Is FrameworkInstaller Compatible with Awesomemod?

(1/3) > >>

Sgloomi:
After being told, in no uncertain terms, that my method of installing CC and Mods with the MTS FrameworkInstaller was wrong, I followed the instructions for manually installing the Framework downloaded from MATY.

After a few days play, I see no apparent difference - everything worked more or less okay before, everything works more or less okay now - so my question is: would it be a total no-no to revert to the one-click convenience of FrameworkInstaller? Does the .dll or whatever else installed by the now-defunct Helper Monkey, or in the MATY Framework, contain things that specifically help the game mesh with Aswsomemod?

I realise I'm risking a beatdown for asking something Bleeding Obvious That Everybody Knows, but in the end I'd rather ask than just think I know everything and assume.

Why is it so hard to drag files into a folder yourself? Put a freaking shortcut on your desktop to your mods folder if you are so lazy, ffs.

Um. That's exactly what I did. Because that's what you do when you use FrameworkInstaller.

So, is FrameworkInstaller compatible with Awesomemod or not?

Thirdo:
...Seriously? What, exactly do you think the famework installer dose? What function do you think it has that could possibly effect the Awesome Mod? Or any mod for that matter.

Well, I thought that what the Frameworker Installer did was let you:

1) Install a Framework with one click.
2) Whack all your cc/mod packages in the 'Packages' folder it generates for the current iteration of your game.
3) Bish-bash-bosh.

When I mentioned doing that with no real problems, however, I was told by the single most important person on this Forum that this was wrong. So I can only assume, not being technically-minded in any way, that there's some special sauce in the files manually downloaded from MATY and manually installed that don't occur with FrameworkInstall.

I was simply yes/no asking if that was the case, rather than just arrogantly assuming I knew better and thinking my utterly non-technical opinion must be right.
