    I don't know if there's already an application with the name.. If so, or if someone has a better name for it, I'm open.

    Anyway, I've combined the uninstaller with a way to display other information. Attached are some newer screen shots...

    If there's anything else someone thinks should be added, please feel free to say so.

    Update: Version 1.2

    Integrated my old Markup Calculator, using just one markup value (since most people are using just week, anyway). You can access the tools either by clicking the buttons or right-clicking the window itself.

    Update: Version 1.5

    I've added several new options and updated others. There's now a menu in addition to the buttons, it tries to detect EU on startup and, if not found, provides the option to download and install the game. Also included an option to download and install Entropia Tracker. Because Tracker is zipped, I've included an Unzip utility that it uses to extract the Tracker archive. Because of that, you can either use the setup program or the zip file into its own directory.

    Also added:
    -About box
    -List of planets marked as downloaded (or to be downloaded) with their priority
    -Install Info now has last planet visited with a refresh button (for when traveling) Not updated to include Cyrene, ROCKtropia, or Next Island

    OP has been updated. :)

    Updated to include the other three planets. A society member went flying through space to check each planet for me.

    Still looking for ways to improve it, so please feel free. :)

    Updated to version 1.6.

    Apparently there would be an unhandled exception when a player had the starter areas downloaded, too. So that should be fixed, now.

    Also a few cosmetic adjustments to the installation info page, making it a bit bigger. Also made the planet listing page a little bigger.

    OP updated. Still looking for feedback, too.

    Not sure there was really enough change to warrant 1.7, but it is anyway.. :p

    Version 1.7 now has links to bring up several player-run wikis as well as official forums.

    Version 1.8 includes new independent cleaner for log files (including saving current logs) and dynamic content (in the event you want to cut down the space usage on your computer and change what planets are downloaded).

    Also fixed the upgrade setup so it actually works.

    I know it's been a while, but I think I'm just about ready to post the new version of Entropia Tools. I've actually got the auto-updater working now. This will also work for the Skill Scanner.

    Now that I know problem with the XP builds, I think I may be able to fix it so that one executable works on XP as well as Vista/7. I'll try to get it ready by the end of the week.

    I was closer than I thought.. :p

    Version 2.0 officially released today.

    Interface has undergone some changes, been re-arranged a bit, and it includes an auto-updater.

    Version 2.1 released. May require a full package download to take full advantage. Primarily, I've updated and improved the auto-update procedure in order to accommodate future update possibilities.

    The updater will also now restart Entropia Tools.
