As requested I am posting detailed instructions for making mods 'Compatible' with the ModLauncher to be included on the new SE:IV GOLD.
Firstly, there is only one file that needs to be created in addition to your regular mod files.
This file merely contains information about your mod, the author, and other things.
It should be named 'modinfo.txt' and should reside in the ROOT of your mod's directory.
For example, if you've just made Pirates'n'Nomads but want to create a modinfo.txt so the mod can be used with the modlauncher you would go into your SEIV directory, then into your Pirates'n'Nomads Directory (or whatever it's called) and create it there.
The contents of the ModInfo.txt should be as follows (note: linenumber || item || comment): -
The links in my signature will let you download the mod launcher so you can a. use it; and b. test your modinfo.txt.
If you have any problems with this don't hesitate to contact me on
ModLauncher@Matryx.org.uk
Edit: should be more readable now and not Uber-Wide
Edit2: Oh, it's spelt MATRYX

With a 'Y'
