Here it is at last, first release of new and improved version of System Shock 2 Mod Manager by me.
It's based on 1.10-version of source code and there is few new features added on it.
The new features are in this version (0.0.1):
* Feature to register multiple mods at once. Go to File->Register Mods... and select which mods you want to register with it.
* Added "Create New Set"-button to savegame set-dialog.
* Added support to 7zip format.
* Added feature to register lgvid.ax automatically whenever program is started. There is option to turn this off.
It's in beta phase and you can get it at here : (

Just BUMP!
You can get SS2MM from my webpage, too.

Unfortunately that link is obsolete now. Always get latest version from SBF for now on.
I'm planning something new for my site, so be prepared that old one will disappear soon.

* Added option to set compression levels for mod repacking.
* Added .bnd-file extension to special list, so manager recognizes them and puts them under MODS-folder.
* Now you can install latest version of manager over previously installed one. When it detects previously installed manager, it asks permission to continue installation.
* Now you can do reinstall without a fear of losing previous settings.
* Now you can fix easily that infamous Use-Mode bug which occurs when user rebinds game keybidings, by clicking on Tools menu and selecting "Fix Use-Mode keybind file (user2.bnd)"-menu item. See this link for more information about this bug : (
http://www.strangebedfellows.de/index.php/topic,78.0.html) This bug only occurs under Windows NT-based operating systems (Windows 2000/XP/Vista).
* Fixed the problem where .dif files would override a custom hydro2.mis or shodan.mis file
* Lots of other improvements.

* Fixed bug when manager refused to start after installation under Windows XP. This even happened under Windows 2000 with SP4, too. And it wasn't caused by Service Packs, either.
* Manager is now compiled into Inno Setup package which allows much easier and cleanier installation process.
Open SS2MM_1.10_Beta_Build_x.x.x.x_installer.7z in 7-Zip or other archive program which supports .7z format and doubleclick on setup-ss2mm.exe-file to start installation process.
* SS2MM_1.10_Beta_Build_x.x.x.x_bin.7z-file contains manager and all its support files for those who likes messing with plain archives.

* Updated DelZip179.dll to version 1.79.11.3.
* Updated 7za.dll to version 4.63.0.0.
* Updated unrar.dll to version 3.80.100.259.
* Now it's much easier to add mods (by using File->Add mods menu) without need to change mod archive file extension to .ss2mod.
However it's recommended to do it anyway so manager can install mods by clicking on them.
* Now manager always applies archive file attribute to all extracted mod files.
This removes certain bug when author of the mod have somehow applied read only file attribute on certain important files and manager refuses to copy/move them.
* Minor tweaking made to uninstallation code so it removes more files when Clean Up is checked in uninstallation dialog.
