The Mod User's Best Friend - the Mod-Switcher

Yes, that's what I'd go for. I've certainly used the Mod Switcher with Chiv with no trouble. Never tried it with RTR, but so long as you auto-install to an empty folder that should give you the Data folder you need to make the RMOD. Let me download it and have a look.

Oh, but just to be sure, make a copy of your Data file once you've installed the 1.2 patch. Just as a backup in case something goes wrong.

Right, well, I've downloaded RTR6 and I don't see anything that would stop it working as an RMOD. I can't test it unfortunately, so I can't say for sure, but it only has two files outside the data folder. One's a bat, that looks like it makes some back ups and the other is a suggested preference file. Obviously you can use whatever preference file you like.

Epistolary Richard,

Thanks for the time and effort that you have devoted to my problem. I believe you have shown me the way ahead, that will allow me to have both of these mods available within the Mod Switcher framework.

I now believe I have a good chance of success, and I will give the suggested process a try.

Thanks again for your time and consideration.

regards

sunray

Is it just me, or can't you download the mod switcher? The link doesn';t led me to a download screen, only giving me warnings on the webpage it takes me to.

Thank you

Thank you. Downloading.

I'm having the same problem-the link isn't working.

**Cormaeg** · 01-01-2007, 16:06

What if you need changed data in the bi folder also?

**Dol Guldur** · 01-01-2007, 16:47

Depends what it is - mostly you can copy the file over into your modfolder and edit (e.g. descr_mounts.txt for example).

Well, it would be the models_unit folder. A bunch of cas and tga.dds files. Wait-I think I already know the answer...you would have to add those files to your data/models_unit folder, and then go in and change all the routing for the models and textures in the descr_model_battle.txt? Ouch.
