Version 0.3 README
========================================================

Thank you for choosing fmXML!

This is a readme file for a simple program for creating
config.xml files for FM 2005. This readme file contains 
short manual how to use this program to create these 
"nice" config.xml files.

I N S T R U C T I O N S:

1. Download this program
2. Install it
3. Run it

	(This was the simple part)

4. Now you should see small window with an Edit box, 
some buttons, checkboxes and radio buttons

5. First you have to choose working directory. You can
get it in several ways:
	- Use Browse button
	- Type it or paste from clipboard
	- Drag the directory on fmXML window (my preffered)
	
6. Next - choose Action from these 2 options:
	- Make config.xml file
		Use this if you have made faces/logos/kits for 
		some players/clubs/competitions
	- Translate file names to IDs
		Use this if you have downloaded a face pack which
		contains files, named as player real name, not ID,
		but you want to copy them in another folder (to
		avoud duplicates or whatever another reason).
		This works with face/logo packs, but not with kits
		(may be implemented later)

7. Object - choose one
	- faces - for player/coach faces
	- kits - for club/nation kits
	- nation logos - for national FA logos
	- competition logos - for competition logos
	- club logos - for (surprise) club logos
	
8. Options
	- All filenames are IDs
		If filenames of these graphics already are 
		resource ID numbers (which you can find in FM 
		2005 using option to show unique IDs), you can 
		tick this checkbox. Use this only if filenames 
		ARE IDs. If they are not, you will end up with 
		config.xml files with IDs as 0 and they will not
		work in the game.
		
		If you do not tick this checkbox, new dialog 
		will pop up, asking you for resource ID for each 
		file. Find appropriate ID and insert it. For kits
		there are more options.
		

	- Process dragged folders
		This lets you speed up some things. If ticked, 
		you can drag multiple folders on fmXML window to 
		process them as a batch. N!B! you can not change 
		graphics type in batch mode. So ensure that all 
		files in these folders are from the same type.
		
9. GO button starts the job (in batch mode it starts 
automatically).

11. Edit XML
It is a simple config.xml file viewer/editor. It is very 
simple, but can be useful. There is an issue that you can 
use TAB key normally. To get a TAB symbol, use Ctrl+TAB.

12. When the work is done, click Close. There is no surprise 
that it just quits program :)
And remember, when the work is done, share it with others.
