You could do a small autoit-script to close the MSG-BOx when it appears. The other choice would be to wait until Bashrat found the time and is willing to do this...

I couldn't appreciate it much either.
That's why I didn't finish it. Also, I think that we can live with the current solution until you have the time to do that.

Re: OPEN: Automatic download function for new/updated driverpacks (28 replies, posted in Feature Requests)
That's a great improvement already! When I tried to write an automatic update script yesterday, I realized that one can't view the contents of the directory where the driverpacks are stored to (http://www.thesneaky.com/DriverPacks/) and therefore didn't finish it. I have another idea on how to do that, but I don't do it for now as I don't know whether you would allow me to bypass the donate button .
BTW: I decided to donate in near future!

Re: OPEN: Automatic download function for new/updated driverpacks (28 replies, posted in Feature Requests)
you get to see the 'Donate' option much more!
Thats right, but Bash could still let the donate button appear within the GUI as soon as you start a download. However, if you ask me, it is not the right thing to accept the Terms of Use more than once a day either. I think he should put that button onto that page and let it appear once (and only once) before you can download any driverpack.
I only came up with the "automatic update" idea because it is a boring job to find the right files on his site and to move them to the right directory after download. I didn't never say that his donate button mustn't appear anymore, did I?
Edit: uh, a double negotiation in the last line. But I guess you will still get the meaning ;-)

Topic: OPEN: Automatic download function for new/updated driverpacks (28 replies, posted in Feature Requests)
Hi Bashrat,
First of all, I want you to know that your driverpacks are very useful and therefore save a lot of my time everyday.
I don't know if you had this topic before, because I am unable to search MSFN, so please don't beat me if I missed something .
Now let me ask my question, although it should be obvious from the topic title:
What about integrating an automatic download function for new/updated driverpacks, so that you don't have to do that manually? I'm sure that this would save people a lot of time and you a lot of headaches because someone uses an outdated version and complains about a bug that you fixed already.
I hope to hear from you,
mkp
