What files in mod folder?

Verigen · #1 October 7th, 2002, 07:04 AM

I've been playing SE for eons but I'm relitively new to modding. I need to know what files need to go into the mod folder if anyone cares to help. Thanks in advance!

All the files that are found in the normal SE4 data directory must be present in [Your Mod Folder] / Data directory.

Happy Modding!

Other files can be added as needed, i.e., a new planet image would be placed in [Your Mod Folder] / Pictures / Planets.

so will the game go to the original files for anything other than the data folder if it doesn't find it in the mod directory?

One Last question. Is there any way to eliminate maintanance costs completely as perhapse a racial trait?

Modified Maintenance Cost
Value1 = Percentage of normal maintenance (10% = 110% of normal, -10% = 90% or normal)
Value2 =

Try using this ability in RacialTraits.txt and set it to 25% which is equal to the default maintenance value in Settings.txt...I've never tried it, but it might work.
