Multiple non-conflicting mods

[Bobingabout]

thats why i came up with the idea of a "newstuff" files, basicly, its a CSF, Mix or Bag containing only the newstuff, which then gets merged with what you already have. basicly its the same as adding new files, or strings, however, you first have to extract it from an existing distribution file. these are functions i'd use, and a newstuff.bag would be preferable for storing in your mod folders, because then its only 2 files to worry about, instead of potentially hundreds or thousands. which isn't friendly to indexing, or fragmentation.

for your mod installer maker program, it wouldn't be much of a problem to just insert all the files in the update installer, however, for costom installers, like what i use, its actually quite a nightmare. the way i make the installer, it basicly adds a couple of lines of code for every file. and moving those codes around would take a bit of effort if there are lots of them, as oposed to 1 or 2 mix files (probably ecache and expand), 1 csf and 1 bag/idx.

anyway, i kinda like the idea of the update consisting only of those 4/5 files.

(i'd like to see how that works, adding a "newstuff" bag, to the mods "newstuff" bag, lol, because then you have to add that newstuff bag to audio.bag)
