Comrade_Blabsky -> Current Modswap Limitation (4/22/2007 9:28:42 PM)

That is, it doesn't handle what we call submods. Submods take advantage of most of the files in a mod, while changing small portions for a particular effect. In CC3 Configuration Manager, changes dependant on a mod could easily be handled as each "package" was in a separate folder, where the "org" files could be resident. In Cross of Iron Modswap, there seems to be one folder as backup, with the files not being renamed in any way. So as the submod is installed, it overwrites the stock backups, and as it is uninstalled it moves those files back in while leaving the backup empty. Uninstalling the mod therefore leaves files missing in the stock game. So this serves as a heads-up for current users. I'm pretty sure an Infantry version of the Vietnam mod will be released as a stand-alone mod. It may also be useful for ppl to have an option for simple file transfer instructions if dl size is an issue.
