Hi all,
After we have downloaded our files and start installing them into our game, I think a few of us comes across a few problems, sometimes when we unzip them they do not create the folders as we would expect them too, unziping the files in diffrent ways produce diffrent results.
I dont now how many have use the batch files I have included in the magazine, but as an extention to the magazine I and thinking of doing a paid content on modding the game and will have the batch files pre made to make installing the addons easier etc, like a self installer after you have downloaded the files and unziped them.What do you think.

kool.

I know some will like that. myself i don't like the self installers. But there are those that do. I know for large installs that would be the best way.
 
Hi ,
You will still need to download all the files, follow information in a magazine, when you set it up. you will have a self installing backup, you then can add to the game with other addon backups so if you have to reinstall just a few clicks and back to square one, takes alot of work out of reinstalling.
Just easy file swapping with files that resides outside the main game Takes a bit of time to start, saves time in the long run.
