Default Re: A Desperate Plea to MM for Better Mod Support

As far as I know the path.txt is only for modified files in the Data directory. A lot of things I modify are in the \pictures\races folder and also the AI folder so the path.txt doesn't help. I have 3 full installs of the game on my HD now 2 mods and the as patched 1.19 unmodified Version. The Data files if modified significantly will need to be addressed in the races folders to implement the changes or else the AI won't be able to utilize some of the changes. Especially if you create new technologies to research or new components to put on the ships or just change the components enough that the designs need to be modified.

Speaking of mods I was trying to modify the General.txt files for the races to min/max some of the races and it seems that they will ignore any numbers under 100 for their racial traits. Is there a way around this or am I just out of luck trying to give the AI a bonus to racial picks the way humans can?
