For getting patch compatible mods youve been using, since i dont have any of ithe menu.ini changes documented, i did this.

-Did a file comparison via winmerge from TMO's menu.ini to a stock 1.4 version

- copied the TMO changes into a txt file

- then opened the new menu.ini file and tried to find the blocks of code to the same ones in my text file. The address WILL be different, but the blocks of code still useable. If you search using the address from your old file, it will bring you CLOSE to the new address in the new file.

- dont do a mass copy and paste once youve found the correct location, rather, look closely and you'll see sequencing has changed between blocks. Just copy and past the correct info, to the correct address header.


As an aside, if you intend to keep a "stock gramophone" optional mod. STOP UPDATING thsi file when you reach the gramaphone section and back up what youve done to another location. THEN update the gramophone. I could just cry because i didnt do that.
