Don't forget an uninstaller... I don't usually keep my downloaded maps for very long...

I don't know how to do an un-installer, sorry. By the by, the installers we will be doing are for compilations.

I guess later when the directory structure improves (the update did add a mods folder) with further game versions - deleting a mod would be a mere mater of removing its folder from MODS, like in Ghost Recon.

Any guesses as to how the mod folder would work? I'm thinking that there will be some way to package the files as .mod files or something similar and they will just be loaded together instead of having to add in things to seperate folders and such.

I have tried adding maps using the Mods folder and the maps do not show up. I am still trying to see if I have missed something which is causing the maps not to show up.

What if you tried taking apart the RavenShield.mod file and see how they packaged it?
Kinda like reverse engineering I guess.

[Monoman]

The RavenShield.mod file is just a text file. I tried just duplicating the file and editing it for a map but the map doesn't show up ingame. I think I am either overlooking another file used with the .mod file or I'm editing the wrong stuff in the .mod file.
