Well, I think you are interested in NPatch Autumn Edition status.
Two secret features of NPAE already done!
This is rather interesting and it already wished by a lot of people.
Now I working on multi-mod support.
Few words about it. It designed to run mods from different folders without any delete/copy/paste operations!
So you can store you collections of mods as subfolders in folder and put start.bat file in each folder.
Multi-mod feature activated via -MOD command switch:

Yuri.exe -MOD:F:\YRMods\MO20

also you can use relative paths.
For different tools NPAE will store location to registry, so any program can locate main NPatch directory.
Standard HKLM\Westwood\Yuri's Revenge key isn't good because you can have more than one YR directory or have TFD disk.
So you can include with mod your own launcher, which will read this key and launch YR with -MOD parameter.
Yes, after this feature I will implement new deploy logic.

NPAE will be released during this month, so wait!
Two surprise in NPAE won't be the last NPAE surprise, I think

At the end, I show a program for TD/RA cursors.
It created by me for personal use, but now I show it for community.
Maybe somebody find it useful.

VK, I cann't understand how you can have a life, make tools and work on NPAE at the same time! ANd is there any preview of some features?

Oh, and my hart stoped for a sec when I read the news!

Heh, Ultraq over at CNC Techcenter already made tools for the RA and TD mouse cursor.

In fact, th 2 mouse cursors are simply in Dune II SHP format, so he wrote some simple convertors to convert between TD and D2 SHP format. This is in fact more useful because it actually allows you to mod the mouse cursors ingame instead of just extracting them.

It's good to see a progress report, and also good to know it should be coming out this month. I was thinking "If it doesn't come out within the next month and a half, it'll have to be called NPWE (NPatch Winter Edition).".
