A graphical front end for WeiDU Mods.
WeiDU Install Tool is a graphical front end for the WeiDU command line tool to install modifications for Infinity Engine games, such as Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale or Planescape Torment. The front end is written in Java and uses the JavaFX framework to provide a modern UI.
The tool offers all the functionality of the WeiDU command line interpreter as well as many usability improvements and convenience features to help with the mod installation task. It is not intended to be a full-fledged mod manager like Project Infinity.
Features
Tp2 Mod File Association
The installed version of WeiDU Install Tool is automatically associated* with tp2 mod files which allows you to quickly and conveniently install mods from the file manager without having to deal with setup executables or the command line.
* Not available on macOS.
Drag and Drop Support
This feature allows you to drop tp2 files or the mod folders themselves onto an open WeiDU Install Tool instance to initiate the mod installation process if no other mod is currently being installed.
Detailed Mod Information
The application provides information about the currently installed mod to get a detailed overview about the purpose of the mod and available installation options. Available mod components are presented in a tree-like structure. They can be shown in any of the available mod languages and optionally filtered by component groups. A separate section provides more general information about the mod which includes the mod name and author, a short summary of the mod content, as well as links to the mod's homepage, readme and download location, and optional dependencies.
