What's the string file for, if there are no new map names? Or did I forget something?
Anyway, suppose you find it necessary to replace stuff that's only read from langmd.mix (csf, pkt, credits, whatever. If you're patching the mix then may as well blow your own horn in the credits btw). Don't use a mod launcher. Remember, this is supposed to be a patch and not a mod, so it should look like a patch, right? Mods are evil, and they corrupt your game, and no self-respecting player capable of a good ranking on a ladder would play a mod, as we all know. Have the installer make a backup copy of langmd.mix, then patch the mix, and install expandmd02.mix. If the installer is run again, it deletes expandmd02.mix and langmd.mix (the patched one), and renames the backup back to langmd.mix. This is how the user patches his game and restores it if he wants. (And, a mod running XCCM/L won't nuke your CSF).
