Hi NAZ2222
I'm not trying to upset you, but the above the order posted should be irrelevent.
Here's why:
Lets say we have a file - We'll use File A as an example - inside is 3 bits of data (a,c,e) - Giving File A(a,c,e)
Example_1 - Before/After installation - We have 3 mods no conflictions.
Mod 1 = file A(a,c,e) - file D(a,c,e) - file G(a,c,e)
Mod 2 = file B(a,c,e) - file E(a,c,e) - file H(a,c,e)
Mod 3 = file C(a,c,e) - file F(a,c,e) - file I(a,c,e)
Doesn't matter what order they are installed - no files are the same - no conflicts.
Example_2 - Before installation - We have 3 mods with conflictions.
Mod 1 = file A(b,c,e) - file D(a,c,e) - file G(a,c,e)
Mod 2 = file A(a,d,e) - file E(a,c,e) - file H(a,c,e)
Mod 3 = file A(a,c,f) - file F(a,c,e) - file I(a,c,e)
The file A is used by all the mods and so a confliction. Which ever mod is last installed will be the file A used. So if we install in same order we really actually get.
Example_2 - After installation.
Mod 1 = file A(a,c,f) - file D(a,c,e) - file G(a,c,e)
Mod 2 = file A(a,c,f) - file E(a,c,e) - file H(a,c,e)
Mod 3 = file A(a,c,f) - file F(a,c,e) - file I(a,c,e)
As Mod 3 was installed last, all the mods use file A(a,c,f) - This is not the same as Example_2 - Before installation as Mod 1 & Mod 2 have altered on installation. You can change the order but it only will change which file A the mods use.
This might not cause problems and you might not see a difference, but as you can see the mods will be changed.
