If you create an .MPQ and call it patch-2.MPQ, if the new patch creates its own .MPQ with that name it will merge them.Saturo wrote:Well, I was referring to modeledits, and AFAIK you still have to put those in an .MPQ, tough not necessarily the original ones, but something like Patch-4.
But MPQs won't be merged anymore?

Oh, and every patch that affects the MPQs merges them, and that's almost every patch.
Are we talking modelhacks or the sounds now? The sounds load just fine. Not my modelhacks.Kiingeh wrote:Saturo wrote:Yeah, but for my edits to load, I HAVE to put them in an MPQ.

Are you sure? Mine load without .MPQs and I haven't changed anything.

I was talking about both, but I thought they had changed it when they changed the sound files. You no longer need a fix for model edits, I know that much =PSaturo wrote:Are we talking modelhacks or the sounds now? The sounds load just fine.

Nope, I know that. :P But I'm pretty sure they still need to be in MPQs.Kiingeh wrote:I was talking about both, but I thought they had changed it when they changed the sound files. You no longer need a fix for model edits, I know that much =P

Ah, I haven't done any model edits since Warden was able to scan files.Saturo wrote:Nope, I know that.Kiingeh wrote:I was talking about both, but I thought they had changed it when they changed the sound files.

It's bound to happen when I'm participating. But you can avoid Warden easily, by not modifying the original files. Name the modelhacked new ones something like Patch-4 or Patch-A and they will work.Kiingeh wrote:Ah, I haven't done any model edits since Warden started scanning certain files.Saturo wrote:Nope, I know that. :P But I'm pretty sure they still need to be in MPQs.Kiingeh wrote:I was talking about both, but I thought they had changed it when they changed the sound files.

I think it only scans the default files, that excludes stuff you add afterwards. I believe it goes 1, 2, 3 and so forth. If it can't find 4, I think it skips further checks. That's why I name mine 5. But I'm not really familiar with how it scans, I've never had any problems at least.Kiingeh wrote:Saturo wrote:.It's bound to happen when I'm participating.

It still scans it doesn't it?
I know the campfire model is scanned now, even if you create another MPQ file and call it Patch-A, it will scan the file in Patch-A.MPQ and the one in Common.MPQ wont it?

Excelent, thanks. Maybe I'll set it to one of those sound files of a kitten trying to sound mean. "Rawr!".Kiingeh wrote:No more dragon roaring!

....this is making the roaring sound good.
