That's pretty spiffy. I recognize the font from starcraft.

Sorry, thats really ugly Corsix :( It's not clean, not nice and has non good layout. It's only critic, not more! Sorry.

Oozish - why can't you get the current WA AI build working in your WA?

Corsix - I know we need to update the Grfx panel at some point. We do need a change at some point. Any other new features of the updated installer? We should use a different font then Starcraft but I'm sure what you have demoed is a placeholder. :lol: Still.. need a refreshing look and you've done well showing us something to aim for.

Content of dowai.module was listed in the link I gave you (see above). You put dowai.module into your WA main folder.

Yes.. since we've moved on from v1.40.. PLEASE put in Winter Assault! There should be no confusion - although its inevitable. :(

A Disclaimer
A Brief rundown of what the AI Mod does
ChangeLog perhaps since v1.4

Those are just info panels.

Also, how to integrate the panels?

Please don't delay the release because the installer has to be beautified.
