Hi guys. I fixed the crash when reordering presets on Windows 11. Sorry it took so long.

That's gonna be very difficult to fix, because it's the result of how i update the list from the directory. I don't know if i'll ever be able to fix this.
Right now i can only suggest you to organize your config files by preset names by using the "Use preset name" feature at the "Data directories" tab, so that your list is not so large.

Ok, that should be easy.

Today I found out you can copy and paste mods from one list to another. This launcher is the best ever!

That was one of my requests on github lol, I'm SO glad that got implemented. I have a bunch more good feature requests I'll drop there soon and we'll see what happens.

Youda0008 is a total legend! DoomRunner is king!

DoomRunner truly is the best launcher to use in 2025. It's been extremely invaluable for testing and debugging purposes, for me. Good work, Youda0008.

In the process of testing some stuff while logging more feature requests for DoomRunner on github I found out that you can also paste the mods into a mod bundle which is super useful for rapidly converting existing mods into bundles.

If you don't know what bundles are they are basically a way to update the same mods in other presets at the same time without having to manually add it or copy paste it to each preset. So for example: You use a version of gearbox and then gzdoom gets a security update and the old version no longer works: you just update the bundle file with the new version of gearbox and every mod preset using that bundle is now on the working version. Awesome isn't it!

Glad to see my suggestion made it in. Mod bundles are incredibly useful. Now I can mix and match with less work in between.

Excellent work Youda.
