JamesRook Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 If I downloaded and installed a mod, say it's version 4 of the mod and then installed an option for the mod the author has included, if the mod is then updated to version 5 should I keep the option or discard it? I seldom see any info on the mod page about the optional files or patches. In addition, if a different mod has patches to get the two to work together, will the update break them?

Hanaisse Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 1 - If the author is including additional optional files for their mod they are responsibile to make sure those options still work when the main file is updated. If the updated main file now includes what the optional file was then the author should be making that clear and you can remove the optional file. 2 - Patches could possibly break or be fine depending on the changes in the update of the original mod. It's the responsibility of the patch author to check that. In other words, when in doubt, ask the authors on their mod page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
