So this is a program that automaticcly makes a meta for every recourse?

Yes.

But you need indicate scrips/files/...

Also i will update it and create dialog box with save folder.

So far, it is saved in the program folder.

Tried it out, good job.

However, few things I would like to suggest,

Info tag, when you leave a field empty, it shouldn't add it to the info tag.

All server/client fields should be a combobox, or whatever it's called.

Also when you leave a path field empty, shouldn't work, instead output an error message or something.

Kenix, you should update this tool to grab files from a resource's folder automatically and have it update the meta.xml automatically. So if I were to place 20 images inside the folder, the meta.xml gets updated automatically. I'm not sure if this works through Windows Explorer, but you could make your own explorer to make it possible. Or perhaps something where you have to drag the files on top of a meta.xml.

Good idea bro. Yes, it's needed. I think in the future i will write a new Meta generator 1.4, but i think i can make it more better than what you said.

Features:

- Input path: Resource path to generate all files automaticly.

- Use gridlist to store all lines.

-- Button: Mark as cache="false"

-- Combobox: Select server/client/shared side.

- Settings:

-- Use Folder side preifx automaticly. For example Server/Script.lua - server side, if you don't want to mark all scripts.

--- Use Cache="false" to all client side scripts.

- Output file path: Generate new meta.xml

Guys, you can discuss about this. If you wanna more new features.

Add a button in one or both of these menu's, followed by a small popup asking whether you want to add the contents of the current folder to the meta.xml with these options: 'Yes', 'No' or 'Change settings' (or have the settings on the sides). If you hit Yes then no questions asked, the meta.xml file has been updated using the default settings. Preferably an option to bypass the whole popup window so everything goes automatically. If it's done this way, then this will become a very viable tool, even for the smallest of scripts. Otherwise not many people will go through the effort of having to load up the tool elsewhere and copy and paste the path of their resource folder and what not. Just a way to get the entire folder's content into a meta file with one or two clicks is what most people need anyway, the options to change settings is just an extra and should be able to be skipped.

By default all files should come out like this:

Taking into account your idea about client and server folders:

Also be sure to take into account other folders:

If there's a meta.xml already in place, then the tool should only add to it when possible and not replace it.
