Do I have to put the download in all the expansion folders?

The old method, which Pescado still uses and obviously Jolrei does too, requires a .dll in each game/bin. I find this method works and have never seen the need to change. The new method uses the Microsoftian garbage pit known as 'My Documents'.


Actually, ever since the patching method changed to updating the base game only, using the old method on the base game folder is enough for mods to work, there's no need to "install" the framework on every EP/SP folder anymore.

I find I have to drop the .dll into every game/bin folder or the new expansion is not recognised for booting without a CD. It's little enough to do.

To the OP, there are parts of the framework that have to be loaded into each EP directory you have.


This was once true, but I don't believe it is any longer.


On the other hand, doing it seems to work, and does not seem to hurt.  In any case, that point is academic, since AM works in our games and not in the OP's game.  Therefore, the problem is with either a) the OP's installation of the game; or b) the OP's ability to follow directions on how to install files.

Either is possible, if you knew my downloads well enough. It depends on a lot of different factors... Well, seeing as I also managed to some how fatally glitch my family... Still. I'll try putting it into all of the expansions.

I wonder if the OP only installed the config file and not the AM file.

I'm pretty sure I downloaded both... I have aweconf.package and framework.zip in my downloads... But, what the hell do I know?

No, thankyou, I can't be bothered.

I'm depressed because the Ro-Ho was right. I'm sure we used to get a better brand of idiot around here.

My apologies. I should have given my typical disclaimer.

If you are fully patched only the base game needs the framework. That's I have it for Awesomemod, and it works just fine.

While you've mentioned it.. I don't quite think I'm fully patched, though it hasn't complained to me in a while. All it ever does is whine that I'm not logged in, but... Technically, I can't log in.. Meh. I'll try updating it too. I usually don't, since I remember a time that an update completely destroyed most mods that people had downloaded.

Aha, that's good to know. I stand corrected.

aweconf.package is the tuning file for the mod. Go back to the DL thread and get the rest.

You will need to be fully patched to use AM, though.
