Which is what I did by the way..
I want to know if it's better to put it back where it was in the root directory and just change it back to 'files' again... I'm getting pretty confused here..
new wrapper has been designed to read (load) "MODS" folder first ( sub-folders:alphabetically ) and "FILES" folder secondly .... So if you put your "FILES" folder into "MODS" folder and rename it to be last one , it is the same as if you leave it where it was regarding loading order .
If you have two identical files ( game system wisely ) wrapper will load first one only !
by game system wise i mean right path for files .
So if you have :
mods\mapmods\maps\ Hawaii\ load.ini
and:
files\maps\ Hawaii\ load.ini
WRAPPER WILL LOAD ONLY : mods\mapmods\maps\ Hawaii\ load.ini
MAKE SURE THAT ALL MAP MODS GO INTO MODS\MAPMODS\ FOLDER AND NOT JUST IN MODS FOLDER!!!!
I strongly recommend switching to new wrapper ASAP !
