As per this thread: http://www.dxx-rebirth.com/frm/index.php/topic,2098.0.html

Possibly get the location of Vertigo from the selected directory for Descent 2 instead of the default.

I'm not sure if this is possible due to licensing issues, but if it is, I'd love to have this bundled as an option.

Instead of having a location selection, auto-detect and then allow the user to change it if they want.

Instead of manually specifying each possible file location in the file list, have DescentOne/DescentTwo functions locate the files based on fileexists checks.

Make sure the auto-added paths include the full path.

These are stored in descent.hi in the main directory.

It'd be really nice if there was a way to automatically include the mac version of the data (via a binary patch, or otherwise) as well as including the mac data AddOns so everyone can have the high-resolution cockpit, etc. that comes with it.

When updating the installer, the new one should be downloaded to the same location as the current installer, and then the current installer deleted.

I need to go through the source file and improve comments, mainly:

1. Remove multi-location comments since many of these are outdated now, and all of them are difficult to read.
2. Make sure every if string has a comment explaining what it does, since many of them are very long and convoluted
