RFA support #25

@Rast1234

Description

@Rast1234

Add Red Faction: Armageddon support for existing mods and upcoming community patch

Things to implement

  • vpp file tools. format is different from RFGR, see gibbed's SR3 tools
  • file lists, hashes, paths, savegame locations
  • build lego protagonist
  • create savegame backup every time game is launched (RFA corrupts it frequently)

Investigate

  • codebase impact. RFA will not need as many features and will not be supported as much. how many if-else forks do i need? don't want to make abstraction layers, libs, whatever
  • peg files may be different from RFGR, but can just use manually prepared files
  • game versions: steam, GOG, publicbeta. differences in stability and multiplayer. release ""re-enabler" style mods to switch between them, using as little files as possible

Presentation

  • release separately or keep everything as single app? users may be confused
  • keep same codebase or separate into repos? don't want to add if-else cruft, but don't want to make fixes twice
  • try rufus-style .exe name switch if i keep it as single app
  • separate name for new app, or keep it under one brand?
