Title: Re: Post your FreeSpace folder
Post by: Scotty on May 21, 2011, 11:23:30 pm: Why do you have shortcuts to programs you have in the same folder?

And why do you still have the BP files out of your blueplanet folder (or if they're in there already, why do you have more)?

EDIT: And what is the whole point of this?

look at all the old frakking builds

and what's with all the shortcuts

and why do your vp files have a wordpad icon

and why is homesick.vp in your main folder

and why is DEM.vp in your main folder

homesick and that booger500 campaign do not belong in the main folder

bluaaghaghaghghghhhhhhh *aneurysm*

Title: Re: Post your FreeSpace folder
Post by: Marcov on May 21, 2011, 11:33:13 pm: Pointing out people's mistakes is part of the fun (also, I made the shortcuts so I can use FRED with different mods. Isn't it how you make a Blue Planet mission and stuff? Otherwise, I don't really care).

So everyone, let's post our folders and let other people point out how idiotic we are in arranging files! :lol:
Title: Re: Post your FreeSpace folder
Post by: Shivan Hunter on May 21, 2011, 11:34:17 pm: FRED loads mods from your launcher6.ini (the ones you select in the launcher) now at 3.6.12.

[EDIT] frankly, DEM and Homesick don't edit anything IIRC, so they'd be fine in your main folder, even though doing that is a very bad habit. The bigger problem is that VP FILES have a NOTEPAD icon- were you opening them with notepad?

and if so, were you editing them?

and if so, STOP

Their own folder

But if I do, I'll have to select them from the Launcher, and the launcher doesn't recognize them as "Mods"?
Title: Re: Post your FreeSpace folder
Post by: General Battuta on May 22, 2011, 01:33:58 am: Yes it does

Err, yes it does. If Homesick is in \freespace2\homesick\ , you can use the Launcher to select \homesick\ as an active mod. -> The Launcher recognizes them.

The majority of this space is Blueplanet though, redundancy of me keeping a svn folder and the original install files etc.
