Suggestion: READMe labeling for mass downloaders

<< < (2/7) > >>

Zazazu:
I always look up new hacks before I download them.  ::)

Sivany:
The hacks here are always zipped so even if you download a bunch at the same time it's only one extra double click to open the zip file once you've downloaded it and read the manual. That way you can still unzip the whole lot at once (to save on copying and pasting) but you've already read the manual so it doesn't matter if it's overwritten. Or you could rename them yourself before unzipping them to the destination folder.

I know this doesn't work for rar folders though sadly.

morriganrant:
Eh, I will either get the directors cut and pull the ones I do not want. In which case I know what I am getting obviously, or I will download the files separately and open the rar, pull out the readme, rename it and then pull the other file out. Long, but does what I need.

kuronue:
I keep the zips in a big folder someplace, in case I ever need to RTFM

jolrei:
I'm with Morriganrant - hacks tend to be "load and forget" files.  Either I get a director's cut and know what I'm getting ahead of time, making a manual/rtfm file superfluous, or I'm looking for an individual mod, which means I would read the readme/rtfm before installing.  In any case, I would never want to download the rtfm file for a mod into the Downloads directory.  Clutter.
