1  Awesomeware / The Armory / Updated Hack Descriptions on: 2009 February 15, 18:50:42
Because I had to do a complete reformatting of my hard drive (don't ask  Angry ), I needed to reinstall my AL DC, so I went hunting for an updated RATFM.  And 'cause I'm a reasonably nice person and I went to a lot of work to put this together, I thought I might as well share.  If it's helpful to anyone else to use, great.  If not, the mods can delete it and it won't hurt my feelings one bit.

Please note a few things:
1.  To save space (and because I own all the EPs and SPs and didn't really plan on sharing this file when I started), I took out the verbage that talks about compatibility.  So if you don't have all the EPs and SPs and you have a question about whether the mod will work in your game, please go look it up.  Don't ask me, 'cause I don't know and I'm not looking it up for you.
2.  All I did to create this file was to take the existing FT_RATFM file, remove all the dead mods and add in the new ones.  So excepting the verbage on the mods I added, I take no credit or blame for work that was already done.
3.  All the descriptions I used for the updated mods came directly from the forum (yes, "Search" is your friend!).
4.  I took out the language that indicated the mod was a "DC exclusive", because this is labeled as the RATFM for the DC file (duh!).

Go ye and download if you wish Smiley

*_3D.package files in EAxian skins contain mesh and textures. In most cases they're essential.


 Roll Eyes I discovered this to be true (after a second cup of coffee) when I installed the EP5 halter swimsuit and it would not work without the accompanying 3D.package.  I didn't figure you'd stick unnecessary files in the downloads, which I why I was confused as to why the first one I tried was apparently not needed.  No problem--I'll just create a sub-folder and include them all together.  Thanks Smiley

*is now thinking about a third cup of coffee, and is glad she didn't ask why the thumbnails weren't showing up properly before she thought to delete the caches... Embarrassed *

What exactly is the function of the "*_3D.package" files that come with the clothing (such as the FT exercise outfits)?  Since the clothing shows up in CAS when I omit them from the Downloads folder, I assume they're not essential.  Why are they included with the files, and what exactly do they do?

*is still only on her first cup of coffee, and hopes she's not asking something stupid in her caffeine-deprived morning haze...*

I ran HCDU this morning and received this error message:

*** POSSIBLE CONFLICT DETECTED ***
File Type: BHAV
Procedure Name: Sub - Move If Standing On Driveway
Group ID: 0x7F4EA230
Instance ID: 0x00002149
Packages Containing This Procedure:
\downloads\MATY\MATY_JMP_Modification_AntiWatchOut.package
\downloads\MATY\MATY_JMP_Modification_NoDrivewayShuffle.package
 
I do have the latest update to AntiWatchOut (posted Nov. 9), and had not received this message prior to that update.  Has the update eliminated the need for NoDrivewayShuffle?
