Krabb, please explain how JSGME adds "multi-hundred-megabytes" to the already sizable RA package. I'd really like to know, since it doesn't seem to be so apparent in LWAMI or AT. Plus, you don't need to include JSGME in the RA package to make it compatible with it. It could be downloaded separately.

Trust me; my internet connection is often wifi at Starbucks, but I still download RA. You imply that RA would need to include files we already have, but why? If RA is modding files in the folder it is placed within, then if placed in MODS, the required files could be copied over via the .bat to mod and remain there. If that will be sizable alongside the stock install, then so be it. RA takes space, but it's worth it.

I'm glad you found it entertaining. I only wish there were more plausible reasons as amusing.
