Question about INI files : IV

» Sat May 07, 2011 1:50 pm

Does it matter if a mods ini file is in the Oblivion, Data or Data/Ini folder?
And will a mod find its ini file even if it the mod has become part of a merged mod?

The script in a mod looks for a specific path, from the ones I've looked at.

As in "Data/SM Combat Hide.ini" or "Data/Ini/kuerteeClothingMatters.ini"

Given that, the location definitely matters, but a merged mod should still be able to find the ini connected to it.

One good and one bad news, then.
The bad one being that BAIN won't properly install mods with INI files in the Data/Ini folder.

There's a fix for that somewhere.

Plus, I think the "has extra directories" option will allow the install as well.

Yes! That worked. Had almost forgotten about that.

I thought that there was no way to install INIs in the INI folder. What are all the complaints for if those INIs can still be installed. I will not this in my BAIN guide...new Bash surprises popping up everywhere this weekend...geez...

Edit: I just noticed I have Kuertee's Horse Commands mod installed, INI files in the INI folder and all, and I do not have "has extra directories" checked. What is up with that?
