File folder back to outside MODS folder?!? - Guest - 04.05.2008

I see a post, that was locked (i don't know why) that says to leave files folder outside the MODS folder. Originally, I think we were told to move it inside and possibly rename it etc. NOW IT SEEMS TO BE THAT THIS FOLDER NEEDS TO BE OUTSIDE THE MODS FOLDER AGAIN.

?? CAN WE JUST MOVE IT BACK OUTSIDE ??!!

With the advent of the new AC installer, this hasn't really been addressed. Or has it?

Thanks

The original IL2 'files' folder should NOT be moved from its location OUTSIDE the MODS folder!

I think the folder you are thinking of was the original MODS folder before the wrapper was released, which you should have renamed something like 'zzz_mods' - this should contain all the pre-wrapper files and should be IN the MODS folder.

Hope this helps,

POMAK

from sticky above :

All new mods go into the 'MODS' folder but leave all the older files within the 'files' folder Dont move them ! if you do this it will mess up future installs of mods / updates.
