This is specially dedicated to MagisterCultuum who has a lot of great ideas [and a ton of bad ones 
] for enhancing FFH2, the best mod there is.
This is a project of installator for Kaels Fall from Heaven 2.[Mods forum on Civfanaticks]
Err, almost right. This is a modification of the project to make an installation of any mod-mod based on an already installed mod installation.
Idea: The idea behind this project is to give this wonderful mod an installer that will actually make a correct shortcut on the desktop and find a right installation directory for the mod....and to bring mod mods to your computer safe and in a professional fashion
The original project can be found on this site under this address: http://forums.civfanatics.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=9292
The project files are buildable under Installjammer, an free, open source installation builder, an alternative to MSI and NIS installers.
API:
To build this project Installjammer can be downloaded from this site: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=148203&package_id=169359
The files were made under the 1.2.5 version! There is a newer beta version of the program but it is a beta so I have not tested it with that version.
Unfortunately version 1.2.5 has a bug with the preview like described in this thread of the support forums:
http://www.installjammer.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=139&p=598&hilit=Lwidget#p598
What needs to be changed before build:
Installjammer is writen in Tcl/Tk and can execute any Tcl/Tk scripts. I know, it is not Python but I have not found a python installation kit
[Tcl/Tk is very simple, IMO it is simpler than python]
This is only a project to build the installation. I did it for fun so no bad feelings if it stays only an 'art for art' project
@xienwolf: I just do not have time to follow all the mod mods on the forum so someone has to do it for me. If there are any problems then post in the forum thread I created or PM me.
Maintenance:
I frequently read the FFH2 forum so I will be able to maintenance the project for a while if there is an interest.
