We did it. After a lot of all-nighters, VMD is ready to roll in time for april. Report any bugs to the forum, as this is the first release.

NOTE: False positives with AV's are known to occur with the installer, but feel free to use as much caution as you feel comfortable with.
UPDATE: A manual version was flown briefly, and then trashed. Turns out this install can be manually installed in case of emergencies!
For any having issues, here's the instructions:
1. Unzip files so you have access to the folders themselves.
2. Copy Help, System, VMDMaps, and VMD to your DeusEx install directory. For CD users, this is C\DeusEx by default. For steam users, this is C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\Common\DeusEx by default.
2b. If any conflicts arise in System, do not override non-VMD related files (assuming you'd even be installing over a previous version)
3. Find VMD.exe in your DeusEx\System directory (freshly inserted) and make a desktop shortcut.
3b. Alternatively, add a custom shortcut on steam by going to "Games" > "Add a non-steam game to my library" and finding the VMD.exe in your DeusEx\System and adding it by hand.
4. Launch VMD.exe and play. It runs on the "Launch" EXE and does not need to be overriden by Kentie's or some such.
4b. If you insist on installing Kentie's to run VMD, make sure it's named VMD.exe (back up the old one just in case) and have run VMD.exe at least once before doing so.
