anguis 4 Posted March 27, 2008 Hi, folks - I did a search in this forum and did not find any info on this: Is it problematic to have duplicate files in the addons directories of various mods? For example, having the same file in res\addons and @ecp\addons Any other scenarios in which having duplicate files would cause problems? Thanks in advance for the help/info!

SeppSchrot 0 Posted March 27, 2008 Hello, no, it's no problem as long as they have same content. Problems start when you have for example two different versions of an addon and you start both of them because you can't tell one apart from the other. That said I discourage you from putting anything non-official in the res folder. One folder for one mod and only start the ones you actually want to play. No rule without exception though: You should make an separate island folder which you will load as well most of the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
anguis 4 Posted March 27, 2008 Thanks, Sepp - your advice regarding islands actually addresses what prompted my question! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
