    Depends what files you've modded. Actually... just about every file was updated in v1.3, so you'll probably lose everything.

    And what you don't lose could very well be incompatible.

    Stuie, tell him the truth, He's Screwed! lol

    most people edit atleast the units file etc, so there is no way his changes will be there after the patch.

    I figured text entries would be lost but i dont think .cas files and textures would be lost. I just want to make sure so that i know exactly what ill have to backup.

    gaah! can't get the 1.3 patch to install onto a fresh copy of RTW. I haven't heard anyone else have the problem so it must just be my set up... sigh.

    Textures and Cas files will not be lost in a patch update, only files updated in the patch, just as if you copied a folder into a parent folder which had another folder with the same name (if that makes sense to you).
