Title: avalanche WMRP puts everything in textures\ (they don't load)
Post by: Rundas on 2012-11-07 00:33:22

The team avalanche hi-res WMRP installer puts all the textures in the external textures folder and they dont load so i have to

1. enable "show missing textures"
2. play the game
3. check the app log
4. manually create proper folders in mods\ and place textures in correct folders


This is really annoying and time consuming. should they be loading from the textures folder? and if so, why aren't they?

The Avalanche installer uses a deprecated method of installing textures.
It modifies the textures in the .lgp files and causes them to point to the textures folder.
Use the other texture mods instead.  They are visually superior.
Only a few building textures are exclusive to the Avalanche installer.
