PowerVR version would need an SGL wrapper first. Iirc this same configuration would work till the GDI part.

does the gui installer no longer work? I tried it so many times with different ver. of mech2, it always close itself when it to powershell window but it only last like a sec. using original OP installer worked fine.

Not sure.
Personally I think the one in my sig is complete enough, tested enough and simple enough that it doesn't really need a gui.
It's nice, of course.

I had some half finished rewrites too. The problem is that the time investment for neat code and a better ini file/error handling is far higher than the 2 minutes anyone will actually use it for - the majority of which is just waiting for the file copy.
