I think that what Thomas meant, and what I already thought, is that the hack that mods TDD into Justine is applied by the launcher. I've found out 2 things to back this up.

1) Imagine a program that displays a splash screen (the amnesia logo and rose image) and a few buttons and provides a few options and shortcuts to other exes when you hit the buttons. That program is going to be 200 maybe 300 Kb tops. Launcher.exe is 2.6 Mb. Amnesia.exe is only 1.1 Mb more than that. Launcher.exe is more than just a menu.

2) I used Process Explorer to look at the strings in Launcher.exe (same as I did with Amnesia.exe mentioned in the spoiler tags above). The launcher does indeed call on config/ptest_main_init.cfg, but not with any other arguments. What it does have is a whole bunch of code and comments that are very similar to those in Amnesia.exe.

I'm guessing that the bulk of the 2.6 Mb launcher is the ptest hack.

In short, it's possible but not, I believe, within the scope of a mod, unless you are FG.
