There is just one minor problem. Shadow Warrior Twin Dragon's music is disabled by default, no biggy
since I can turn it back on from the game's sound options menu. Every time I start TD though, it's disabled.
Thanks for the great work so far, because of your launchers I'm now able to enjoy Duke Assault, and my other addon's!

Thanks, I will check that out.
I Check out the problem with Twin Dragon's music is disabled by default. It seems to be disabled even in the GOG version as well.
I would have to say it was disabled by Level Infinity team for some reason.

That's pretty unusual. Think you can add a tick box for enabling music for TD itself?
Kinda like alternative options you made for the Duke Nukem Launcher that enabled special menus and selection of a different set of episodes.
That way, we can keep the original setting itself.

Already tried. You can only enable it in game. If you change music to on (MUSIC = 1) in SW.CFG it has no affect at all.
*** ON DIFFERENT SHADOW WARRIOR VERSIONS ***
Twin Dragon includes a modified sw.exe file which displays the Twin Dragon
episode and level names. This sw.exe file is for Shadow Warrior version 1.2.
It's quite possible that you have a different Shadow Warrior version, for
example the 3dfx version. If you want to use your own Shadow Warrior version
instead of the Twin Dragon version, then you will have to copy sw.exe from
the backup subdirectory DRAGONBU to the Shadow Warrior directory, thus
replacing our sw.exe file. However, this will mean that the full episode name
won't be "Twin Dragon", instead it will be the original name "Code Of Honor".
The level names will also be the same as the original Shadow Warrior levels.
I rename the SW.exe that came with Twin Dragon to Tdragon.exe and Tdragon.exe to Tdragon.old. The Original Tdragon.exe plays a Logo Intro then launches Sw.exe.
The Launcher will always launch the Tdragon.exe file.

Learn something new everyday. I think I will stick with the conventional setup. My version of Shadow Warrior is the Gog classic complete. But thanks to the community on their forums. Someone managed to repair the issues with Wanton Destruction's difficulty levels w/ the flagged enemies issue and missing entities with a revised GRP for that expansion. Also including a secret fix to Twin Dragon in the forum of a single map replacement. I'd recommend you check out this post and see if it's worth collaborating with that fellow and adding to your SW launcher. http://www.gog.com/f...destruction_fix I can confirm these fixes work, but you might want to see for yourself. Honestly, I'm kinda glad I ditched the Redux and Megaton versions for your launchers. They tend to have a few bugs they need to fix that they still haven't gotten around to...
