items are redundant and not really helpful here I think. I even found out that the "Hide Full/Empty Servers" checkboxes are not consistent with the menu-option under the Servers --> Filters menu. Just play around with them a bit and you will notice that they don't update the others all the time.

    - The Audo Update speed "fast" is much too...fast imo. It updates like every second which nobody needs and just hammers Ben's site. It also seems like it actually only updates every ~10 seconds even though I choose "fast". At least that's the approximate duration until I see some updates on the servers-list.

    - Another (maybe useless) feature: Let us move around the columns.

    - Maybe add the recent servers list to a Windows 7 jump list. I mean these lists.

    - Add an option to minimze Spadille to the system tray. (I don't really care about this but it's always nice-to-have.)

    - Add "Copy server name" to the rightclick menu in the servers-list. Maybe do it like this to avoid clutter:
    "Copy..."
    --> "server name"
    --> "IP address"
    --> "URL"

    - Inside the "Favourites" window:
    -- Make this window resizable too.
    -- Let me sort by any column.
    -- The column labels look much nicer (because they look more "default"/Windows like I think) than the one in the servers-list.
    -- Add the possibility to select servers with the [CTRL]-key and then remove all the selected ones with the "Remove"-button. If you don't want to go that way, an alternative: Automatically select another (above/beneath) server after you removed one server so that you can just rapidly click "Remove" a couple of times to remove many servers.
    -- The same goes for the "Blacklists" & the "Saved Maps" window.

    - When I click on "Copy" inside the "Saved Maps" window without any map in the list I'm gonna get an exception. (I don't post the detailed error text since it's obviously just the parameter "index" being 0 which seems like "OutOfRange".)

    That's enough for today. :)

    @Buffet_of_Lies, that's because it's a Rich Text Format (.rtf) file. You must have the .rtf extension associated with Word. I meant to switch over to a basic .txt file, but forgot to. I'll be sure to change it.

    @Green_Beret
    Who's the developer here? lol just messing with you :P I appreciate the feedback. Where to start hmmm lol

    The "size" in the ironsight window was intentionally meant for the resolution, not the actual file size, must've skipped my mind. (been up for about 2 days straight now)

    Also, I had originally removed the redundant options, but a power outage cause me to lose this along with other things and I had to resort to an older backup.

    As for the system tray, I think it was 1.0 that I had it minimize to the system tray, but later removed it. I couldn't really justify any reason for having it down there besides saving space from the taskbar. It's a possibility, but I'd at least want to get more functionality out of it other than the obvious taskbar space it saves.

    The jump lists, never even thought of that. I actually don't think I've ever had to deal with the new "superbar" on any programming level. Might be a good experience. Just sucks that anybody using anything pre-Win7 won't be able to benefit from it, but oh well.

    And finally, the update speed. The speeds go as fallows:

    Slow = 10 seconds
    Normal = 5 seconds
    Fast = 1 second

    The update speeds actually are accurate, as I've tested them on different machines on different networks. The first request is often slower than the rest due to DNS caching along with proxy settings (this has been fixed in recent versions). I will probably add a custom update speed option in the future. I do have it set, however, to stop updating the server list when a user attempts to connect to a server, to help preserve bandwidth for both the user and the master server.

    I got a majority of the bugs fixed and suggestions implemented. Just doing some double-checking before I release it.

    Nice program, I am definitely going to try this, once I get into modifying the skins.

    Great program.

    Is there a way to remove confirmation when trying to join a server?

    lol thanks, I think. That's how Spadille started, it was a server browser/config editor and just over time I've added features to it. I mostly add features that I think will be useful and take suggestions from others as well.

    Best version yet. I really have to say the screenshot manager is what sets this apart from the other server browsers. And the simple interface. And, yes, I agree with the guy asking about the join confirmation. If I double-clicked on it... I don't want to be asked again. Just join the damn server before someone else does, thank you.

    Hey, thx for all these updates! :) I'm having no issues/suggestions any more atm.
    Just one thing (quoting myself):

    -- It says "Spidalle". :P

    Now, it's "Spidille". :D
    I vote for "Spadalle" in the next update. :P

    And yeah, I've also checked the wiki-page about server browser tools and Spadille is by far the best one imo. So, gj!

    Bumping this since I'm going to be gone for the night (maybe several?) and I figured I'd use this as a chance for anybody to pitch ideas or report bugs that I can try to work into the next release.

    New AoS-update added two config-lines:
    - inverty (invert y-axis of your mouse)
    - caplimit (change the capture limit for your server)

    Maybe add this to your Config Editor in Spadille.

    Just released v1.3.9. It might be a bit buggy, I'm sorry, I just have a lot going on lately.

    New features include a mod manager for both KV6 files and WAV files, added config options for invert mouse and capture limit. Added option to automatically ping servers from local machine when refreshing the server list.

    One "bug" that already exists (it was a bit rushed, sorry) is the "Timed Out" response for ping times. This isn't entirely consistent, rather an issue with ICMP that I'll try to fix in the next release. If it bother's you too much, you can simply disable automatic pinging in the options dialog.

    As always, any bug reports or suggestions are appreciated and again, I'm sorry for both the delay and any obvious bugs I might have missed. Thank you.

    Spadille v1.3.9

    - Added support for subdirectories for mods/sounds/maps/sights

    This is really useful~
    Man how easy is making mods for this? I want there to be a way so I can choose two different skins for each team, but I have no clue how I would begin. hahah.

    With the ironsight manager, you can easily change your in-game ironsight. Just click on Tools->Ironsight Manager and you can easily import, "assisn", and remove ironsights.
    in the readme, you should fix that XD

    I know, but with mods it could be possible don't you think? I honestly don't know. But it's just a guess/question

    Just noticed a little bug in v1.3.9 since the 0.50 update. Spadille wasn't properly detecting the new update. I fixed and and released as sort of a hotfix since that was the only change since the last release. Enjoy.

    question, stupid i know, its about the modding thing.

    do they have to be the names (ie Semi.kv6 or whatever the hell), or can it be the specific name of the guns the mods represent, and the thing changes it autmaticly as it switched it out (ie, i can have it called ARC, and it autmaticly changes it to the semi.kv6 file when i press assign, but it keeps its file name in the mod list)?

    edit:when ever i press the print screen button it doesnt seem to be taking the screen shot like it should :S

    That was something I had considered and there was 2 ways I could go about doing it, or at least 2 that I thought of. The first is the method I used, which is allowing sub-directories in the folder where mods are stored. For example, you can create a folder called "ARC" in that folder and then store all corresponding "ARC" mods in said folder. To find them in the manager, simply look at the "location" column and find the ones located under "ARC/". To find the directory where all of the mods are stored,s imply click "Browse" in the manager. The other method I could have used was to allow custom names, such as "arc.kv6" and then allow the user to select which KV6 file in the Ace of Spades directory it should overwrite. I felt the first method was a lot simpler and more direct.

    As for the print screen issue, are you in a game when you are trying to use it and if so, does the game have focus? (meaning is it currently fullscreen)

    I wasn't sure if you were possbily alt-tabbed out of the game.

    I hate doing miniscule updates like, this, but I'd rather not jump to 1.4 for few small bug fixes lol

    Alright, here's v1.3.9.2, it contains the screenshot fix, as well as an aesthetic fix for Windows XP with the menubar.

    Download: http://nateshoffner.orgfree.com/projects/spadille

    Spadille v1.3.9.2
    - Fixed asthetic bug with menustrip in Windows XP
    - Fixed bug with screenshots not properly saving

    The download link on the website that hosts Spadille is giving me v.1.3.5 rather than v.1.3.9.2. So, I can't use it as every time I run it it asks to update it... which I am unable to do.
